Overview
This HTS category encompasses color monitors that incorporate video recording or reproducing apparatus. These devices are distinct from their non-recording counterparts and are characterized by their primary function as display screens for visual content, coupled with the capability to store or play back video. The diagonal measurement of the video display screen, specifically not exceeding 34.29 cm, is a critical determining factor for classification within this subheading.
The key differentiator from sibling category 8528.59.40.00, also classified under "Other" color monitors, lies in the integrated video recording or reproducing functionality. While both are color monitors and not incorporating television reception apparatus, this specific subheading applies only when the unit possesses built-in capabilities to record or play back video content. This integrated functionality, beyond a simple display, necessitates its separate classification.
As this HTS subheading is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification of a product within 8528.59.35.00 will be definitive based on its physical characteristics (color display, screen size) and its functional capability to record or reproduce video, differentiating it from other monitor types.
