Philips 170S9A 17" Monitor

Studies have indicated that exposure to shortwave length blue light rays emitted from LED displays can lead to eye damage and impact vision over time, similar to the harmful effects of ultraviolet (UV) rays. In order to prioritize user well-being, Philips has developed the LowBlue Mode setting, which utilizes intelligent software technology to reduce the harmful impact of shortwave blue light. Additionally, LED-backlit screens can sometimes cause flickering, resulting in eye fatigue for certain individuals. To address this issue, Philips has introduced Flicker-free Technology, a solution that regulates brightness and minimizes flickering to provide a more comfortable viewing experience. Through the utilization of SmartImage, an innovative technology exclusive to Philips, users are able to optimize their display performance based on the content being shown on the screen. With various modes available such as Office, Photo, Movie, Game, and Economy, users can select the most suitable setting for their specific application. SmartImage dynamically adjusts contrast, color saturation, and sharpness of images and videos in real time, offering enhanced display performance. Moreover, the Economy mode option facilitates significant power savings with just a single button press. Philips' SmartContrast technology further enhances the user's visual experience by automatically adjusting colors and controlling backlight intensity to improve contrast, particularly in digital images and videos, as well as games featuring dark hues. When Economy mode is activated, contrast and backlighting are adjusted to optimize display for everyday office tasks and reduce power consumption.
