Conclusion
...4K resolution works well at this size, and Philips enhances the overall package with a couple of value-adds.The Philips Brilliance 329P1H offers plenty of potential as a competent, well-rounded and productive home-office upgrade.
A large 32in panel with good colour coverage and out-the-box accuracy is an obvious attraction, the crisp 4K resolution works well at this size, and Philips enhances the overall package with a couple of value-adds.
Being able to charge a USB-C laptop and share peripherals as well as wired Internet access via the docking station is a genuinely helpful addition, the presence of a pop-up Windows Hello webcam is welcome in this age of working from home, and our list of criticisms remains relatively small. The base of the stand is bulky, we'd like to be able to stow the webcam without lowering the entire display, and as a sign of the times, limited stock and inflated prices contrive to diminish the monitor's appeal.
Bottom line: the Philips Brilliance 329P1H ought to be worthy of consideration, but you might be waiting a while to find it at the quoted £519 MSRP.
