Progress in the mobile world is measured in millimeters and judged by how many millimeters you can shave off any particular component. In this case, progress in LCD panel technology is measured in bezel thickness. LG and Philips have announced another industry first in their breakthrough “narrow bezel” 2.4-inch LCD panel.
Designed for mobile device applications, the 2.4-inch a-Si TFT-LCD panel is bordered by a 1mm-thick bezel – the smallest in the industry. Resolution is still an average 320 x 240 pixels, so there’s no real innovation on that front. But with a 1mm bezel, this new LCD panel is sure to look pretty slick in mobile applications when the “narrow bezel” LCD is slated to hit mass production next year.
We’ll be keeping an eye out for these near-borderless LCD displays next year.
