The built-in VA panel has a resolution of 3440 x 1440 pixels (UWQHD, 21:9) at up to 120 Hz, is curved at 1500 R, achieves a 4000:1 contrast, and features Adaptive Sync as anti-tearing technology.

Other key specs include 8-bit color depth, 120% sRGB, 300 cd/m² brightness, 4 ms response time (gray to gray), a Delta-E value of less than 2, and a power consumption of 20.5 watts (eco mode). Two internal 5-watt speakers provide the sound.

On the interface side, there are two HDMI 2.0 inputs, a DisplayPort 1.4, an RJ-45 socket, a USB 3.2 hub, and a combo socket for headphones and a microphone. USB-C with DisplayPort alternate mode and 96-watt PD is also available.

HDMI supports only version 2.0, limiting the refresh rate to 100 Hz on these connections. To achieve the full 120 Hz, you’ll need to use DisplayPort or USB-C. It features a side headphone hook and weighs 7.64 kg without the stand.

In addition to docking station functionality, the Philips 34B2U5600C offers a smart KVM switch and picture-in-picture or picture-by-picture modes. The screen also has tilt, rotation, height adjustment, VESA mount (100 x 100 mm), blue light filtering, and flicker-free backlighting.
