NEC Display Solutions Adds New 23-inch LED-Backlit Monitor to its MultiSync E Series
NEC Display Solutions of America, a leading provider of commercial LCD display and projector solutions, announced today the introduction of the LED-backlit MultiSync E231W, an addition to the popular 23-inch desktop category. This desktop display is designed to benefit a variety of business customers with financial savings and power efficiency.
The EPEAT Gold rated MultiSync E231W provides users with advanced features that were created to enhance the desktop computing experience and increase productivity. Its widescreen display allows users to have several applications open simultaneously, while its fully-ergonomic design includes 110mm height adjustment, tilt, swivel and pivot for improved comfort during use.
This E Series model follows in the green footsteps of its sibling, the 22" MultiSync E222W, with ECO Mode to reduce power consumption and heat generation, and an ambient light sensor to detect external light sources and adjust the display's brightness accordingly. Users also have the ability to track their carbon footprint savings with the MultiSync E231W's carbon footprint meter, a unique tool that calculates the reduction of green gas emissions. Additionally, the Intelligent Power Manager (IPM) helps conserve energy and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by switching to a low power state or automatically powering down when the monitor is on but not in use.
"NEC is committed to continuing its strong leadership role within the industry by contributing to a greener environment with an eco-friendly display in the quickly-growing 23-inch category," said Lynn Gu, Product Manager for NEC Display Solutions. "The MultiSync E231W uses an LED-backlit panel to increase energy savings by up to 40% in comparison to conventional CCFL-backlit LCD monitors. This is especially beneficial for our business customers in this economic downturn."

At least nice to see panel makers realising that nobody wants awful tiny speakers built into their screens :laugh:
They should make more affordable IPS panels instead of TN+LED stuff :rolleyes:
and when is well made there is no bleeding or at least less, like we see in ccfl.
2. White LEDs produce worse "white light" than most decent CCFLs due to inferior phosphor(hint: they aren't actually white). White LEDs also cannot match W-CCFL, though wide-gamut monitors are not relevant until 10-bit or higher input/output goes mainstream. Only the very expensive RGB LED matrix is truly better than CCFL/W-CCFL.
3. Back-light bleeding has nothing to do with the type of back-lighting.
For me its more about the amount of heat being put out!! I have 3 monitors (2 22inch Dell LED monitors and a 24inch IPS with CFL backlight). The heat output by the 24 inch monitor is insane!! It's like sitting in front of a fire place. The 2 22inch monitors are cool to the touch and I actually do like their white colour more than the 24inchs.
If I ever found a monitor with these specs I'd buy it instantly and have it shipped from where ever!!! But it would have to be in the $1100 range
24inch 1920x1200 LED backlit 24-bit IPS panel.
I am getting sick and tired of all these el-cheapo 1920x1080 TN monitors.
Lol. Waiting for haters to show up.
I'd totally buy a Cinema Display if it wasn't for
1. has only 1 display port connection
2. very glossy finish
3. no way to calibrate the colours on it without a mac.
Actually that raises a whole question about the LED colour accuracy. If its good enough for mac people to use in print media, video production, new media and web-site creation (ie. Graphic professionals) then why is LED colour accuracy not accepted when it comes to doing the same things on a PC? Almost every mac person I know owns a cinema display and they're all graphic designers of one form or another and they love their LED cinema displays.
