There's an rLCD 32" monitor from a vendor called Sun Vision, at roughly the same price. They usually make outdoor signage displays, but recently decided to produce a desktop monitor too. I spent some time researching it a few months back, but didn't end up buying it because there's no way to test it before buying where I live (only in the UK where they have a sales rep).
Reportedly, rLCD looks spectacularly good in bright sunlight. It also doesn't have the ghosting and low FPS issues that eInk displays (still) have. Its resolution might be lower than eInk (equivalent of full HD IIRC), but that's hard to compare I guess. Anyway, rLCD seems like a more promising solution to eyestrain to me - with enough ambient lighting, those are almost equivalent to a normal display.
- smcleod 3y agoIs it lit from behind still though? Also - FHD is really dreadful on a 14” screen - I can’t imagine it’s going to be anything but on a 30~
- manmal 3y agoIIRC think it’s front lit. About the resolution - I agree, that could be bad.
- bartvk 3y agoIt looks like this is the product: https://www.sunvisiondisplay.com/product/The-NEW-rE-Monitor-Featuring-32-Color-RLCD-Technology https://www.sunvisiondisplay.com/product/The-NEW-rE-Monitor-... Note that it says in the US and UK, you can send it back. They don't mention any return costs, but you can definitely try it out.
- manmal 3y agoI think I wouldn’t get import taxes back, so that would probably cost €300 (incl shipping) just for trying out.
