An affordable all-in-one monitor with a curved 31.5-inch FullHD display, enhanced static contrast ratio and a stylish thin bezel design. The manufacturer is positioned as a product of the average colour category of 2019. The main feature of this model is the curvature of the screen, the radius of which is 1500 mm. This geometry effectively compensates for optical distortions that are noticeable on flat screens of large diagonals due to the imperfection of human vision.
The large pixel size (0.36 mm) allows you to position the screen further from the user's eyes, which has a positive effect on the level of chronic muscle tension of the lens. In addition, the large pixel makes it possible to form images that do not cause discomfort to users suffering from farsightedness. The screen of the Philips 322E1C monitor uses a high-quality eight-bit MVA-matrix with a resolution of 1920x1080, a response time of 4 ms and Flicker-Free W-LED backlight without tiring flicker. The advantages also include an increased static contrast ratio of 3000: 1 and excellent viewing angles. The monitor is equipped with an ergonomic removable stand with a variable angle of inclination. D-sub VGA, HDMI 1.4 and DVI-D ports are provided for connecting to a signal source.
Large and versatile curved monitor
A couple of years ago, Phillips got serious about revamping its monitor lineup and was able to get back into the big game. This time we got a Philips 322E1C model for testing, which, in addition to its low price (it is sold for $220 in some stores), is distinguished by a curved matrix. The radius of curvature of the Philips 322E1C is 1500 mm, which, according to the company's logic, is the optimal geometry. Such curvature of the display effectively compensates for the optical distortions that are noticeable on flat screens of large diagonals due to the imperfection of human vision.
Decent image quality by the standards of inexpensive monitors
The Philips 322E1C monitor is equipped with a 32-inch VA panel with a resolution of 1920x1080, which allows it to display a 16:9 picture with a high pixel density. The screen refresh rate of 75Hz supports a statistical contrast ratio of 3000:1. The monitor response time is 4ms. Like other Philips monitors, the 322E1C model is made in a laconic, not too catchy style: a neat square stand, a chrome-plated leg, thin bezels around the display, and that's it. Visually, the eye has nothing to catch on, so the monitor does not draw attention to itself and will fit into any interior. Despite the visual fragility of the stand, in fact the monitor with it stands rooted to the spot on the table. This is a definite plus.
Problems with uneven backlighting
Well, the main disadvantage of the Philips 322E1C is the backlight unevenness, which entry-level monitors often suffer from. In the case of the Philips 322E1C, it all depends on the specific sample, some have barely noticeable glare, while others have to carry it back to the store. So be vigilant. If we put together a low price, a large diagonal, a curved matrix and generally decent picture quality and colour reproduction, the Philips 322E1 seems to us an interesting candidate for the role of a large work monitor or multimedia centre, which does not require miracles of colour reproduction or response speed.
