Example: EIZO LCD display FlexScan EV2455 connected to 13.3" 2in1 notebook PC (VAIO Z). Projecting the 13.3" notebook PC display to a 24.1" WUXGA (1920 x 1200 pixels) external display greatly enhances one’s work efficiency.

As shown above, Windows 10 has a new settings application installed which we recommend you use. But you can also use the “control panel” found in Windows 8 and earlier. To any familiar PC user, the conventional method of using the control panel to display various settings is still possible.

If you connect an external display to a notebook PC, being able to create a large-screen, high resolution dual-display environment can significantly improve one’s work efficiency. These days products with high density pixel displays larger than full HD are becoming more common, but if a notebook PC with a screen size of 13 or 14 inches is displayed on one of these high resolution displays, the screen will end up shrinking so that it’s difficult to read, and so it has to be enlarged by 150% or 200%. Therefore it’s not that resolution = workspace, but rather that your workspace is limited to the size of your screen.

A word of advice when choosing a monitor to connect to your notebook PC, in a dual display environment — having the two taskbars at the bottom of the screen be uniform makes it easier to use, but a notebook PC’s height cannot be adjusted, so choosing a product that can be easily adjusted is desirable. Furthermore, because a notebook’s display is situated at a fairly low height, an external monitor that can be lowered to the table surface is better.

If an LCD display’s height adjustment range is wide, you can create a vertical multi-display environment like this, reducing the required width of your working space. The image gives the example of a VAIO Z and FlexScan EV2455, but if you tilt the screen of the VAIO Z, the FlexScan EV2455 can be made to not overlap as shown; naturally creating two screens.

The 24.1-inch WUXGA display FlexScan EV2455 that we used, uses an IPS LCD panel with wide viewing angles and a glare reducing screen. Furthermore it has a narrow-frame design of only 6.2 mm (1 mm bezel and 5.2 mm black border). Therefore two monitors side by side will only have a gap of 12.4 mm, so you can make an almost noiseless multi-display environment. Another feature is the automatic dimming function (Auto EcoView) which leads to less eye fatigue, and less power consumption.

There"s no doubt that dual layer LCD is a bit of a hot topic at the moment and one of the comments we got last week after Ken"s article (OLED and Dual Cell TV: The Battle Commences) asked why the technology is needed. It seems to me there are two big factors.

The first is the issue of the supply chain and the development of the LCD industry. The push by the Chinese to dominate LCD manufacture over recent years is continuing and more fabs are going to appear. New fabs make a lot of panels and they will be big panels. However, the Chinese TV brands will also want to move up-market to try to challenge Samsung, LG and Sony in the premium segments and that means competing with OLED, or supplying OLED.

There are also huge technical challenges in making large OLEDs - which is why LG has to use a very inefficient and inelegant method (based on patents that it acquired from Kodak) to make the panels and why Samsung abandoned its first attempt to make large OLEDs and seems to be hesitating about a second attempt. The technical challenges means that Chinese OLED developers are several years behind the Koreans, although they are trying hard to catch up.

So, the Chinese want to compete with OLED in the premium segment, but don"t have the means to do it with their own OLEDs, so they have to exploit what they do have, which is LCD. I do think they will struggle to make products that can meet the energy requirements for TVs in Europe and the US (I don"t know if there are stringent requirements in China - if you do, please leave a comment below). This will especially be the case for 8K sets. As I have already written, (Samsung"s Colour Performance Seems to Have Reduced with 8K) Samsung is challenged already to meet emerging energy level requirements with its 8K sets. Add dual panel and that compounds the problem.

The other issue that is still something of a concern to me and to quite a lot of others is the issue of burn-in on OLEDs. This is a well established problem and is acknowledged in the broadcast industry. In November last year, the EBU issued guidelines (downloadable here) on how content creators can minimise "image retention" in OLED broadcast monitors (although it"s acknowledged that image sticking can also be an issue for LCDs). That includes recommendations that even with SDR content, the brightness of static images is severely limited (to 40% peak white) and 47% of reference white (35% of peak white level for HDR signals using HLG). It also advises that saturated colours should be avoided on static images.

As we reported from IBC last year, Sony has switched to dual layer LCD for broadcast monitors and it seems likely that this kind of issue was one of the factors (along with limited peak brightness and colour volume for OLEDs and probably a better supply situation for LCD) in that decision.

I have been interested in the idea of dual LCDs for quite a few years. At CES in 2007, Sharp showed its "Mega Contrast" panel which had contrast of 1,000,000:1, but about which the firm would say little. I pondered for a couple of days about how it might be done, then suggested "do you use dual LCDs?". They smiled, but wouldn"t confirm.

Nothing seemed to happen to the concept of the dual modulator (one to control the backlight and one to control the colour) until Panasonic introduced its high end dual LCD panel for broadcast monitoring. At IBC in 2017, I got the chance to see Eizo"s monitor which used the panel next to a high end Sony broadcast OLED monitor. (Eizo Planning CG3145 High Contrast Monitor Shipment)

It was an ephiphany for me. Until then, for many years I had said that, side by side, I would always choose the OLED. "OLED had my heart, but LCD had my brain", I have said many times. However, at that demo, for the first time I would have chosen the LCD. At low levels of luminance, the monitors looked very similar, but as the brightness went up, the OLED looked worse and worse, while the LCD looked better and better. This is because the LCD was capable of "full colour volume" - that is maintaining saturation as the luminance got towards the limit of the display, while the OLED colour shifted and lost saturation above a certain point. The OLED also had a little alarm which warned when you got to the level of luminance where this limiting started.

Anyway, I was then pleased to see over the last couple of years a lot of development work going on to develop the technology for TV. At CES in 2019, Hisense, among others, showed a dual panel TV using a 4K panel on a FullHD modulated backlight.

