LG switches on latest display

Small scale, good features

LG has unveiled its latest small size display for the high definition (HD) consumer, which wouldn’t look out of place in the bedroom or as a dedicated gaming screen.

LG M228WD: Moderate size, sleek appeal

The 22in widescreen display, dubbed M228WD, has a 1680 x 1050 resolution and sits within a stylish gloss black frame. It also has a 3000:1 contrast ratio and, if you’re planning to watch a film with friends spread out across a sofa then its 170° viewing angle should be enough to ensure everyone gets a good view.

It boasts an HDMI connection too, so you can hook it up to your Blu-ray or HD DVD player or even your Xbox 360 Elite, for example. It has a built-in digital tuner to satisfy telly buffs as well. Equally, the 5ms response time should mean you’re not waiting long before an image is displayed on-screen.

The M228WD will be available in the UK next month, but a price hasn’t been released yet.
