Samsung Outs 18.5in USB Powered Monitor Display
We’ve seen plenty of DisplayLink monitors in the past three years and in September we’ve even got a glimpse of the first shows small USB powered, but now it seems we’re ready for the next step.
Samsung showed a prototype of LEB 18.5in backlit display at SID 2010, which can be powered by a single USB 2.0 cable. How? Power was reduced to only 6.3W by “improving the transmission efficiency of the panel and the luminance of the lighting,” according to Johnny-on-the-field tech-on!
Regarding the specifications, the monitor has a respectable 1366 x 768 resolution, 1000:1 contrast ratio and 250cd/m2 brightness. The disadvantage at this stage is that Samsung claims the model has a lifetime of only 30,000 hours against 50,000 hours from a typical monitor LEDs.
When can we see them in production? “We plan to start volume production of LCD desktop in 2011,” a Samsung representative is quoted as saying.
With the largest electric power largest USB 3.0 maybe we could see 22in 24in monitors USB powered and not too far down the road? [via trustedreviews]
