There are more and more e-ink displays that provide relief from eye complaints and can help you concentrate better on your work.
How E Ink Works
Philips has released a split-screen monitor that features both a black and white e-ink panel and a full-color LCD. The e-ink display is intended to provide a paper-like viewing experience that makes it useful for reading e-books, while the regular LCD will be useful for video and gaming, among other things.
“The main advantage of e-Ink displays is that they can display information in an extremely low-power state, making them ideal for devices that require long battery life,” Kelvin Wira, founder of Superpixel, an animation agency, told Lifewire in an email interview. “In addition, they are also very easy to read in bright sunlight and have a wide viewing angle.”
The new Philips 24B1D5600/96 dual-screen monitor tries to give you the best of both worlds by combining the two display types. There's a 24-inch color LCD monitor on the left and a 13.3-inch e-Ink display on the right.
