LG release IPS monitors with LED: IPS2062T, IPS226V, IPS236V and IPS231P

FOR GOD SAKE WHY NOT 24 AND 27 ???????I just don't get the point of making 20'' ?
 
Wow, looks just like the samsung LEDs!

Professional model has speakers, and the consumer models do not. Yet the consumer models have HDMI, and the professional does not. Silly.

Guessing so long as LG makes panels for Apple, we won't see either a 26/27" size, or one with glossy panel. I guess here's hoping the AG coating is improved.
 
Relevant disclosure from their IFA page (nothing new, really):

LG LED IPS Monitors

An alchemic convergence of IPS and LED, the new IPS1 and IPS6 monitor series deliver supremely advanced monitor picture quality without any colour shift along with wide viewing angle. Using premium IPS panels, LG’s IPS1 and IPS6 monitors provide stable colour and a high uniformity of brightness at any viewing angle, making them ideal for editing video and graphics, as well as watching movies or playing games. LG’s LED IPS monitors have all the advantages from LG’s original LED monitor technology ? pictures greatly enhanced by a mega contrast ratio, a complete lack of harmful substances, and a significantly slimmer depth than on regular LCD monitors.

Model : IPS236V

* 23” Wide (16:9)
* 1920x1080 of high resolution
* Contrast ratio 5,000,000:1
* 178/178 viewing angle
* Fast 6ms response time

Now if they could stop making toys for entertainment and produce some 16:10 variants to get some real work done....
 
Very sexy. But I'm going to wait for 27" and 30" sizes. They don't offer a significant upgrade over my current 23s. BTW do these use true LED lighting or are these just the edge lit ones that don't affect image quality at all but just save power?
 
Big glossy Bezel = Bite me LG.

It is bad enough my TV has a big glossy bezel I certainly don't want one on my monitor.
 
No 24" and 16:10 :mad: fffuuu

I'd be quite interested in a slim looking IPS. Not a fan of glossy bezels though.
 
16:9 is DOA for me always but past that: Is it just me or is LED really being overhyped and overrated?
 
I have no problem with 16:9 or 23" so the 23" sounds good to me with 6ms response time and LED (although what the LED brings to it we will see). I wish they would have announced some release dates, however.
 
Yeah we all have demands but do the coporations f****** listen ? NO

I'm Dreaming of a: 24"-26",1920 x 1200/1080, H-ips, LED backlit, 120hz, zero-inputlag, NO scaler, Glossy coating covered with glass

And I don' give a F*** how much it costs

Haha, why would they give you the whole dream now and let you settle on a single-monitor purchase that will last you years when they can slowly iterate toward the holy grail and introduce only one of those new features per year, forcing you to upgrade and buy a new model each time?
 
Looks promising. Probably going to run my current monitor until it dies, but one these might just be a possible replacement.

Well I'm sticking with my samung 1200NF crt until I find a LCD that's almost as good.
And my dream would actually be a 24"- 26" 7680 x 4320, 600HZ Oled :cool:

Probably Edgelit. I just bought an Edgelit HDTV and it sucks ass. Terrible backlight bleed, poor color uniformity and bad viewing angles.

LED = Full Array / Great
LED = Edgelit / Fail

eIPS panels sucks also. I been seeing a few of these pop up. They also have color uniformity issues. Stick with S/H-IPS panels.

You'll never have <1 frame input lag. The data needs to be sent from the PC and buffered before being displayed. Go back to CRT if you want no input lag. Lots of displays out there right now seem to have 1 frame input lag. For me this is at the bottom of my display shopping list so I haven't got anything memorized.

Why no scaler? First, if it can scale in one frame delay that's the best you'll ever get. Second, why not "scaler passthrough when at native res"? That way the display will be useful for a lot more things.

LG to unveil 31" OLED-TV on IFA 2010
Click to expand...

That's what I'm doing, as long as it has a decent warranty. I budgeted up to 5999 retail for it and will allow myself one desktop display upgrade if something reasonably decent comes along until then. The lower resolution (1080p) doesn't bother me since I'd want lower for gaming fps and also my eyes are just bad and I'd mount it on the wall behind my desk so I can still read text easy. We'll see. March 2011 is so far away and it could be vapor.

Don't know about March. LG also said something like April-June 2010 lauch for the 15" OLED but on most markets it's nowhere to be seen. But let's hope :)

The PR says it uses LED BLU, which has been backlit for LG in the past. Its also kind of thick for edglit. Not sure if its eIPS as well, as they tout it as using LG's "premium" IPS panels. I guess time will tell.
 
