LG produces 23-inch 240Hz IPS display


LG Display today unveiled a new 23-inch IPS LCD that can refresh at 240Hz. A combination of a fast-updating 120Hz panel with a rapidly flashing scanning backlight lets it produce an update speed normally reserved for much larger TV sets. A copper bus line helps keep the display updating quickly, at 8ms, while still giving the deep color and wide viewing angles inherent to IPS.

The extra speed could both improve detail and reduce blur in fast-moving scenes, such as in action movies and games. It may also improve the performance for stereoscopic 3D by allowing the extra depth while still providing smoother frame rates.

Mass production is starting for the display, though it's unknown when it will ship or which products will use it. LG anticipated the 240Hz screen being used both for desktop displays and for small TVs that have previously been limited to budget screens. [via OLED-Display]

    I cant stand TV's that do 120mhz refresh, I doubt I will like it on a monitor. Movies just look fake on those TVs.
