thats much better than the other one

lemme try to explain viewing angle..

If youre looking at the screen, and its right in front of your eyes that 0 degrees. If you move the screen up and down from the position of your eyes, like if you were to mount the screen low, the screen woudl start to be hard to see. Its 20 degrees up/down is dependant on how close you sit to it as well..

if i get u correct is that viewing angle is the angle in which ur viewing the screen. so if im sittin in the passenger seat and the screen is in the middle of the dash turned toword the passenger then the viewing angle would be about 0 because i would be looking directly at the screen. but if im in the back seat and the screen is turned straight pointin to the rear then that whould be a viewing angle of about 40

if you view outside the degrees of "veiwing angle" the picture becomes worse and harder to see.. ie the mroe the tv has to be straight on with you, if you angle it up if its below you to have your eyes fall inside that 20 degrees, but then it becomes harder to not have a ginat tv sticking out frmo the dash
