It boasts a large HD LCD (1920x1080) engineered to output up to 1.06 Billion colors, making it an optimal choice for high-quality video content. Most notable about the VO370M is its 178-degree viewing angle, which results in crisp and clear pictures from any seat within its vicinity. Many may note the V0370M’s expensive price, but do keep in mind its 15,000:1 contrast ratio, which far exceeds many of its competitors’ capabilities.
