ViewSonic ® Corporation, a leading global provider of visual display products, has introduced two new additions to its VA Series of LCD's – the widescreen 19-inch VA1928wm and the 19-inch VA1918wm. Targeted for the government office and the classroom, the displays deliver ViewSonic affordable, award-winning technology with bright, crisp images, rich colors, fast response times and pinpoint sharpness—all for less than xxx.

“The need for multimedia desktop displays in the classroom is increasing as curriculum’s evolve and students are required to perform intensive graphics work and need to work in multiple documents or applications simultaneously in their daily learning,” said Aaron Fright, Regional Director, ViewSonic Middle East & Africa. “By introducing inexpensive LCD’s with features typically associated with more expensive, high-end displays, ViewSonic is making it possible for regional users to enjoy the latest in display technology without breaking the bank.”

With a 10,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio, the VA1928wm delivers exceptional front-of-screen performance for office and education applications like spreadsheet manipulation, project presentations and Internet research. The 16:10 aspect ratio allows users dual-page viewing and simple, quick application navigation while the fast 5ms ClearMotiv video response provides blur-free fast action video.

The VA1928wm also comes with ECO mode which is based on the “Green LCD” concept. The backlight module can be adjusted to Standard (100%), Optimize (75%) and Conserve (60%) lighting power to extend the LCD monitor life and deliver TCO (Total Cost of Ownership), through reduced power consumption. In addition, ECO mode also provides visual ergonomic benefits for prolonged display usage, during use of general computer applications (Conserve~Optimize), on-line applications (Optimize) and movies/games (Standard).

Both displays are Windows Vista® Basic Certified, and include a thin-bezel design, built-in speakers, a VESA® mount for easy wall mounting setup, integrated power supply and a clean cable management system. In an effort to provide a minimal carbon footprint, the VA1928wm and VA1918wm meet the most stringent worldwide standards for energy savings and green initiatives, including EnergyStar®, RoHS, TCO’03 and EPEAT™ Silver certification.

Backed by a 3 Year limited warranty on parts, labour and backlight, ViewSonic’s VA range of LCD displays can be found across the UAE in the following Power Retailer Partners: Emax, Sharaf DG, CompuMe and Virgin Megastores.
