Iiyama introduces XB2472HD-B and X2775HDS-B VA-based desktop displays
Japanese monitor maker Iiyama just blessed the market with a new pair of panels sporting a 1920 x 1080 resolution, 8ms response and a special ECO mode that reduces power consumption by up to 60-percent. The 24-inch XB2472HD-B and 27-inch X2775HDS-B both rely on an LED-backlit VA display (better than your bargain LCD, but not quite as nice as an IPS display) and have your standard trio of HDMI, DVI and VGA inputs. The primary difference between the two screens is the 24-incher's slightly higher brightness (300cd/m2 versus 250cd/m2) and the 27-inch model's 4-port USB hub and integrated speakers. The XB2472HD-B should start shipping by the end of the month for ¥24,800 ($323) with the X2775HDS-B to follow in September for around ¥34,800 ($453).
Iiyama kicks out new ProLite touchscreen monitors
Despite their lack of mainstream appeal, touchscreen monitors are slowly making inroads onto Joe Public's desktop, and display specialist Iiyama is hoping to come along for the ride with its new line of ProLine models. Coming in 15- (T1530SR), 17- (T1730SR), and 19-inch (T1930SR) flavors, the latest ProLines feature 800:1 contrast ratios, either 280 or 240cd/m² brightness, 5ms or 16ms response times, and either 1,280 x 1,024 (T1930 and T1730) or 1,024 x 768 (T1530) resolutions. Available immediately, the monitors range from £329 ($677) to £399 ($821) depending on size.
Iiyama's budget 32-inch HDTV LCD
Japan's Iiyama is pumping out another sweetie this morning with this, their latest 32-inch offering which may or may not be destined to leave the shores of Nippon. The C3202WTV-B1 set features an integrated terrestrial digital/analog tuner, 1366x768 resolution, 550cd/m2 brightness, 8-ms response, and 1000:1 contrast ratio. It also packs the usual 176-degree visibility and humble set of in/outs including HDMI, S-Video, composite, and even DSub-15 RGB for the old PC -- no component though for you, Jack. Besides throwing back a nice, clean design, the only thing that stands out here is the price, just ¥109,800 or about $938 should Iiyama ever decide to grace their modest, rest-of-world portfolio with this model. Yeah, it's not as cheap as an $845 Polaroid, but it's not as cheap as an $845 Polaroid either, ifyanowhutamean?[Via Impress]
Iiyama's ProLite 19-inch widescreen LCD monitor: affordable specs
There's always room in our jaded hearts for another low-cost, 19-inch widescreen LCD especially when it can deliver on specs. The Iiyama ProLite E1901WS/B features a panel resolution of 1440x900 (WXGA+) and throws down a 5-ms response, 850:1 contrast, 300cd/m2 brightness, and a D-Sub15 input for getting old school RGB or 2x HDCP-enabled DVI inputs to keep HD videos dancin' in Vista. Available in white or black with a super-thin bezel for going multi-paneled. At just ¥35,800 (about $304) maybe you don't have to wait for Dell.[Via Impress]
iiyama's 22-inch ProLite E2200S LCD
We don't cover a lot of iiyama LCDs 'round here but they do make some decent panels at an attractive price. Their new 22-incher, the ProLite E2200WS, is certainly no exception with a 1680x1050 (WSXGA+) resolution, 5-millisecond response time, 1000:1 contrast ratio, 300cd/m2 brightness, D-Sub and DVI inputs, and 170°/160° horizontal/vertical visibility. In fact, this is shaping up to be a near identical panel as the BenQ FP222W announced earlier. Just be careful HD fans 'cause there's no mention of HDCP support on that DVI jack. On sale now in Japan for ¥54,800 and then a few days later in Europe for £268/€398/$499. Come on iiyama, how 'bout some Stateside love too? [Via Impress]
