I found this sentence to be hilarious:
> The color-accurate 2.5K slim-bezel NanoEdge Dolby Vision screen is also PANTONE® Validated with TÜV Rheinland-certified low blue-light levels.
It's the second sentence on the page, prominently at the top. Do they expect the average consumer knows what any of that means?
There's more made up marketing BS there than English.

- ballenf 4y agoThey're counting on their target market to feel superior to others by knowing (or pretending to know) and thus being more likely purchase. These statements also give purchasers psychological cover for spending an exorbitant amount. This is not some overpriced pedestrian device.
- ansgri 4y agoUnfortunately this proprietary marketing-speak BS makes it easy to sell to creative professionals and those who care about color, and does signal somewhat well-defined properties. DolbyVision works well if you have the proprietary stack (it's the format newer iPhones shoot HDR videos in -- and even DaVinci Resolve didn't support it last I checked), and PANTONE does reasonably solve the important problem of color matching.
