AI-generated summary
The Philips 242B9TL/00 is one of those “practical touchscreen office” monitors that tends to make sense when you actually need touch in day-to-day work. If you’re equipping reception areas, training rooms, light retail/queue systems, or anyone who regularly interacts with displays (not just views them), the touch functionality can remove friction and save you from buying a separate interactive setup. For a 23.8" Full HD screen, you’re also in the sweet spot for desks and shared spaces—big enough for spreadsheets and documents, but not so huge that it becomes awkward to place on standard office stands.
That said, I wouldn’t buy it for a typical office “productivity-only” role where touch isn’t essential. At ~£373 ex-VAT, you’re paying a premium that usually buys better panel quality, higher resolution, or more ergonomic features on non-touch alternatives. Also, touchscreens in offices can be a mixed bag long-term—fingerprints, smudges, and the fact that lots of teams simply revert to mouse/keyboard use after the novelty wears off. If your users genuinely need touch every day, this is a solid, dependable choice. If not, it’s probably better value to spend that money on a non-touch monitor that’s easier to keep clean and better suited for pure work.
