The Philips Consumer Monitor meets several demands: it fulfils contemporary requirements in technology, its design communicates high performance and it blends in with modern homes at the same time. The stand in particular fits the latter requirement well, thanks to its visual lightness. Details on the monitor, for instance the height adjustment and the back cover, complete the pleasant overall impression. Where possible, only metal has been used for the monitor and the stand in order to increase the ecological compatibility of the device.
