14 DAY TRIAL // Samsung Electronics America announced on Thursday the introduction of its new 70 Series monitors, including the new P2070, P2370 and P2370HD, designed to deliver an alternative to users who are looking to take advantage of the visual quality delivered by a slim LCD. According to Samsung, the new line comes with screen depths of 30mm, for the P2070 and P2370, while the last of the three comes with a screen depth of 65.6mm. All three boast the company's Touch of Color (ToC) design and are the latest release of Samsung's high-performance display lineup.
“The 70 Series is a great monitor for someone looking [for] a full range of color, sharpness and response. It also has an added benefit for those concerned about the environment. We were sensitive to the impact computers monitors have on the environment and have developed a manufacturing process for the 70 Series that would minimize this,” said Tony Yu, display product manager of Samsung Electronics America’s Information Technology Division.
Among some of the features that have been enabled on the new 70-series LCD monitors from Samsung we should mention the dynamic contrast ration of 50,000:1 and a GTG response time of 2ms (except for the P2370HD). The 70-series have also been featured with Samsung's crystal-like bezel frame with ToC design, and the integrated On Screen Display (OSD) buttons, enabling the end-user to easily interact with the controls of the monitor.
All but the P2070 model support full HD 1080p (1920x1080) resolution, while the P2070 can deliver a maximum of 1600x900. In addition, the thicker P2370HD model has been designed to integrate a 1080p digital HDTV tuner and is featured with a GTG response time of 5ms and HDMI input.
Despite no word on pricing, the consumer electronics company announced that the new 70-series Touch of Color LCDs would be available through Samsung's resellers and distribution channels.
