Display Analysis
Out of the box, the colour reproduction is excellent, and it’s great to see the 95% P3 as it means my new monitor tester is working great, as my old one couldn’t detect colours that high on P3. However, what’s great is the monitor claimed 92% of DCI-P3 so obviously, 95% is even better.
This was a weird one though, the Gamma Mode 1 is really Gamma 2.0.
Mode 2 came out at 2 also but a little better on the curve.
While mode 3 came out at 2.5, so they’re all wrong really. However, I found Gamma 2 actually looked like the better option. As you can see below, all three settings resulted in a fairly similar grey ramp, with a fairly small deviation of around 200-250 Kelvin, however, the second one (Gamme profile 2), has the smoothest output overall.
100% sRGB and 95% DCI-P3 is great, but using the out-of-the-box settings (and gamma mode 1), the colours are actually pretty fantastic. Anything under Delta-E 5 is generally pretty good, and under 3 is excellent, so hitting a 1.6 average is fantastic.
I put the monitor in Gamma mode 2 and set the colour temp to Warm and bam, we got that average to 1.01, which means colour-sensitive work can be done with confidence on this monitor.
