Was looking at this but about this? LCDs Normally White vs Normally Black as the bigger is normaly white and the smaller is normaly black ? Can some one explain if this is an issue using it for an Magic Mirror?

Buying bigger things outside the EU you will have to pay toll and taxes on it. Not worth it.

Or Try finding a used monitor with hdmi on www.blocket.se
The small ones usually are dirt cheap!

The LED monitors often has a stronger light output/contrast are therefor better suited for a magicmirror, but a normal tft/ccfl screen works also. It’s more up to the lighttransmissin of your mirror in the end.

@broberg That i know and the thing is that i want the mirror to be only seven centimeters thick as the location where it will hang it on the wall don´t let me have a thicker frame so this is why i try to find the best solution.
