What is the viewing angle of a 5.7-inch LCD screen?
There is no fixed standard answer for the "viewing angle" of a 5.7-inch LCD screen, which mainly depends on the panel technology used (such as IPS or TN) and the specific model. Screens from different technologies and brands have significant differences in viewing angles.
Generally speaking, IPS screens have a wider viewing angle, while TN screens have a relatively narrower viewing angle. To give you an intuitive concept, some common 5.7-inch industrial LCD screen models and their parameters:
Panel Type | Representative model | Typical viewing angle (left/right/up/down) |
IPS (Wide View Technology) |
| 85°/85°/85°/85°(Ultra wide angle) |
Kyocera TCG057VGLGA-G50 | 80°/80°/80°/80° |
TN (twisted nematic) |
| 65°/65°/55°/52° (Narrow up and down viewing angles) |
TIANMA TM057QDH01 | 70°/70°/70°/60° |
| 70°/70°/45°/55° |
Why is there such a big difference?
This is mainly determined by the display technology of the screen:
IPS screen (as shown in the first two models in the table): Liquid crystal molecules are arranged parallel to the screen, which makes light more directional when passing through. Therefore, from any angle, color and brightness attenuation is minimal, and the viewing angle is extremely large, usually reaching over 80 ° in all four directions.
TN screen (as shown in the last three items in the table): Liquid crystal molecules twist under voltage control, and the light output has a clear directionality. Therefore, when viewed from different angles, brightness and color decay quickly, especially in the vertical direction (up/down) where the viewing angle is usually narrower than in the horizontal direction (left/right).
How to confirm the screen you are concerned about?
If you want to know the viewing angle of the screen on a specific device (such as car displays, industrial equipment, old game consoles, etc.), the most accurate method is:
Check the product specification sheet: If you can find the model of the screen, simply search for its "datasheet" or "specification sheet", which is usually clearly labeled in the "optical characteristics" section.
Contact device manufacturers or suppliers: they can provide the most accurate technical parameters.
I hope this information can help you better understand the viewing angle of a 5.7-inch LCD screen. If you have specific screen models or would like to know about a particular brand, please let me know and we will provide you with detailed specifications.
