Yes, they are. The beautiful monitor you see before you is LG's latest LCD monitor, the W53 SMART. It has these so-called "smart" features like ambient light detection, Cinema Mode (to black out everything else when you're watching a video), a timer that tells you when you should take a break, and a proximity sensor "to activate the monitor controls when your hand approaches the display, and hide them when you're not tweaking anything." These sexed-up monitors have a 2ms response time, a 50,000:1 contrast ratio and will come in various sizes ranging from 18.5 to 27-inches. If you decide to get this monitor, I'd advise you to choose something upwards of 21.5-inches because they will have a 1,920 x 1,080 1080p Full HD resolution at a 16:9 aspect ratio. These monitors should be available worldwide by the end of this month, so it's not that long of a wait. Unfortunately, no prices have been mentioned yet.
