Samsung Outs 18.5in USB Powered Monitor Display

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 Outs 18


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]
