Radiant Monitor 2 is readable even in direct sunlight and consumes only 3 watts
The Radiant Monitor from 2024 is getting a successor that, at first glance, offers similar specifications. As before, Eazeye is using a transflective LCD with a screen diagonal of 15.6 inches, a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 pixels, and a refresh rate of 60 Hz. However, the new model promises better image quality thanks to a higher contrast ratio, more accurate colors, and a UHR coating designed to reduce reflections.
The low-light mode has also been improved and is designed to be easier on the eyes thanks to a warm color temperature and a lower minimum backlight brightness. The basic concept remains unchanged: the transflective LCD is designed to outperform conventional mobile displays, especially in bright daylight. This is because the screen uses reflected ambient light, similar to E Ink, so it remains perfectly readable even in direct sunlight.
Since the backlight can be turned off in this case, power consumption drops to about 3 watts during the day, making the Radiant Monitor 2 ideal for use on the go with a laptop – though at 1.77 kilograms, it is quite heavy. Eazeye advertises a contrast ratio of 1,000:1, a response time of 5 milliseconds, and a viewing angle of 65 degrees, meaning the viewing angle stability is significantly worse than that of conventional IPS panels. It can be connected to a computer via either USB-C or HDMI.
Pricing and availability
The Radiant Monitor 2 is available at Eazeye’s online store for $789. The price does not include shipping costs, import sales tax, and customs duties. According to Eazeye, it can take up to three months from order to delivery.
