The MMD brand Philips is planning a new S-Line business monitor for office purposes. The Philips 272S9JAL 27-inch VA monitor has a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels (Full HD) at a maximum of 75 Hz and promises a 4000:1 contrast ratio.

The response time is 4 ms (grey to gray), the brightness is 300 cd/m², and the color depth is 8 bits. The new Philips monitor also features Adaptive-Sync (probably without LFC), two internal 2-watt speakers, and wide sRGB coverage.
On the interface side, HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort 1.2, VGA, a USB 3.2 hub (Gen 1), a headphone output, and a microphone input are offered. In terms of ergonomics, you have to be satisfied with the tilt, VESA mount (100 x 100 mm), blue light filtering, and flicker-free backlight.
Depending on the operating mode, the power consumption of the new office monitor is between 12.1 and 16.5 watts. The business monitor is mercury-free, made from 85 percent recycled plastic, and comes in packaging made from 100 percent recyclable materials.

Philips 272S9JAL business monitor has been priced at £169.99 and is listed on the Amazon.co.uk online store.
