LG Hard Glass LCD Monitors

LG have released a new series of toughened LCD monitors. LCD monitors that provide resistant to hard strikes have been on the market for many years now. So what makes the new LG 42pp series monitors so special?

Well for a start, the main difference is that these monitors are a fraction of the price of normal hard glass monitors. There are 2 versions currently available with the L1742pp and the L1942pp, 17” and 19” respectively.

The monitors look the same as a standard LCD monitor with the exception that these utilise a 7H rated hardness panel. This means nothing to the average person; all you really need to know is that standard monitors have a hardness rating of 2H or less.

These monitors have been designed with high usage areas in mind such as schools, libraries, internet cafes and also airports. These are the type of surroundings where the monitors are exposed to greater dangers than in a normal office environment.

During testing LG dropped a steel ball weighing 1.2lbs on the glass surface and it remained intact and unscathed.

With prices for these monitors starting at £105 which makes them a very attractive proposition for anyone looking to replace their existing monitors or for those people looking to install new monitors into these high usage areas.
