Review: Phillips 328E9FJAB-At 2460X1440 max resolution. Excellent all-around monitor for average home use. - Please take note of this model number. as this review only covers this specific monitor at 2460 x 1440 and it does not address higher res 4K monitors. Aside from the excellent picture quality does not give any relevant info regarding any other Model. $299 - It was well-packaged and there are no bad pixels. That's about right. A fine monitor at a good price if you are not buying it for Gaming. A VA panel with 1 Display Port, 1 HDMI, with 1 D-Sub (VGA). Ships with 16:9 native resolution 2560 x 1440 that is good for Display Port, HDMI; VGA is 1920 x 1080. For me, 2K is the best resolution that gives a fair amount of screen real estate without text being too small. For gaming, 4k gives you the big picture for sizing up the battlefield, so this is not a gaming monitor. With fonts at 11 and MS Word page view set to 100 %, I can squeeze in the sides of the Word borders so they are just touching the edges of an 8 1/2 x 11 page. That just fits 3 separate Word documents left to right across the screen leaving a few inches of background at the bottom of a single page; or - within Word a single document will easily automatically fill the screen with three consecutive pages. With a little mouse work, I can get 4 File Explorer frames on the screen only showing Name, Size, (Size Column moved over next to Name), and Date Modified. I can copy, cut, paste files in and out of four simultaneous onscreen panels. A 21:9, 34 inch 4k monitor would fit more, but my brain can only do so much. I can chew gum and walk, but that's about it. Text in Word looked good with my eyes about 27" away from the screen. For my use, I can't see that smaller size is practical and practical is what I want. With the VESA mounting arm I could move it closer if I choose. With a 34 inch or larger screen moving to a higher res or larger monitor in any closer is a trade-off . Audio is Line in and Audio Out, or output from HDMI and Display Port. I just plug my headphones into a 3.5mm extension cable so I don't have to reach but a few inches to plug into the Audio out. Volume control is adjustable via the OSD Menu. I set the OSD volume at max and use the PC Volume Control. It works good with my Headset. This monitor comes with an HDMI and a VGA cable only so you'll need to supply your own Display Port cable. Out of the box the upright part of the stand is already attached. Just use the attached Thumbscrew on the Base to attach it. Whatever the Input, it's a great picture with the defaults except for Brightness. The Windows 8.1 Settings Main page is a relatively little amount of print with about 90% white background. Zowie! I was seeing fireflies, should've put on sunglasses. Turned Brightness down from 100 to 45. Ahh, that's better, didn't have to mess with anything else. A word about screen size. Recall it's measured diagonally, 31.5 inches for this monitor. If Measured straight across edge to edge, it's 28 inches. Factor in the 3/8 border and you lose 3/4 inch, so actual screen width is 27.25 inches. Still, a good size monitor. A 32 inch monitor at 21:9 is wider than at 16:9. Picture the diagonals in your mind. Few monitor screens actually meet up with the thin bezel edge. Most have a thin border. If you want the User Manual, typically, you must download it online. You can go online to the manufacture and download a User Manual to find the dimensions of any monitor before you buy. I downloaded and checked it out to determine if I wanted to buy. Reading the Manual was crucial in my decision as it answered just about every question I had. The Manual is a good way to get all the detailed specs, inputs, weight, frequency, resolution. It showed a menu tree of all the available selections, how to use the OSD reveals the inner workings such as compatibility; PBP, PIP, (or not, as is the case with this monitor). What I was also able to determine pre-purchase was that the OSD menu buttons are in the middle at the bottom on the back side of the monitor opposite the Logo. That makes it the same for both Right and Left-handed users, i.e. more comfortable for Lefties. The single button is larger than most; hold for three seconds to turn it off. The button acts in joystick fashion. I was a little clumsy at first, but it didn't take long for it to feel familiar. Takes