There’s a massive difference between the contrast of that outdoors on a shitty panel (where you’re lucky to get 5:1 contrast) and indoors in a light-controlled environment (where 200:1 contrast is easily reached).
And yes, that 200:1 contrast can get painful, especially if you’ve got astigmatism.
- hedora 4y agoI have astigmatism. Contrast isn't an issue. Brightness might be. There are knobs for these on most displays.
- kuschku 4y agoAlternative option: Contrast is only an issue if your monitor is worse than a Fujitsu Siemens P17-2, a monitor from 2004 that nowadays retails for 20 €. If you bought a monitor at any point in the past 18 years that can’t show enough contrast, that’s on you.
