LG on Friday introduced its new IPS4 lineup of monitors. Their displays are focused on budget viewers but still get In-Plane Switching (IPS) technology rather than cheaper Twisted Nematic (TN) panels. This results in better color reproduction, consistency, and quality.
The viewing angle from all sides is now 178 degrees, with no color shift at up to this angle. The technology also allowed LG to get rid of the blur during fast action sequences, which LG calls Smooth Color Change. A Dual Smart Solution feature lets users convert to using dual monitors quickly. The window size is automatically divided to show multiple web pages.
LG also said the technology has become more affordable nowadays, though it stopped short of revealing prices. The IPS4 screens ship in Asia this May, with European and North American launches due in following weeks.
