Samsung LCD Boasts 100,000:1

Posted on February 8, 2007 8:28 AM by Rob Williams

The flagship model was a 40-inch LCD panel destined for the HDTV market. The screen boasts 500 cd/m2 of brightness, 180-degree viewing angle, and 1366 x 768 pixel (720p) HD resolution. The widescreen panel also claims to offer an impressive 100,000:1 contrast ratio, achieved using local dimming LED backlighting.

Samsung makes some of the most beautiful LCDs around and the 100,000:1 is sure a nice figure. Is there even a point where you would notice the difference between 100,000:1 or 50,000:1 though? Either way, I am drooling based on the numbers alone.
