AOC
debuts a new 17" V17 LCD display that's just 12mm thick. The display has a 1440 x 900 pixel resolution, 5000:1 contrast ratio, 200cd/m² brightness and a built-in VGA webcam. It will be available by the end of the year for $200.
The V17 provides consumers with an incredibly thin and sleek LCD monitor that offers both the style and design they have been looking for, yet still at a price which rivals major competitors. Its thin design means less space taken up on any desk, as well as less materials necessary for its manufacturing. The V17 has as small a footprint in the office as it has on the environment with its low power consumption and 100% recycled pulp mold packaging.
"We are continuously working towards meeting and exceeding consumer demands in today's market, they want smaller displays with bigger screens, better performance, but less impact on the environment and incredible styling," said Jerry Chou, Product Manager, AOC. "The V17 touches on each of these points as the first product in a line of incredibly thin monitors, and is leading the way for our WLED ultra-thin technology," added Chou.
