Viewing Effects Summary
Editorial Note: This is a review of the Memorex MLT3221. Test results are for this model, but should indicate the general performance of other sizes in the MLT series. The MLT series includes the following models: MLT1921, MLT2221, MLT2621. Read here for more details on series differences.
• Average viewing angle for an LCD.
• Minor reflectance issues.
• Noise reduction is the only processing feature.
• Testing done using DisplayMate Software.
Viewing Angle (5.11)
The Memorex MLT3221 had a total viewing angle of about 47º. That means once you're about 23º away from dead center, the picture's contrast will be reduced by 50%. This is a slightly wider than average viewing angle for an LCD; typically you're lucky to get 30°.

Reflectance (7.00)
The MLT3221 wasn't very reflective. It reduced our LED array to a diffuse glow, with only a faint reflection of the individual lights. You shouldn't have much of an issue if a light is shining directly at the screen. If the light is at an angle it'll create a bright reflection on the glossy bezel, but not bright enough to be particularly distracting.
Video Processing (1.0)
There is only one video processing feature: noise reduction. When active, it will noticeably reduce noise.
