Philips BDM4065UC
This screen offers exceptional image quality, especially when calibrated, and several of its screen modes work well. Its huge size is impressive and makes the screen more manageable than denser, smaller 4K panels, but the 40-inch diagonal works against it, too – it dominates desks, and there are no adjustment options. Consider whether you really need a 40-inch monitor before taking the plunge.

The huge Philips BDM4065UC is a great display for anyone that needs a very large desktop monitor, or perhaps to serve as a screen in a PC home-cinema system. It has outstanding contrast ratio and good colour accuracy, a winner in almost every way although some users may find the uneven lighting and subtle flicker a little off-putting.

The Philips BDM4065UC is a big, bold and brash screen. A true beast of a monitor that took a bit of getting used to, but that provided a pleasing experience once this ‘adjustment' process was complete. Its large size is complimented by a 3840 x 2160...
