Today we will look at the monitor MLC-2702G from Denver from the year 2018. Within this article, we will first take a closer look at the most important feature of a monitor -the display-, then the design, and in the next section we will go into the features of the monitor. Of course, power consumption, certifications, connectivity and other important details will also be considered.
Display
Videos and/or other applications can be displayed on the monitor's 27 inches ( 68.5 cm on the diagonal). Television screens and monitors usually have an aspect ratio of 16:9 (approximately 1.78:1). More rarely, computer monitors are also found with an aspect ratio of 16:10.
Ultrawidemonitors are often manufactured with an aspect ratio of 21:9 (approximately 2.34:1). They are mainly used for computer games and as an alternative to two side-by-side screens. The first devices of this type came onto the market around 2014. Against this backdrop, the monitor MLC-2702G from Denver faces an aspect ratio of 1.778 : 1. The display is a VA panel. The panel has a resolution of 1920 x 1080 px. The pixel density is 81 ppi. The pixel pitch is 0.311 mm. The continuous possible brightness specified by the manufacturer Denver is 250 nt. The panel is illuminated by W-LED. The built-in panel ensures stable color reproduction of the image, even at deviating viewing angles, by means of its 178 ° (horizontal) viewing angle. Denver promises stable color reproduction moreover within a 178 ° vertical angle. Vertically, however, the image renews at a minimum rate of 144 hz up to 144 hz. The minimum response time of the monitor is ms.
Color space
The panel has a bit depth of 8 per color channel, but what does that mean? The number of bits determines how many colors can be encoded for the individual pixels of the display. For an 8-bit panel, for example, this is 256 different colors (2^8 = 256). However, since we usually display three different colors per pixel at the same time, in theory about 16 million (256^3) different colors are possible by mixing the three pixels. A 10-bit panel could even display a billion colors. According to the manufacturer, the coverage of the SRGB color space is 92 %.
Contrast ratio
Contrast ratio is a common measurement used to represent the maximum relative differences in brightness between black and white. It describes the ability of a screen or projector to produce a high-contrast image and is the quotient of the maximum and minimum displayable luminance. The higher the values are away from each other, the stronger the quantitatively seen difference between black and white is set up, which in turn results in an improved image quality. This monitor from Denver has a static contrast ratio of 3000 : 1 , according to the manufacturer.
HDR
The monitor supports all HDR modes listed here:
screen design
The size of the monitor (stand included) is 44.5 x 61.2 x 24 cm (HxWxD). The device weighs 6.6 kg with the stand in place.
Curved
The MLC-2702G is a curved monitor with a curvature of 1.8 m
Rotate, tilt and swivel
The monitor from Denver cannot be rotated. The monitor cannot be swiveled. This feature could be retrofitted with a third-party stand. A tilt function was not provided by Denver with the included stand.
Ports
camera
This monitor does not have a camera.
Loudspeaker
The monitor from Denver has integrated speakers, for playing sounds, music or speech. The sound is emitted via 2 speakers, which are integrated into the device. Each of the built-in speakers has a contingent of 3 w power.
Features
Game mode allows you to enjoy an enhanced gaming experience on your monitor. This mode can combine different settings on your monitor to provide a better picture and therefore an improved gaming experience. "Overdrive" is a feature of the MLC-2702G , which improves the response time of the pixels to reduce motion blur. This involves increasing the voltage of the pixels to make them switch more quickly between color values. This allows fast-moving images and videos to be displayed more clearly and smoothly. However, too high an overdrive setting, even on this model from Denver , can lead to so-called "ghosting", where a shadow image of the previous image is visible on the current image. It is therefore important to configure the overdrive settings appropriately depending on the monitor and application.
WiFi / Bluetooth
Power consumption
The maximum power consumption (peak) specified for this monitor is 40 w. In standby mode, the device consumes approximately 0.5 w. The monitor can be operated on a 110v power supply. The monitor can be operated on a 220v power supply. The power grid has to supply a frequency of 50 hz to 60 hz.
Environment
Packaging
The monitor is packaged in a cardboard box measuring 46.6 x 70.1 x 14.3 cm (height x width x depth).
