Philips Brings Quantum Dot Monitors to Europe
The Philips 27" Full HD monitor (276E6ADS) delivers 99% Adobe RGB color thanks to Color IQ technology from QD Vision.
"Quantum dot technology is changing the way monitor users think about color, and the new 27" E Line monitor is the first on the market to showcase this new technology," said Stefan Sommer, Director Marketing & Business Management EMEA at MMD. "QD Vision is helping us create a monitor with 99% Adobe RGB color at a very aggressive price point, making it accessible to everyone who uses a monitor."
The new E line monitor with Color IQ is ideal for entertainment and gaming, as well as professional photography and design. The 276E6ADS combines Color IQ optics with full HD resolution, resulting in a professional-quality display at the price of mainstream desktop monitors.
"The superior color of our edge-lit quantum dots and our strong price-performance characteristics make them an ideal catalyst for positive disruption in the global monitor industry," said Matt Mazzuchi, Vice President, Market and Business Development at QD Vision. "Our close collaboration with Philips monitors brought this full gamut color monitor to European consumers."
The new E6 quantum dot monitor will be available in October 2015 in Europe

and some "nice" cadmium as well (Q-dot)
while other (non samsung panel) brands like LG can provide the same/"better" color without using Cad...
and as long as OLED have a third of the brightness of an led,
only last a few years before dropping another 50% in brightness,
i dont see it making sense to spend twice as much (or more).

I have no idea what gives with that technology. We have TVs but not displays.
And let's face it, the burn-in issue has been solved mostly. At least to a degree where it could be used for displays.

Question: Why were plasma monitors never a mainstream thing? And I mean modern plasma, not those oldschool monochrome plasma monitors used in the mesozoic era. Dat 1981 PLATO V plasma display.

The last generation of plasmas were superior to LCDs in most ways. I bought a plasma TV knowing it didn't have the same burn in/power consumption/loss of brightness/aging problems older generation plasmas did. I've had it for years now and it hasn't lost any noticeable amount of brightness, the power consumption is listed as a typical 109W on the back (which is crazy, that's less than standard LCDs of the same size), it has viewing angles an LCD can't reproduce along with contrast.
Anyway, I'm selling some quantum air for anyone interested. It lights itself up... but you have to superheat it into plasma first.

I'm sorry to hear it. I was expecting it to last for much longer :/
Regarding this monitor and color reproduction, if they price it right, it may be a killer feature. Having wide gamut monitors at home (good old HP2475W) and work (Dell U2713H), it's really difficult to switch to one incapable of covering the most of AdobeRGB.
It would be great to find QHD + wide gamut + low lag + adaptive refresh rate + acceptable price. Even at standard static 60Hz, such monitors are really expensive.
