I didn't see this being advertised at all in any of the Black Friday ads? Where did you read this?
In the Best buy Canadian Flyer
I bought the Philips. I just couldn't resist the price, considering 1440p monitors sell for this much normally here in Canada.

Hey do any of you guys intend to Calibrate your displays with a meter? I was thinking of maybe going down that route.
Are you planning on gaming across all three screens? I only ask because I game on a single 4K screen an my setup cannot sustain good FPS on Ultra settings in most new title, I hope you aren't expecting a similar setup to blast 3X those pixels!
If it does run well, tell me your secret!
kllswithch...good on those titans...i thought about it, but i dont game enough to justify; the memory should help.
kazeo...most of my computerwork is productivity/multitasking/VMs, etc...if I do any gaming, I will probably window or scale 3x1080p
hey guys, could you advise me good settings for this monitor? bright, contrast, RGB and so on. I'm working in a dark room and with my blind eyes not sure that i configured monitor with good colors thanks
Hi all,
I just picked one of these up from the Canadian Best Buy sale and noticed two things:
1. VA glow appears to be worse on the bottom left corner, and
2. There is a speck of dust in the upper left hand corner.
Does anybody else's panel have these issues? Should I try an exchange?
Thanks
Edit: Some pictures of what I am talking about.

I'm not sure how TFT can produce a pure black screen shot.
Has anyone tried one of the 4K OLED TVs as a computer monitor? Wondering if they suffer from input lag or any other common TV vs monitor distinctions?

I have one of those "dust specs" in the lower-center area of my screen, which I only noticed about a week ago while cleaning it.
I definitely don't have VA glow on mine as severe as yours. VA artifacts are minimal and uniformity is extremely good. Is your camera making the effect more pronounced?
Is there some sort of IR blaster for the RS232 input ? I would really like to configure PIP/PBP via remote, not the joystick on the back. PS: I refuse to install Philips SmartControl Premium, as it causes instability with the already wonky nvidia win10 drivers.
if you find something please let me know
Well I've already ordered a RS232 to usb cable and am planning to make a C++ Win10 universal app for it. (my server pc is connected to it that's always on and I can simply remote desktop to it with my nexus 6 or win10 tablet)
That's not the greatest, but I've seen worse.Due to the natural of backlight, flash light shaped bleed will occur over long time of use.

TFT central's recommended 38% brightness is too low for me. I set it to 52% to achieve 120cd/m2 brightness. The rest of setting I followed TFT central. Great image quality. Great value for $699 CAD.
That's not the greatest, but I've seen worse.
I also got mine for $699 CAD and have been using it for about a week now.
This is my first 4k monitor and while the 40" size is great (actually not too big), I'm not fully satisfied with it. Here's some pros/cons.
Pros:
- 40" 4k is great for everyday use. Not too big.
- No coil sound. Dead silent compared to my U3011
- Slim bezels are nice.
- Gaming is great. I don't notice any input lag.
Cons:
- I didn't think the color shift would bother me as much, but it does. Depending on your angle, it just looks washed out.
- Mine came with a minor scratch on the screen which isn't noticeable when using the monitor, but I know it's there, so I plan on replacing or just returning it one time.
- Blacks aren't as black as I thought they would be.
- Screen is a bit to glossy for me.
- Currently have it setup on my desk, but would need to buy a longer display port cable, and right angle power cable to wall mount. Also don't like where the connectors are placed.
- Watching videos that are not 4k don't look that great imo.
I just don't know if this monitor is worth the $699 CAD ($800 total). I'm debating whether or not I should keep this monitor or return it and go back to my Dell U3011 for the time being and wait until next year to get either a 1440p 75+hz g-sync / freesync , or some other 40" with a higher refresh rate.
I keep hearing how a refresh rate of 75+ is really noticeable and that people can't go back to 60hz. Also how g-sync / freesync is worth it. So while this Phillips monitor is a good upgrade in terms of size, I just don't know if I should keep it.......
I have exchanged 3 units so far due to backlight bleed. The most recent one I have only has minor bleed (or glow) so I'm keeping it. The problem is, all 3 units suffer horizontal banding on the center of the screen. It's only noticeable when viewing from a dark grey image. I'm not sure if I should return it. I doubt I can find any monitor without any problems, since I can only notice it at a dark grey image,
