    Unique technology that dynamically analyzes

    backlighting for clearer, crisper and brighter images 
    or dimming backlighting for clear display of images 
    on dark backgrounds.

    You want the ver y best visual clarity and viewing 
    comfor t for ever y type of content. Smar tContrast

    office work. By reducing your monitor's power 
    consumption, you save on energy costs and 
    extend the lifetime of your monitor. 
      How does it work? 
    When	you	activate	Smar tContrast, 	it	will	analyse	
    the content you are displaying in real time to 
    adjust colors and control backlight intensity. This 
    function will dynamically enhance contrast for a
