5 ms response time

One of the most important features for an LCD panel is the pixel response time. Response time refers to how long it takes pixels to turn from completely white to black and back again - the lower the milliseconds (ms), the faster the response time is. A fast 5 ms response time virtually eliminates any blurring and gives you smooth-motion action scenes.
