Samsung makes extra-wide LCDs for notebooks

4 June 2008 18:15 by Andre "DVDBack23" Yoskowitz | 2 comments

Samsung makes extra-wide LCDs for notebooks Samsung has said it will become the latest company to begin offering new extra-wide 16:9 aspect ratio LCDs for notebooks.

Currently the electronics giant produces 15.4-inch, 16:10 screens found in most notebooks but it will begin 15.6-inch screens that are usually known to be better for movie viewing and side-by-side documents.

According to reports from display industry insiders, the production will start in November with commercial notebook releases being seen in early 2009.

Other display makers such as AU Optronics and LG Display are also reportedly producing 17.3-inch LCDs at the same 16:9 ratio that is usually targeted at HD viewing.
