Samsung announces that it has developed three new LCD displays for notebook PCs - two offering a true 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio for viewing movies, TV shows and gaming, while the third features active White-LED (light-emitting diode) backlighting that boosts picture clarity and reduces power consumption.
The Samsung 15.4-inch LCD with an active, White-LED backlight uses 40% less power than a typical LED backlight and still has a high 10,000:1 contrast ratio.
Samsung will unveil its latest LCD models, which it expects will garner considerable interest in the high-end notebook PC market, at FPD International being held in Yokohama, Japan, October 24-26. Mass production is scheduled to commence in the first half of next year for the 16:9 displays and in the second half of 2008 for the White-LED backlit panel.
