NEC Launches New Low Priced DS Displays

Yesterday, NEC Display announced the addition of a new ProAV-grade product line, the E Series. Debuting for this entry-level series are the 32-inch E321 and 42-inch E421, which NEC says gives corporate users an affordable option for lobbies, boardrooms and small conference rooms, while addressing the display needs of digital signage users in retails stores, waiting rooms, and health clubs.

Although these are labeled “entry-level,” it’s hard, looking at the specs, to differentiate these 32-inch and 42-inch monitors from higher-end models as they are native 1080p LCDs with a 4000:1 contrast ratio spec, use less than 190 watts of power, have HDMI and analog inputs, and integrate ATSC (HDTV) tuners. Plus, they’re priced at $499 and $849, respectively!  Both will ship next month.
