Standard azimuth angle for displays?
Is there a standard viewing angle for flat panel displays to get the best
definition and color? I mean the up-down azimuth angle. My wife insists on having the screen vertical but I like to have it facing me squarely. |

My wife insists on having the screen vertical but I like to have it facing me squarely. Standard? Not that I've heard of. With older LCDs the viewing angle was rather narrow and straight-on was clearly the best way to go. Most modern LCDs can manage a decent display over at least 20 (or so) degrees. One argument for straight-on has nothing to do with the definition and color -- at an angle the display appears smaller (subtends a smaller angle) so you can't get all that you are paying for. OK, so that isn't a strong argument but it is true. Bigger question though, why can't each of you simply tilt the screen to his/her own preferences unless you are both trying to look at it simultaneously? (when that happens next you can reopen the dispute) |

See replies to your nearly identical post submitted all of 4 minutes later (except there you ask about inclination angle and here you ask about azimuth). Will there be another post that asks about angle of incidence? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_of_incidence |