Since then, there has been lots of talk about dual LCD for TV, and BOE is still developing the idea, it reports. (The company made surprising claims about power efficiency - a long term concern about the idea - at the SID Business Conference, and I plan to return to this topic). There are actually sets on the market (although only a few and in a few markets) now. You can find articles tagged with the topic on the website here.

So, to get to the news in this article... During the DSCC/SID Business Conference, Chuck Milligan of Flexenable mentioned briefly that his firm"s flexible LCD technology could make very thin dual panel LCDs, thinner than single glass LCDs.

Auto makers are looking for really deep contrast, so that the rectangular shape of most displays can be hidden, but they are also looking for conformable displays that can be shaped to match the organic shapes that their designers like. On top of that, auto makers are comfortable with qualifying LCD for their application - something that has been challenging for OLEDs. As the saying goes

I followed up with Paul Cain who is Strategy Director at Flexenable. He gave me more details on the advantages of the use of the firm"s organic transistors, which can be deposited at low temperatures on film. There are a number of problems with the use of glass in dual LCDs, he explained. Effectively, the depth of the display is several times the typical pitch. That means that the light spreads, so the dimming level is not really at pixel level. Further, you typically get moiré issues because of the close match between the modulator and the imager panels.

To eliminate this moiré effect, you typically need a diffuser between the panels when using glass. As well as causing more light spread, this kills the polarisation of the light from the modulator. That means you need two complete panels each with dual polarisers, rather than just three (with the modulator and imager both exploiting a middle one). The final panel can be 1.5mm to 2mm thick, which causes all sorts of diffusion and viewing angle issues. Further, curving a dual glass LCD is extraordinarily difficult. (I"d say impossible, but "don"t bet against the engineers").

Flexenable can use TAC film which is typically just 40 microns thick, so about 10 times thinner than glass. Because of that, you can make a complete dual LCD stack with a thickness around 300 microns (on the first sample with a paper presented at IDW last year). Because the stack is so thin, you can eliminate the diffuser, so you can also maintain polarisation and save a polariser. Even better, in the longer term you could use the polariser layer to deposit the transistors saving even more materials and thickness. Flexenable presented a paper at Display Week (session 85.1 - Organic LCDs Using Polarisers as Substrates - Enabling Pixel Level Dimming in Dual Cell LCDs).

The Hisense U8H matches the excellent brightness and color performance of much pricier LCD TVs, and its Google TV smart platform is a welcome addition. But it’s available in only three screen sizes.

The Hisense U8H is the best LCD/LED TV for most people because it delivers the performance of a much pricier TV yet starts at under $1,000, for the smallest (55-inch) screen size. This TV utilizes quantum dots, a full-array backlight with mini-LEDs, and a 120 Hz refresh rate to deliver a great-looking 4K HDR image. It’s compatible with every major HDR format. And it’s equipped with two full-bandwidth HDMI 2.1 inputs to support 4K 120 Hz gaming from the newest Xbox and PlayStation consoles. Add in the intuitive, fully featured Google TV smart-TV platform, and the U8H’s price-to-performance ratio is of inarguable value.

In terms of design, the Hisense U8H is not as svelte as our upgrade pick, but it’s plenty sturdy and doesn’t look or feel cheap. Two narrow, metal feet jut out from beneath the panel and steadily hold the TV. They can be attached in two separate spots, either closer in toward the middle of the panel or out toward the edges, to account for different-size TV stands. The feet are also equipped with cable organization clasps—a nice touch for keeping your TV stand free of cable clutter. Though the TV is primarily plastic, its bezels are lined with metal strips, providing a bit more durability in the long run. I moved it around my home, and it was no worse for wear, but we’ll know more after doing some long-term testing.

The Hisense U8H has some difficulties with banding, or areas of uneven gradation, where transitions that should appear smooth instead look like “bands” of color (sometimes also called posterization). Like many current 4K HDR TVs, the U8H uses an 8-bit panel rather than a 10-bit panel, which affects the color decoding and color presentation process. This is usually relevant only with HDR video and games. When playing games on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, I saw a few instances where the content wasn’t rendered correctly and displayed ugly splotches of color on the screen. However, this almost always occurred during static screens (such as a pause menu or loading screen); I rarely spotted it during actual gameplay. Hisense has stated that it would address the problem in a future firmware update, but at the time of writing it was still present. This is a flaw that may give dedicated gamers pause, but we don’t consider it to be a dealbreaker for most people.

Finally, like most TVs that use vertical alignment (VA) LCD panels, the U8H has a limited horizontal viewing angle, which may be a bit annoying if you’re hoping to entertain a large crowd. Our upgrade pick uses a special wide-angle technology to address this.

The Rock Pi 4C is identical to the Rock Pi 4B except for the addition of a 2-lane mini-DisplayPort. Along with the existing HDMI 2.0a port, this enables dual simultaneous displays. The HDMI port has been switched to a micro-HDMI, although with the same up to 4K @ 60Hz support. The mini-DP 1.2 port is limited to 2560 x 1440 @ 60Hz.

The Rock Pi B and C models differ from the Model A in that they include dual-band WiFi-ac and Bluetooth. Pricing remains the same as listed in our January Linux hacker board catalog, which also lists many other RK3399 based SBCs. The Model A costs $39 (1GB), $49 (2GB), or $65 (4GB). The Model B sells for $49 (1GB), $59 (2GB), or $75 (4GB).

Dual simultaneous display support is rarely seen on under-$200 maker boards. Other examples include the Amlogic based Khadas Vim3 boards, including the lower-end, $70 and up Khadas Vim3L and the Allwinner H8 based, $90 Cubieboard 5.
