Philips have introduced their newest eco-friendly widescreen monitor in the form of the 22” Philips Brilliance 225P1ES which, thanks to boasting PowerSensor technology, is capable, according to Philips, of cutting power consumption by up to 70% when compared with similar specified displays.
The integrated PowerSensor basically takes the form of a infrared sensor that served to detect when you’re seated before the Brilliance 225P1ES and, should it establish that you’ve gone walk-abouts and not turned your screen off (tut tut) it’ll step in to reduce the display’s brightness which will see up to a 50% reduction in power usage – though quite why the sensor doesn’t act to power down the screen entirely is beyond us (this would save more power, after all). Add into this the monitor’s other power saving features taking in ‘efficient power supplies and reduction in components’ and you should see up to 70% reduction in power usage, according to Philips, which, in truth, is certainly a keen selling point in an age where we are all (mostly) looking to do our bit for this rock of ours.

In terms of specifications the 16:10 aspect ratio Philips Brilliance 225P1ES widescreen monitor is not quite as exciting, certainly, but that’s not to say it doesn’t offer a pretty solid range of figures in offering a maximum resolution of 1680 x 1050, a contrast ratio of 1000:1 (Philips’ Smart Contrast technology apparently boosting this to some 25,000:1, a brightness of 250 cd/m² and a response time of 5ms (which is adequate if no outstanding if you’re looking at this monitor from a gaming perspective).
The Philips Brilliance 225P1ES Widescreen ECO Monitor, which additionally boasts integrated stereo speakers offering 1.5W apiece and which, in terms of connectivity, comes offers up VGA, DVI-D and an onboard USB 2.0 port, is set to release imminently in Europe and will set you back a pretty reasonable €229 exclusive of tax.
