Optimize your Windows 8 experience with LG Electronics’ Touch 10 monitor, which allows you to use all your ten fingers simultaneously, unlike conventional touchscreens that merely enable two-finger dragging, scrolling and pinching. This allows users to perform a number of new actions, such as dragging and rotating of multiple items at the same time, offering tablet and smartphone users an improved, yet more intuitive user experience.
"This is a compelling new product that re-imagines the touch experience and shows that LG is an industry leader in developing the next generation of touch monitor products,” said HK Kwon, Managing Director of LG Electronics Malaysia. “Smartphones and tablets have already proven that consumers are ready to fully embrace touch features. Our 10-point touchscreen takes it one step further by exponentially expanding the range of interactive possibilities. We believe this technology will excite and inspire software developers and users alike.”
Thanks to the Touch 10’s capabilities, users will be able to enjoy a great selection of musical applications including virtual pianos, synthesizers and string instruments. At 23-inches, its bigger display also makes watching movies and playing games much more enjoyable. From a consumer standpoint, the monitor’s setup is also refreshingly hassle-free, as full touch functionality is available out of the box with no extra software required.
With the Touch 10, users will also be able make the most out of Windows 8’s brand new features such as the on-screen keyboard. More than that, it can also be used with a capacitive stylus, which can be purchased separately, if users prefer a pen-like interface.
"It’s great to see LG bringing touch to computing in innovative new ways," said John Case, Vice President WW OEM Marketing, Microsoft Corporation. "Pairing LG’s Touch 10 monitor with a desktop or non-touch laptop will help create amazing Windows 8 touch experiences for customers."
Besides its touchscreen capabilities, this monitor also ensures optimal picture quality with an advanced In-Plane Switching (IPS) panel, which has inherent advantages over conventional Twisted Nematic (TN) displays in terms of both color and clarity. This results in a range of colors that are both vibrant and natural, with good contrast and overall consistency. IPS technology also provides a more comfortable viewing experience for the user, reducing eye strain and thereby allowing extended periods of use.
Set for release in December, the Touch 10 monitor will be available in Korea first, followed by other markets.