less than three seconds to change inputs. I prefer this single button joystick type action to the multi-buttons along the bottom of other monitors. I have three inputs, three Computers. One with Display Port, one with HDMI, my Mac Mini has both, i.e. mini Display Port with a 6 inch adapter cable, or Mini Display Port adapted to VGA so I used the VGA Input from the Mac. Most anything 2012 or later, PC or Mac will have HDMI 1.4 or Display Port 1.2 outputs, all that's needed for this monitor. In my case, less is more. Without all the high-end specs, this monitor is very stable, will work with onboard graphics. Might have to change Bios to IGFX. Bios Default of PCIe x 16 number 1 slot usually works in any case. it should work right out of the box with most any computer, plug and play, but, it's likely you will turn down the brightness If you have two Computers, chances are they both have HDMI Ports. Phillips chose to cover all the bases. VGA displays at 1920 x 1080. HDMI to VGA Adapters are cheap and plentiful if you have to use the VGA. My 3 computers with three different outputs all work right out of the box utilizing all three ports. My Mac, using a mini-Display Port to VGA adapter, the screen really looks beautiful on the Mac at the lower resolution but it may become a game changer. I'll use it some to determine that. There are relatively few 32 inch 2K curved monitors available with VESA Mounts. I'm puzzled some don't provide VESA mounting. 2 HDMI inputs. That's the industry standard with every other 2K monitor, but Phillips had broadened the scale by providing three different inputs that cover all the bases, but, again, The display's native resolution is only for Display Port and HDMI. Whatever your computer, this monitor is plug and play. It is not at all finicky. It's pretty bare bones, 59 HZ max vertical frequency; not enough for serious gaming. What it is, as my heading forecasts, a good monitor for home use. e.g. If I do a jigsaw puzzle of 400 pieces, there's enough room around the sides to sort and stack the pieces, leaving the puzzle area clean and open. Gaming? Yeah, Mah Jong, Solitaire and Jigsaw is about my speed. A pleasure to indulge in these diversions as the picture quality is first rate, to the point that compared to another monitor with higher specs, you wont be able see much, if any, difference; not enough to consider spending the extra money. At any price, the picture quality is more than satisfactory. The VESA mounting holes are 100mm. No VESA mounting screws supplied and the stand mounting screws are too short. This is typical. Not their problem; though you may have to waste some gasoline finding the right-sized screws, i.e. 4 x 10mm. Luckily, I had some standoffs and long screws supplied with my mounting stand or it would have been an Easter Egg hunt to find the right hardware. The mounting plate fastened without any bending and it easily slid right down onto the VESA mounting arm plate. Ideally, the screws should insert about 1/4 inch (6-8mm) into the monitor. In the final analysis, it is often how much money and/or how much time and effort that decides for us. Overall, Phillips Manual did provide a lot of good pre-sale information, better than most, but the manual clearly shows analog input, (VGA) as 2560x1440 Res. Maybe it is on a later model Mac, but my 2012 Mac Mini gets 2560x1440 out of the Display Port only, 1920 x 1080 from VGA adaptor. Nothing wrong with the monitor; most likely, whoever wrote the manual got it wrong. This caused me to think of whether I would send it back as I wanted 2560x1440 for all three computers. I have 1 DP cable. my Mac Mini sits a little behind and above my Lenovo laptop. Mini sits backwards with rear ports facing towards me Mini Display Port is about 8 inches away from Lenovo Port. Very easy to swap the cable between the two. I decide to leave the Mini with VGA and Laptop with Display Port. 1920x1080 on the Mac is just gorgeous, and the big screen works for all that I do on the Mac. If needed I can use the DP cable. Though it's handy to have both at the same res, it's not all that necessary. HDMI from my desktop is native res and switching inputs of all three is easily accomplished. 