LCD Monitors Explained

Liquid-Crystal-Displays or LCD is a type of technology that most modern monitors and displays use to produce an image.

  • TN: The oldest type of LCD panel. TN or Twisted Nematic monitors offer low response times and high refresh rates alongside being budget-friendly.
  • IPS: IPS or In-Plane Switching panels were developed as an improvement to TN. These monitors provide outstanding colour fidelity in addition to better viewing angles.
  • VA: VA or Vertical Alignment displays offer exceptional contrast ratios and were developed to offer the best of both IPS and TN monitors.
