Furthermore, it features built-in speakers, allowing users to enjoy audio without the need for additional external speakers.

The monitor’s design emphasizes ergonomics and user comfort, as it offers adjustable height, tilt, and swivel features, enabling users to customize their viewing experience. This is particularly beneficial for users who spend long hours in front of their screens, as it helps to reduce fatigue and strain on the eyes and neck.

Eco-friendliness is also a significant aspect of the Philips 230WP7.
