English term or phrase: since
Tablet makers are hoping to see more screens with improved vertical viewing angles, since the devices are used in a variety of handheld and tabletop positions. “LCD makers gave you wide viewing angles horizontally but narrow vertically since you could tilt the screen,” said Bernhard.
“LCD生产商能够提供宽广的水平视角,但垂直视角却很狭窄,因为你可以把屏幕倾斜过来。”这句话啥意思?逻辑不明啊?!

Chinese translation:我的理解
Explanation:
早期液晶显示屏的主要缺点之一是视角比较窄,就是说,只有正对着屏幕的人才能看清画面,稍微偏一点,屏幕就变黑、变暗,甚至完全看不到图象。厂家为了克服这个缺点做了很多努力,但努力主要集中在水平视角的拓展方面,在垂直方向上较少改进,因为没有太大的必要性。人们在日常的活动中,垂直方向上的移动范围实际上很小。在特别需要转换垂直视角的场合,调整一下显示屏的仰俯就行了。这就是这句话背后的逻辑。:))

试译:

“LCD厂家生产的显示屏,水平方向具有较广的视角,但垂直方向的视角却很窄,因为你可以在必要时调整屏幕的仰俯角度。”

Explanation:
tilt the screen£¬ 水平地左右转动。
比如, 你想让你右前方的人看到你的屏幕, 就把他水平地向右旋转。

垂直地前后旋转, 现在还做不到。

SINCE = 因为, 没错, 它后面的从句, 只与主句的前半部分有关, 和VERTICAL 没有关联。 VERY BAD ENGLISH。

AADD “ONLY” ---could ONLY tilt , 逻辑就通了。

Explanation:
  水平视角,LCD厂家做得宽,但垂直视角,由于可以上下倾斜,就做窄了(不做这么宽了)

  想像一下,如果我们在生活中遇到这样的情况,会怎么说呢?
