Samsung SyncMaster 20XL LED-backlight monitor

jmke · 7th December 2007, 20:32

The XL20 is Samsung's first LED-backlight LCD monitor released about a year ago and promoted for graphics artists and imaging professionals keen on high color accuracy. SPCR's interest in it was mainly to check the power consumption, as this is one of the often-repeated benefits of LED-backlight LCD monitors. My conflicted reaction to the 20" XL20: The more I used it, the more I wanted to keep it, despite the audible (admittedly low) noise of its fan.

Pantone huey

Remember an article on color blind? Well, I could tell you for fact, the number of people with hearing loss is higher than the people who can't see certain colors.

This is after 10 years in hearing aid industry.

That was news for me as well as the reason why LED monitors being fat is the heat.

Of course, this pretty much destroys the hopes that LED tech will be coming to normal LCDs anytime soon.
