Philips Brilliance has also received Vesa’s DisplayHDR 600 certification, which means that it supports HDR10 – one of the first standards of the HDR format. Although it is not an HDR10 +, it offers great video transmission quality and also for games.

Generally, brighter lights are brighter, so they can cause damage to the eyes – in addition to affecting a person’s sleep quality. To prevent this problem, Philips has also implemented the Night Shift LowBlue Mode, which helps to reduce the amount of blue (white) light rays emitted by the monitor.
