Combination of Best Desktop Monitor and LCD TV Technology

ASUS has launched the TV Monitor T1 Series, which is a combination of the best desktop monitor and LCD TV technology that enables it to deliver HD TV broadcasting and Full HD Blu-ray Disc playback for the ultimate entertainment and job experience.

The T1 Series has inbuilt TV tuners, large screen monitors that consist of 22-inch, 24-inch and 27-inch sizes that enable users to watch digital (DVB-T) and analog (PAL/SECAM) channels and enjoy all common TV functions in Europe.

Besides, the T1 Series also blows surround sound with a couple of 7-Watt speakers, a rich complement of I/O ports catering to various connectivity needs and ASUS’ exclusive Splendid Video Intelligence Technology for spectacular color reproduction.

Moreover, the monitor has an integrated TV tuner that receives both digital (DVB-T) and analog (PAL/SECAM) signals. It supports all common TV functions, delivering a complete HD TV watching experience.

Even this series supports Full HD 1080p (1920×1080) and sports a pair of HDMI inputs, enabling the delivery of the highest quality content from Blu-ray Disc players through a single cable. Its riches of I/O ports, including HDMIx2, SCARTx2, D-Sub, Composite, Component, S-Video, audio-in jack, S/PDIF out, audio out, earphone out and CI slot enable simultaneous connections to myriad video playback devices such as DVD players and set-top boxes.

Furthermore, this series features ASUS Smart Contrast Ratio (ASCR) technology that bumps up the display’s contrast ratio to an astounding 20000:1 for crisper, more realistic pictures during gameplay or movie viewing.

Another attractive point is that the TV Monitor TV T1 also comes with an intelligent remote control that enables users to adjust settings conveniently and easily.

Since it has a large 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio, it boosts users’ productivity and offers a perfect solution for web browsing, e-mail composing, document editing and creative work. Splendid Standard Mode also ensures that every detail in graphics, documents and websites is captured crisply and in optimized color-greatly enhancing comfort during viewing.

Judging by the design, the T1 Series is designed not just to complement, but enhance, the interiors of today’s contemporary homes. Defined by sensuous curves and embellished with chic gold accents, an intricate floral-patterned speaker mesh and a gorgeous high gloss stand, the T1 Series is more akin to a piece of modern furniture than an electronic device.

Its eye-catching visual performance-no matter regardless of video source-is comparable to a large-sized living room television, thanks to features such as a 2D/3D comb-filter, noise reduction, 3D de-interlace, 2:2/3:2 pull down and the exclusive Splendid™ Video Intelligence Technology and tint adjustment. Splendid Video Intelligence Technology adjusts the displays’ parameters to ensure optimized colors with the four preset modes (Scenery, Night View, Game and Standard).
