LG Electronics unveils monitor line

The four flagship models, which range in size from 19- to 22-inches incorporate Microsoft’s Industrial Design Toolkit (IDT) and highlight LG’s broad line-up of LCD monitors for early 2007.

LG’s “Certified for Windows Vista” FLATRON monitors are optimised to operate with Microsoft’s new operating system. The enhanced functionality is visible and the widescreen format makes multi-tasking easy with more screen real estate. These widescreen monitors are best for displaying HD content, which will gratify the avid video and multimedia gaming enthusiast.

The flagship 19-(L196WTQ-WF), 20-(L206WTQ-WF), and 22-inch (L226WTQ-WF and L226WA-WF) monitors incorporate LG’s Digital Fine Contrast Technology to boost the contrast ratio to 3,000:1, one of the highest available on the market today. With the 2ms response time, the units provide sharp, crisp images with reduced motion artifacts. LG’s “ez Zooming” technology helps users quickly change the size/resolution with just a click of a button, an ideal tool for smaller fonts or images that need to be magnified. The new 22-inch (L226WA-WF) monitor also includes AV inputs.

The four monitors incorporate DVI with HDCP for Windows Vista support as well as RGB. In addition to a wide viewing angle of 170-degrees, the units also include LG’s f-ENGINE, the world’s first picture-enhancing chip for desktop monitors. f-ENGINE has been designed to enhance brightness and color independently of each other. The design of the unit is equally impressive, with the ultra thin screen that can tilt and adjust its height accordingly. Featuring a graceful, unique black and white cabinet design, the monitors are sure to complement any home office or work area.

LG’s early 2007 U.S. LCD line also includes the “Certified for Windows Vista” 24-inch FLATRON L246WP. Ideal for gamers looking for a larger screen size, the 24-inch widescreen provides crisp and bright images. With the 1920 x 1200 resolution, 1,000:1 contrast ratio and 8ms response time, users will experience minimal image blurring even when playing the fastest games. The model also includes HDMI and component inputs.
