HP’s latest monitors cut blue light levels to help you sleep
[ad_1] How do you make monitors that stand out when the features are often interchangeable? Build in technology that helps after you shut them off, apparently. HP has unveiled a string of E-Series monitors that are billed as the first ergonomic display with an always-on low blue light function, Eye Ease, that potentially helps you […]

The Galaxy Z Flip’s glass screen isn’t very durable
[ad_1] Nelson went so far as to suggest that Samsung wasn’t using real glass, speculating that it might be a glass-polymer hybrid. This struck him as misleading — if you describe a display as glass, shouldn’t it behave like glass? It may be more complicated than that, however. In a response to Engadget, Samsung reiterated […]
Samsung’s first Odyssey gaming monitors include a 240Hz ultra-wide
[ad_1] If that strikes you as overkill, there will be less extravagant options. The CTG7 series (below) offers 27- and 32-inch panels at a more conventional 2,560 x 1,440 resolution with the same 240Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, 1000R curvature, FreeSync and G-Sync. It’s not as bright with ‘just’ DisplayHDR 600 support, but we […]
ASUS’ 27-inch, 165Hz gaming monitor is $150 cheaper for Black Friday

The 27-inch screen tops out at a 1080p resolution, 144Hz and a not-so-vibrant TN panel, but that combination also gives you a 1ms gray-to-gray pixel response time. If that kind of responsiveness […]
Samsung’s 32-inch Space Gaming Monitor makes room for your PC
[ad_1] Like before, you can easily hide the power and HDMI cables and fasten it to your desk using the (thankfully included) clamp. Samsung hasn’t divulged pricing for the Space Gaming Monitor, but it should be available worldwide sometime in the fourth quarter of the year. We’d expect it to be moderately priced when the […]
Nintendo may have many, many more Switch consoles planned
[ad_1] Sharp VP Katsuaki Nomura may have also revealed more about more about the display technology in the upcoming Switch(es). He said it will supply its IGZO display panels to a videogame client assumed to be Nintendo, according to an earlier WSJ report. Those panels are used in Sharp’s high-end 8K TVs and Aquos smartphones […]
Samsung expects another big slump in profits
[ad_1] While Samsung hasn’t explained what dragged it down this quarter, its performance early in the year suffered primarily due to a drop in memory chip sales. While its increased profits over the first quarter suggest that the Galaxy S10 and A-series launches helped, they weren’t popular enough to reverse trends. The tech giant certainly […]