34 inch gaming monitor with 21:9 would have PBP, but I decided I don't need it. Buying a monitor is very subjective. There's no getting around the fact that you can't always decide fresh out of the box and you don't always get all the information you need from the online ads. I had to use it a while in real world daily usage to make up my mind. Returning a big monitor takes some effort, as you have to clean the screen and send it back packaged EXACTLY as you got it and probably have to pay 40-50 dollars to ship. If you just say that you don't like the monitor, you may not be able to return without paying a premium. My experience is it's easier to buy a computer than a monitor. Also, monitor manufacturers aim at the PC market. Mac Graphics on older Mini's are not as broad-based as PC's and MacBooks have their own specific monitor specs, so, if it works with PC, but not the same on a Mac... Conclusion: I did not have any problem with the operation of the monitor; it just works, I especially like the large, curved screen. It is, as they say, an immersive experience. I have some beautiful background pics. With such great picture quality; became enraptured; I got lost in one of them. Wow, so beautiful, even at 1920 x 1080, a whole other level of experience. My lone Con; only has 1 instead of 2 hdmi inputs, not a problem with only 1 Computer. Worst case for two computers, if needed you can get a $90.00 Geforce GT1080 card to provide a Display Port, while HDMI 1.4 or higher is standard on most recent Macs or PC's. I needed a steady work horse, not a thoroughbred racer. Something useful. This monitor more than fits the bill Walter O. Review: Great upgrade for the every day user (Not a huge gamer so can't speak too much to that) - I've recently moved away form using a PC Tower that I've had for a while. I have a 2018 Macbook Pro 13" and a work laptop. Between the two of them I rarely use my PC anymore. I am not a big gamer. For the little gaming I do I usually play my Xbox one and hook it up to my 55" 4K TV. I will say that the screen real estate on this screen and the curved glass is simply awesome. I am still adjusting to having such a large screen. I would say if you have a short desk (Maybe under 27" Deep, you may want to think twice on this monitor. It's rather large and that's nice but if your eyes are less than 24" from the screen I feel it would be too big. Just my opinion. Set up was easy. Stand works great (Not mounted) and is adjustable, and the screen is fantastic. I am really impressed that a monitor of this size and capabilities is so cheap (Paid $279.00 on desertcart). I have run some Youtube videos at 4K resolution, which of course doesn't display in 4K on this monitor, but it is very sharp and crisp. Colors are great and the experience is top notch. I hope to get more into photo and video editing this year. Will update to see how the monitor holds up to that when I do but I'm impressed for starters. Using solely as an external display for my Macbook Pro (USB to HDMI). If you can get this for less than $300.00 I say go for it. ## Features - Philips e-line 32" (31. 5 viewable) LED monitor with full HD 1920x1080 - Curved VA panel for wide-viewing angles and accurate color reproduction with immersive viewing experience - Philip Ultra Wide-Color technology with 128% sRGB & 102% NTSC color gamut coverage.Brightness:250 cd/mΒ² - 5ms response time, 75Hz refresh rate and AMD FreeSync technology provides fluid, artifact-free gaming performance - Hdmi, DisplayPort, VGA, and audio in & out connectivity + Built-in speakers and wall mountable (VESA compatible) - Peace OF mind: Philips monitors come with 4-year advance replacement in the United States, minimizing downtime - 3-Sided frameless design with ultra-narrow borders allow for minimal distractions and optimal multi-monitor setup - LowBlue mode reduces harmful shortwave blue light for your wellbeing + Flicker-Free technology regulates brightness and reduces eye fatigue ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07KQXJLF7 | | Adaptive Sync | FreeSync | | Additional Features | Curved, Flicker-Free, Frameless, Ultrawide Screen, Wall Mountable | | Aspect Ratio | 16:9 | | Best Sellers Rank | #264,054 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #5,287 in Computer Monitors | | Brand | Philips | | Brightness | 250 cd/mΒ² | | Color | Black | | Color Gamut | 122.80 | | Connectivity Technology | HDMI | | Contrast Ratio | 20,000,000:1 | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,825 Reviews | | Display Resolution Maximum | 