Finally, a good high-res 17" screen?

Was pointed to this thing on another forum: http://www.panelook.com/B173ZAN01.0_AUO_17.3_LCM_parameter_25358.html


17" 4K, AHVA, 8bit, 100% Adobe RGB, matte, eDP

The only not-so-good spec is 23ms G2G.

 

But this screen goes into?

 

Nothing yet. But at least we know it exists. All mid-high range 17" non-touch laptop products in the following years would be good candidates.

At 100% ARGB and 8bit it would be a good screen for Optimus mobile workstations where gamut is more important than blur reduction and 10bit is not available.

 

I highly doubt that will be true unless the laptop manufacture states otherwise. That would be a candidate for Desktop panel replacement more then laptop.

 

Who uses a 17.3" 4K desktop monitor?

 

Thanks for posting this.

Specs-wise, that looks like a very, very interesting screen.

Not that I own a 17.3" system at the moment, but...I might get one just to play with this LCD.

 

The announcement last month specifically says it is for "high-end notebook PC applications", "meeting the demand for professional graphic designing and audio-video gaming".

The spec says the backlight is only WLED, so it might not be as wide gamut as DreamColor, unless WLEDs have improved, or there is a sibling model with a different backlight.

 

Haha good to see this.. although 4K is too much for me, a 3K pannel at 17.3" will be fine for me!

 

It's not like we have much choice (I think 2560x1600 would be idea for 17", but it's just me), but here to say, took them long enough! After even cigarette lighters have higher res displays than 17" laptops, it was about time. BTW What does "circular display" mean?

 

Circular polarizer, fairly common in many LCD panels of the MVA/PVA/IPS families.
