Thread: 2006/2007 Lilliput 7 inch vs new 2008 Lilliput 7' inch

I'm looking for a full review of the 2008.

The mp3car store pictures look drastically different, but then again, it could be marketing.

With that said:

There is nothing printed on it to indicate a version?

2008 model is LED backlit...pretty big difference there.

On most electronics, on the back side, there's a sticker that shows the manufacturing date.

I would expect a pretty big difference, I was just hoping to see some home/car pictures of it.

The manufacturing date could be a cross over of 2007 when it's a 2008 version.

I'll look on the back of mine when I get home (not installed yet).

It's a shame it's not the 701 model...would make it easy to drop a new one in. Hopefully I'm satisfied post install enough not to be envious of the availability of a better screen for only $60ish more than I paid.

If you found your answer, please update the thread~

I just got my lilliput shipped (haven't received it yet) and as soon as it was shipped, the new version came out. that *****es me off. is there a way I can get the new one (for free preferably)

OK here's my problem,

Check:
http://www.lilliputuk.com/joomla/ind...=75&Itemid=101
and
http://www.lilliputweb.net/ts629.html

The stats from the websites quote these monitors as only:
Contrast : 250:1
Brightness : 350 cd/m2

Has someone bought one of these from Mp3Car does the box say contrast 500:1 and 400cd/m2 brightness?

I don't mind paying the extra $80 for the extra brightness but I just want to make sure it's not a gimmick or typo!

Thank you!!!

Per the page on the store:

http://store.mp3car.com/ProductDetai...Show=TechSpecs

Some manuals have not been changed and may say incorrectly that the ratio is 200:1.

We have contacted Lilliput directly and have confirmed that they have not updated some of their documentation.

We've noticed this on the new Xenarc boxes as well...two different manufacturers...neither have updated their packaging/documentation.

I ordered a 7" 629 as well and recieved a 8" 889 anyone else have this problem?

If you have that issue, I'd suggest sending an email to store@mp3car.com to get it fixed.

LED backlit finally makes it to production! Ill be keeping my eye on these.