LG disclosed a MSRP target of 6999 pounds in the UK. Some people assumed that would be 9k in USD just by currency exchange rates, but it ignores that UK/Euro countries pay about double what US customers pay in real value for many consumer electronics, including monitors. I believe LG said later it would be priced around 4999 or 5999 USD for the NA market.

Believe? How about a link saying that? The $2500 15" model still hasn't shown up in the USA.

Sorry, can't find it - it might have been from a youtube video at IFA. I did find the £6000 number on blogs, but it would all just be IFA hearsay anyhow. Or maybe from a diff forum - really its all speculation and I certainly didn't say otherwise.

As to the 15", honestly I would be surprised if they ported the 15" model over to the US since it is 100hz. Did they say it would be?

Ya... prolly not the thread for all the oled stuff. Here's the IPS release from IFA:

LG&#8217;S FIRST LED IPS MONITOR OFFERS PERFECT BLEND OF ADVANCED LED AND IPS

With the Dual Advantages of LED Backlighting and an IPS Panel, LG&#8217;s New Generation IPS1 and IPS6 Monitors Deliver Dazzling Picture Quality and Super-High Energy Efficiency

BERLIN, Sep. 1, 2010 &#8211; LG Electronics Business Solutions (LG) today introduced its new LED IPS monitors, the IPS1 and IPS6 series, that combine IPS and LED, two technologies in which LG is already an established leader. The IPS1 and IPS6 series boast exceptionally real colour, high uniformity of brightness and truly dazzling picture quality.

&#8220;LG has been a pioneer and leader of IPS panel development and we&#8217;re excited to have applied this new technology so successfully to our new monitors,&#8221; said Brian Kwon, Vice President of LG Business Solutions Company. &#8220;With advantages from both of these advanced technologies, LG&#8217;s IPS monitors will take the monitor industry in exciting new directions.&#8221;

Realistic Colour, Stable Brightness, Brilliantly Vivid

An alchemic convergence of IPS and LED, the new IPS1 and IPS6 monitor series deliver supremely advanced monitor picture quality without any colour shift along with a wide viewing angle. Answering the need for the premium panel of the market, LG&#8217;s new LED IPS monitor uses IPS panel instead of TN (Twisted Nematic) Panel to overcome the limit of viewing angle and provide a real colour.

As a leader in the emerging IPS technology &#8211; which has been drawing increasing attention for its ability to reduce eye fatigue &#8211; LG has been able to harness all the advantages of IPS and use them in its IPS monitor series. Using IPS panels, LG&#8217;s IPS1 and IPS6 monitors provide stable colour and a high uniformity of brightness at any viewing angle, making them ideal for editing video and graphics, as well as watching movies or playing games. The IPS6 series also boasts a low GtoG response time difference, meaning viewers will feel less eye fatigue even when watching for long periods.
What&#8217;s more, LG&#8217;s LED IPS monitors have all the advantages from LG&#8217;s original LED monitor technology &#8211; pictures greatly enhanced by a mega contrast ratio, a complete lack of harmful substances, and a significantly slimmer depth than on regular LCD monitors.

At the same time, the IPS1 series boasts enhanced colour accuracy making it the perfect choice for graphic designers.

Energy Efficiency with Premium Design

The new monitors&#8217; advantages continue to stack up with their high energy efficiency, resulting in cuts in energy use of up to 27 percent compared with other models. In recognition of their efficiency, the IPS6 monitors have EnergyStar Certification.
Developed with consumers in mind, the IPS6 series boasts a slim and sleek design, with a depth of just 19.5mm on 20-23 inch screens, that makes it a delight to look at. A gorgeous transparent neck with distinctive colouring and a wine glass shape accentuate the stylish, upscale appearance. And as a final touch, the monitors boast a 3D power knob with an arresting silver-chrome finish.

Specifically designed for the office, the IPS1 series boasts an ergonomic design that makes it ideal for using at work. Its 110mm height-adjustable stand, which can pivot, tilt and swivel, enables users to adjust the direction of the monitor screen to their convenience. Also, with its built-in hidden speakers, the IPS1 takes up the minimum of space on office desks.

I'll be the first to bite: $1,000 bucks says it'll be (ch)e(ap)-IPS w/ banding issues, uneven backlight uniformity, and major glowing issues...oh my!!

Oh yeah, and they look cheap too. Just like every other TN panel on the market. "Bleh" is right!