1920 x 1080 Pixels | | Display Technology | LED | | Display Type | LED | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 4 Years | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00609585252554 | | Hardware Connectivity | DisplayPort, HDMI, VGA | | Has Color Screen | Yes | | Image Contrast Ratio | 20,000,000:1 | | Item Type Name | Computer Monitor | | Item Weight | 14.95 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Envision Peripherals | | Model Name | E9 | | Model Number | 328E9QJAB | | Mounting Type | Wall Mount | | Native Resolution | 1920x1080 | | Picture Quality Enhancement Technology | SmartImage game | | Refresh Rate | 75 Hz | | Resolution | FHD 1080p | | Response Time | 5 Milliseconds | | Screen Finish | Glossy | | Screen Size | 32 Inches | | Screen Surface Description | Glossy | | Shape | Rectangular | | Specific Uses For Product | Business, Gaming, Personal | | Total Number of HDMI Ports | 1 | | UPC | 609585252554 | | Viewing Angle | 178 Degrees | | Warranty Description | 4 Year Advance Replacement, 4 Years Parts and Labor | ## Product Details - **Aspect Ratio:** 16:9 - **Brand:** Philips - **Resolution:** FHD 1080p - **Screen Size:** 32 Inches - **Screen Surface Description:** Glossy ## Images ![Philips Computer Monitors 328E9QJAB 32" curved frameless monitor, Full HD VA, 128% sRGB, FreeSync, 75Hz, VESA, 4Yr Advance Replacement Warranty, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/812JVKiianL.jpg) ![Philips Computer Monitors 328E9QJAB 32" curved frameless monitor, Full HD VA, 128% sRGB, FreeSync, 75Hz, VESA, 4Yr Advance Replacement Warranty, Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/812pxFKbB8L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern, Size, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Phillips 328E9FJAB-At 2460X1440 max resolution.

If you can get this for less than $300.00 I say go for it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Level 2 Monitor *by S***N on January 2, 2020* For Gaming: 100%, absolutely, yes! I've spent years gaming on a TV, a few weeks on a small 27 inch monitor, and finally, this monitor. This gives that high definition that you've been missing out or hearing about. The image is beautiful, pristine and in 75 hertz. You'll thank yourself for making the big move to switch over from TV to Curved/Flat Monitor. Picture Quality: Unless you're unfamiliar with curved monitors, the product is curved to protect your eyes, preventing you from getting eye strain and headaches. I bring this up, because you'll more than likely be watching a movies, games or just browsing the web for hours using this. The picture quality is perfect, and grants great visuals for your pleasure. 5/5 Brightness: Bright but not the "white film" stretched across the monitor. Not to mention you can adjust the settings for this monitor quiet easily. 5/5 Audio: Loud enough for a small to medium sized room. This can be heard loud enough for all kinds of experiences. Gaming, movies, tv shows, music, etc --- this monitor can blast it loud enough that you'll have to talk over it if need be. 5/5 Overall, the monitor isn't PERFECT, but honestly, it's a 92/100. I mean, the audio is loud enough without sounding distorted, the visual/picture quality of everything you see is crystal clear, and to top it all, it's curved, so its going to be great for your eyes. On a scale of "Levels" (Level 1 being beginner, 2 intermediate, 3 boss, etc), i would rank this as Level 2. This isn't just a normal or simple monitor. The product is expensive for all the right reasons. ## Frequently Bought Together - Philips Computer Monitors 328E9QJAB 32" Curved Frameless Monitor, Full HD VA, 128% sRGB, FreeSync, 75Hz, VESA, 4Yr Advance Replacement Warranty, Black - Logitech MK270 Wireless Keyboard And Mouse Combo For Windows, 2.4 GHz Wireless, Compact Mouse, 8 Multimedia And Shortcut Keys, For PC, Laptop - Black - Logitech MK345 Wireless Combo Full-Sized Keyboard with Palm Rest and Comfortable Right-Handed Mouse, 2.4 GHz Wireless USB Receiver, Compatible with PC, Laptop,Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/107189653-philips-computer-monitors-328e9qjab-32-curved-frameless-monitor-full-hd](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/107189653-philips-computer-monitors-328e9qjab-32-curved-frameless-monitor-full-hd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
