Samsung To Launch 24-inch LCD with LED Backlight
By: Gaurav Seth   |   Apr 11, 2007
Samsung Electronics today announced that, in the second quarter, it will begin producing a 24-inch LCD panel with an LED backlight that enables computer monitors to deliver color quality resembling high-quality TV sets available today.

With the new 24-inch LCD monitor display, technology-demanding consumers, professional graphics designers and digital photographers will enjoy the same true-to-life colors that premium LCD TVs can provide, thanks to Samsung's proprietary LED backlight. The LED-backlit monitor panel has an industry-high color saturation level of 111% (of NTSC standard) compared to a saturation level of only 72% of NTSC for conventional monitors.

The panel's 24-inch screen size is optimal for systems equipped with the Windows Vista operating system. While conventional thinking has been that Windows Vista works best with a 22-inch screen (the size of two A4 pieces of paper), 22 inches is not wide enough to support full-HD. In addition, industry experts now say that 24 inches provides a better Windows Vista fit to also include the Vista right side bar and margins.

The advent of Windows Vista and the spread of HD technology have accelerated the demand for wide-screen monitors delivering true-color imagery. Meanwhile, a steadily increasing number of consumers are using their monitors to watch high quality video images. Samsung's new 24-inch LCD display with its vivid colors represents one of the most advanced monitor screens available today to meet market needs.

The new monitor display also features Samsung's highly successful S-PVA (Super Patterned-ITO Vertical Alignment) technology that provides the widest viewing angle possible—180 degrees—at the highest contrast ratio for LCD monitors today (>1,000:1). It also supports WUXGA resolution (1,920x1,200 pixels), which is the computer equivalent to Full HD resolution.

The new display's backlight does not use mercury and is therefore is environmentally-friendly.

How on earth can any display boast a viewing angle of 180 degrees? Look at anything edge-on, and can you see the face of it? No. This is patently ridiculous and throws into question the validity of the rest of their claims. Contrast levels, for example, as any display engineer will tell you, are based upon almost uniformly unique conditions: the type of display technology being tested, the test patterns being implemented, and the test equipment being used. Skewing the results to favor your design is easy, making most contrast ratios listed by manufacturers meaningless. I have no doubt that this display looks great, but why bother listing specs when they aren't falsifiable? That's not good science. Sony, fo example, is claiming 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio on a prototype OLED panel. Yeeah!

Why does every new product use vista to sell itself. Vista is balls, a big monitor is always good because its a big monitor, not cause "industry experts now say that 24 inches provides a better Windows Vista fit". Yeah, 24 inches provides a better fit for every OS not just "Vista the best OS ever made omg".
