or

Contrast:250:1
Brightness:400:1

Assuming all things else are equal, the brighter, the better.

If that second brightness is 400 cd/m2, go with that.

Which units are you refering to.

They look interesting, and perhaps someone with better "technical" knowledge about screens will chime in. HOWEVER, the one thing I notice is that those can't be actual pics. I tend to not like the absence of actual pics. Leads me to think that they do not actually exist, or scare me to think that they might look real ugly. You can tell that is not the actual pic because they are darn humongous compard to the finger pushing on the screen.

SkyPro is the master of the bad out-of-scale photochops.

That said, their products are resold by some of our favorite vendors, all of whom have an excellent track record of selling reliable products.
For example, this SkyPro model, the DLTS700B is sold by DigitalWW as the DWW-700M. This 6.5" double-DIN unit from SkyPro will also be sold by DigitalWW in the very near future. And is this a Lilliput 619 that I see?

That said, dealing with this company as an individual might be extremely frustrating, since they are a distributor trying to get their products in the hands of resellers, not to individual consumers.
They're in Hong kong, making returns a near impossibility, especially from the U.S. Granted, this might not be as big an issue if you aren't in the U.S., but I'm of the opinion that I'd much rather not muck around with international shipping to get the job done.

hey i found a photo of it, does it look o.k?

Like I said, brightness is most important.

However, your question is like saying, which is a better, a car that is fast and doesn't handle well, or a car that handles well but is not fast. The other problem is, saying that the car that handles 50 better then the other, but is 100 slower. While there are units attached to those numbers for the screen, it is hard to quantify them by saying, 50 less contrast means XYZ and 100 Brighter mean ABC. The only real way to know is to get both and check them out side by side.

My opinion is that 50 of contrast will be hard to detect, and once again, the brighter the better.

I am not sure if it means it, but the DL800 decription says:

Touch Screen USB Interface(Stylus Included)

The "Stylus Included" part may be troubling. Also in the picture they are using one too. It may not be necessary, but some touchscreens don't work without a stylus. Plus it doesn't look like it is in English.

thanks man, ok one last q....
saw this one now aswell


but its contrast is 200:1 with 400cd/m2 brighness but its resolution is also 921600 pixels wheres the other one is 1440000 Pixels, usually u guys like the lilliputs more, im wonder if its because they look better or because its a known brand?
