What is viewing angle?

The preferred viewing angle is the direction in which the display will have the highest contrast.
Viewing directions are specified in terms of a clock position, where the viewer will look at the
display from the preferred direction:

• East 3 O’clock

• South 6 O’clock

• West 9 O’clock

• North 12 O’clock

South 6 O’clock and North 12 O’clock are the most commonly used for all display types.
