Chapter 1 Introducing the Display
• FAST RESPONSE TIME
The faster response time is good to video or animation to reduce
residual image effect. While playing 3D games or watch video, it can
enhance fluent video streaming.
• SUPERIOR BRIGHTNESS & CONTRAST
High brightness can make images vivid and higher contrast results in
sharper difference between black and white colors. This feature is
able to make the images displayed true to nature and colors
saturated with the gradation.
• ANTI-REFLECTION COATING
The coating on the panel efficiently reduces distracting glare. If you
often gaze at the screen for word processing or long-time working,
this feature will cause less fatigue.
• PLUG-AND-PLAY CAPABILITY
Easy trouble-free configuration and set-up.
• INTEGRATED POWER DESIGN
The power part is integrated into the whole design and there’s no
more external power adapter to occupy your desktop space.
