What is the Best Viewing Angle for Monitors?
The viewing angle is the maximum LCD view angle at which the user can see the image with acceptable quality.
This concept is closely related to the grey scale inversion phenomenon. When the user exceeds a certain angle (monitor viewing angle), one can note a sudden change in displayed colors. It mainly emerges with the grey color’s domination in the displayed image.
Theoretically, the maximum LCD view angle is 90° and might vary for each measuring direction. The three-dimensional angular range is called a viewing cone.
Why is a viewing angle important?
Viewing angles has a huge impact on the kind of image you are going to view on your screen. The quality of the image that you are seeing on the screen depends on the distance you are standing at, the direction you are viewing it from and the angle you are viewing it from.
The viewing angles of screens are measured both vertically and horizontally to find out at what range of angles a display can be viewed without seeing a negative image.
If you view the image from an angle wider than the viewing angle of the display, you’ll not be able to experience the best visuals.
LCD displays are supposed to be viewed by the audience and provide the audience with a good viewing experience.
If the image displayed on the screen cannot be viewed by the audience properly, then there’s no point in wall mounting LCD display. For this reason, it is important to ensure that the LCD display has an appropriate viewing angle needed for the usage and location of the wall mounting LCD display.
Before getting an LCD display, you should always consider the location and purpose of the LCD display to ensure that all of the audience enjoys the best view of the content displayed on the screen.
What is a good angle of view for an LCD display?
For household televisions, the best viewing angle is from 0 to 15 degrees. This angle of view makes the television viewing experience the most comfortable. With this viewing angle, you can comfortably watch tv and have the best visual experience. This is also the reason why sitting in front of the cinema is uncomfortable since the viewing angle is not suitable.
However, this is only the case when you are watching TV in the lounge on a couch.
If you are installing your TV in your bedroom and are going to watch it while lying down on your bed, then you’ll have to install it higher up. You should install it over 100cm. It is recommended that it should be installed with a slope of 95 to 100 degrees.
For outdoor LCD advertising, a wider angle is preferred.
Before installing any LCD display, you should always consider all the different aspects of it and make sure to get the feel of viewing from different angles to make sure the LCD display can be viewed comfortably from the place you want to view it from. This allows the audience to have the best viewing experience when viewing the content.
Differences in panel technologies
VA panel
The so-called vertical alignment or VA panels work with horizontally aligned pixels and are not the best choice in terms of viewing angles.
Compared to other standards, the picture quality decreases quite a lot at higher viewing distances. To compensate for this disadvantage, Samsung uses Wide Viewing Angle technology at this point. The result is a better-quality picture when viewed at an angle.
IPS Panel Switching
In opposite to VA panels, IPS panels score with a higher viewing angle. This is made possible by the so-called In-Plane Switching method. The pixels are initially aligned horizontally – as in the VA panel – but rotate parallel to the image plane.
