Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., the number one worldwide brand for
display products, is continuing to evolve LED monitor technology by
offering environmentally-friendly monitors with better viewing angles
and eye-catching designs with the release of its 50 and 30 series LED
monitors.
Before developing its latest LED monitors, Samsung consumers identified
three key areas that would benefit consumer needs - eco-friendliness,
design and viewing experience. Samsung addressed these mandates in the
following
ways:.
Eco-friendly LED backlight: The 50 and 30 series LED monitors highlight Samsung’s commitment to putting the PlanetFirst™. Unlike conventional monitors, LED-backlit displays contain few or no environmentally hazardous substances, such as mercury or lead, and use about 40 percent less energy.
Samsung’s Touch of Colour (ToC) technology doesn’t use paints, sprays or
glues, ensuring they contain no Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs),
making recycling simpler and safer.
Samsung’s Magic Eco feature allows users to adjust a monitor’s
brightness based on different energy consumption levels with four preset
energy-saving options to choose from: 100 percent, 75 percent, 50
percent, and Power-Saving Off. Additionally, the 50 and 30 series
monitors meet international energy standards including Energy Star 5.0
and China’s Energy Level 1 grade (50 series), proving themselves
eco-friendly products.
Sleek and slim design: Both the 50 and 30 series introduce new, sleek
designs that set them apart from previous design trends. Both have
adopted Samsung’s trademark ToC technology, reducing monitor thickness
dramatically.
The 50 series employs a Charcoal grey ToC design, a stand with a chrome
finish and a delicate wave back-pattern. The 30 series differentiates
itself with its Mystic Brown ToC design, a colour not commonly found in
conventional monitors, which is reminiscent of rich, handcrafted
chocolate.
These products truly deliver on Samsung’s design philosophy that
consumer electronics should resemble pieces of art that help tie a room
together.
The most comfortable viewing experience: Samsung’s new 50 and 30 series
LED monitors support Samsung’s proprietary Magic Angle feature to reduce
eye strain and ensure that images are centred when viewed from any
angle. This eliminates distortion and provides the best viewing angle
whether standing, sitting, or even lying down. Consumers can also enjoy
vivid, dynamic images thanks to the Mega Dynamic Contrast Ratio,
ultra-fast response time of 2ms, FHD resolution, and a 16:9 aspect
ratio.
Also unique to the 50 series is a new feature called Magic Return. When
users are working with two monitors, Magic Return automatically moves
content from a screen that is abruptly turned off to the screen that is
still on, enabling content to be accessed even if one of the monitors
gets disconnected, or shuts off.
“Samsung’s 50 and 30 LED monitors illustrate our commitment to releasing
top-of-the-line products that are environmentally-friendly and address
the needs of consumers,” said Graham Long, Vice President of Samsung’s
IT Business Division. “Through our continuous monitor innovations, we
expect the 50 and 30 series of LED monitors will strengthen our
leadership in the global LED monitor market.”

Convention testimonials It was a great pleasure and an honour being at the convention. I would like to thank you and Phil for believing in me and inviting me to speak at the convention for the 2nd time. I really enjoyed sharing my knowledge with the numerous delegates that have attended my sessions. I had such a great feedback that it sounds too good to be true. Furthermore, I would like to thank you for the 4 awards that I got at the convention. This experience will help me to work even harder for the coming competitions. Christopher Azzopardi

Photo Quote: At forty-two I decided to become a photographer because it offered a means of creative thought and action. I didn't rationalize this, I just felt it intuitively and followed my intuition, which I have never regretted. - Wynn Bullock
