The Philips partners have gone official with the 326M6FJSB monitor. This display comes packing Ambiglow immersive lighting effects, Ultra Wide-Color Technology, SmartImage Game mode, and Flicker-free technology.

The 326M6FJSB is the perfect monitor for both home entertainment and productivity.

Ambiglow

Philips Ambiglow technology adds a new dimension to your viewing experience.

This innovative technology virtually enlarges the display by creating a halo of light around the edges of your screen.

You can adjust the ambience according to your preferences.

Ambiglow is particularly nifty when used with movies and games.

Ultra Wide-Color

As well as Ambiglow, the monitor also supports Philips’ Ultra Wide-Color tech.

The IPS panel also provides extra wide viewing angles of 178/178 degrees, making it possible to view the display from almost any angle.

Gaming

For gamers, Philips has equipped the 326M6FJSB with a new SmartImage Game mode. This offers unique customisable options you can dial in to match the genre of game you’re playing.

FPS (First-person shooting) mode

This improves dark themes in games, allowing gamers to see hidden objects in dark areas.

Racing mode

This enables the fastest response time the monitor can deliver. Furthermore, you get high colour, along with other image adjustments.

RTS (Real-time strategy) mode

Here you get a special SmartFrame mode which enables gamers to highlight specific areas and allows for size and image adjustments.

Eye care

The display also features a LowBlue mode and Philips Flicker-free technology for the most enjoyable viewing experience possible.

Developed for wellbeing, LowBlue mode works to reduce harmful shortwave blue light that can cause eye damage and affect vision over time.

Flicker-free technology also reduces eye fatigue and regulates the screen’s brightness for more comfortable viewing.

Price and availability

The Philips 326M6FJSB 32-inch QHD monitor retails for $379.99 MSRP, but is currently available at Micro Center for the discounted promotional price of $299.99.

I am awaiting details of UK availability.
