What is a refurbished device?
A refurbished device is a pre-owned item that has been restored to meet high-quality standards. At Reboot IT, we adhere to strict quality guidelines, ensuring that our refurbished products are not the same as used or secondhand items. We meticulously clean, test, and assess each device, replacing worn parts with high-quality components.
Unlike used items, which lack guarantees and rely solely on the seller's word regarding condition, refurbished devices come with assurance of quality and reliability.

Philips Brilliance 231P4U 23" IPS FHD 1080p USB 3.0 Docking Mo...

We ensure secure processing of your payment information and do not retain or have access to your credit card details.
The Philips Brilliance 231P4U is a 23-inch Full HD IPS monitor with a built-in USB 3.0 docking station, including Gigabit Ethernet, so a laptop connects to display, network, and peripherals over a single USB cable. Fully ergonomic stand with height, tilt, swivel, and pivot adjustment. Backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty.
The value of this monitor is the docking function rather than the panel specification. A 23-inch Full HD IPS display is perfectly good for office work, but plenty of monitors offer that. What makes the 231P4U worth seeking out is that a laptop user arrives at the desk, plugs in one USB cable, and immediately has an external screen, wired Gigabit network, and every connected peripheral.
For hot-desking and flexible-working arrangements, that single-cable behaviour changes how a desk is used. There is no docking station to buy or configure, no vendor-specific dock tied to one laptop model, and no cluster of cables to reconnect. The USB approach also means it works across laptop brands, which a proprietary dock does not.
The Gigabit Ethernet port deserves attention on its own. Many modern laptops have no Ethernet port at all, and Wi-Fi is not always adequate for large transfers, VPN sessions, or environments with congested wireless. Getting a wired connection through the monitor solves that without a separate USB network adapter to lose.

Do I need to install software for the USB docking to work?
USB docking monitors of this type use DisplayLink technology, which generally requires a DisplayLink driver on the connected computer. Drivers are available free from DisplayLink for Windows and macOS.
Does the Ethernet port work through the USB connection?
Yes. The Gigabit Ethernet port is part of the USB docking function, so a laptop connected by USB gains a wired network connection through the monitor.
Is a USB cable included?
Cable inclusion varies between refurbished units. Contact us before ordering if you need the USB docking cable confirmed for your order.
Can the screen rotate to portrait?
Yes. The stand supports pivot rotation to portrait orientation, along with height, tilt, and swivel adjustment.
Will it work with a Mac?
Yes, with the appropriate DisplayLink driver installed. Check current DisplayLink macOS compatibility for your specific macOS version before ordering.
Can I use it as a normal monitor without docking?
The 231P4U is designed around USB docking. Check the specific input configuration of your unit with us before ordering if you intend to connect by a standard video cable.
What are the shipping options?
Shipping costs apply based on size and destination — rates are calculated at checkout.

Single-cable USB docking
One USB 3.0 cable carries video, network and peripherals, so a laptop user connects and disconnects with a single plug rather than four.
23-inch Full HD IPS panel
IPS delivers accurate colour and wide viewing angles, noticeably better than TN panels for shared screens and off-axis viewing.
Built-in Gigabit Ethernet
Wired network through the monitor gives laptops without an Ethernet port a stable connection for large transfers and VPN reliability.
Fully ergonomic stand
Height, tilt, swivel and pivot adjustment allow correct positioning, including portrait rotation for documents and code.

Fantastic service
I was looking for an in-expensive all-in-one solution for my home office to replace my existing desktop and monitor. I found this EliteOne 800 on reboot IT for under $200. I wasn't sure what to expect. It arrived within two days!!!! I upgraded the RAM, replaced the HDD and installed Windows 11. This is unbeatable value and was the cheapest price online. Coupled with a 3-month warranty, Reboot IT are by far the best online refurbished retailer I have used. Awesome!
Great service. Product in great condition and exactly what i want. I wanted this for a specific purpose but i dont need to spend $900 on a new one.
Excellent work
exactly as described and works well , just like the staff down there. 10/10
Very happy, thank you
Just having trouble greeting it linked to the internet otherwise it’s okay.
Fair tech for price, good specs for era, serves the purpose. The black keyboard is an interesting rubber like texture clearly by design to pad the screen and avoid the keyboard touching. Screen is great. Still looking for magic formula to enable computer use in the bright bright sunshine. Keyboard taps are loud for someone who likes silent touch. The perfect PC has to exist, like build a bear.
