This monitor brings brilliant color, connectivity, and a package of other features that level up anyone's workspace. The Philips 27B2U6903, the latest addition to the Philips business monitor line-up, comes with state-of-the-art technology, such as UHD 4K resolution and Thunderbolt 4 connectivity, which aim to make anybody's everyday tasks smoother and of better quality.

For professionals looking to improve their online visual experience, this monitor is an ideal fit. Not only is its IPS LED panel equipped with a powerful 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) resolution, but it also has 1.07 billion colors and covers a wide color gamut allowing colors to come to life on screen. Another top-notch feature listed on the Philips 27B2U6903 is Thunderbolt 4 connectivity. Not only is this a powerhouse of a feature on its own, but it is especially suited for business. All through one connection, users can build a dual-screen setup via daisy-chaining, transfer data to external devices at superfast speed, and charge connected devices at a power of up to 100 W. Also in the mix for the connectivity is the monitor's Ethernet connection via RJ45, which enables users to access a stable wired network connection at a higher bandwidth via Thunderbolt 4 or USB-C.



One of the latest technological advancements on the Philips 27B2U6903's feature profile is the PowerSensor 2. When compared to the original PowerSensor, the PowerSensor 2 further enhances power-saving capabilities by automatically putting the monitor and the connected computer to sleep mode when the user walks away from the screen and waking both devices when the user is detected again. By locking the connected computer in sleep mode, the new PowerSensor 2 brings improved security for the user during the user's absence. There are only two requirements to activate the PowerSensor 2's energy-saving function: Windows 11 must be installed and the monitor's OSD setting must be switched to "User".

Additional features of the Philips 27B2U6903
The Philips 27B2U6903 is full of other features that make it shine. Apart from its visuals and connectivity, this business monitor is equipped with additional aspects that are meant to make the working day easier. One of the best examples is the Smart KVM feature: Users can effectively switch between sources via the monitor bezel's hotkey or by pressing the "Ctrl" key on their keyboard three times.

Also, to offer a comfortable posture during long hours in front of the computer, the stand of the Philips 27B2U6903 is height adjustable, and it can tilt, pivot, as well as swivel to cater to the users' personal settings.

Prices and availability of the Philips 27B2U6903
By combining all these features into one monitor, it is easy to see why the Philips 27B2U6903 can be the ideal and effective solution for your workspace.

This monitor will be available for purchase from September 2024 and at an MSRP of £449.99.
