Zero Bright Dot™ 

Bright dots are defects in a LCD panel once thought to be an 
inevitable part of the manufacturing process. With Zero Bright 
Dot™, Philips monitors are guaranteed without dot defects.

Fast response time

The amount of time it takes for a liquid crystal cell to go from 
active (black) to inactive (white) and back to active (black) again.
It is measured in milliseconds. Lower numbers mean faster 
transitions and therefore results in fewer visible image artifacts.

SXGA, 1280 x 1024 resolution 

For graphics monitors, the screen resolution signifies the number 
of dots (pixels) on the entire screen. For example, a 
1280-by-1024 pixel screen is capable of displaying 1280 distinct 
dots on each of 1024 lines, or about 1.3 million pixels.

Dual Input

Connectors to accommodate input of both analog VGA and digital 
DVI signals.

sRGB ready

Calibrated RGB that is optimized for the vast majority of computer 
peripherals, monitors, operating systems and browsers, allowing 
accurate color mapping with very little data overhead.

Built-in Speakers

Audio speakers built into a display device.

Adjustable height

The ability to set your monitor to the most pleasurable viewing 
height.  Height adjustment makes computer work more comfortable 
and reduces fatigue or eyestrain, even when you spend long hours 
working on the computer.  It makes you more productive.

Screen tilt and swivel

Movement of a screen to attain the ideal viewing angle.

Cable management

A system for organizing cables and wires required for the operation 
of a display device to have a tidy work space.

SmartManage

A system for monitoring, managing and checking status of display 
devices as well as delivering remote support to users who experience 
difficulties all accomplished over a LAN.

Lower power consumption

Reduction of the electrical power required to operate a device.

Kensington anti-theft lock

A security device that fixes the monitor in place to prevent theft.

Embedded power supply

A power adaptor built into the body of a display device that 
replaces a bulky external power adaptor.

VESA mounting holes

A unified industry standard for wall mounting IT equipment set by 
the Video Electronics Standards Association.

FlexiHolder

A slim groove that improves efficiency by holding reminder notes, 
documents, name cards, and photos on the top of monitor to be 
more efficient.
