It seems like this monitor was made just for me (I have the curved version). I haven’t seen anyone else leave positive comments, but in my case, it’s fantastic. I use it to program over 8 hours a day without eye strain, and it’s a gem. Everything is clear. I can focus directly on work and be more productive with no visual fatigue or headaches. I highly recommend it. You do need a well-lit space, though. I have a unique lamp above the monitor, and it looks perfect. Speed isn’t an issue since I mainly use it for reading, coding, and document analysis.
The image on the monitor is dull because the night light is enabled in the connected laptop settings. This is evident at 6:27 and 7:13 in the video. The laptop screen is yellowish.
It looks like an old LCD with a failing CFL backlight stuck in 256-color mode that was left out in the cold. Maybe you could use it in a weather-resistant kiosk or something. Feels more like a tech demo in its current form than a viable product.
@@BrianHallmond The vast majority of people have 0 issues with any displays, hell half the people have their phones on max, tvs on max and many ips monitors sitting at 300nits in the dark. This is cool tech but very very niche.
I'm so confused. How is the mode indicator always so bright? It's also bright when refreshing, which I guess means it's that way when all the pixels are "off". Why can't it offer that contrast as its own mode?
It’s definitely promising to see the improvements in monitors recently. It seems as if the holy grail of fast refreshing, colour e-ink monitors isn’t that far away.
Refresh rate is definitely amazing, but even as a fan of Kaleido 3 I'd have to agree it's not really market ready. It would be interesting to see what Onyx Boox could do with a Kaleido 3 in a monitor.
I think the main problem with this current iteration of the technology is that you can see better contrast ratios in 80's pagers. However, if it had a high quality anti-glare filter pre-applied to it and still had sufficiently low power draw even while actively playing video, i could see there being demand for it as a drop-in screen replacement in the Framework-laptop ecosystem.
does this suppose to reduce or give a higher eye strain? 😆 anyway, the refresh rate is really looking good as an e-ink device. hoping to see their next gen releases with this tech.
there's a Reddit post, and a lot of people are commenting, that you had night mode on for the entire video, which is why it looks so bad can we get clarity on this? does this review need to be corrected or redone?
My Gameboy Advance SP has an frontlightable LCD (without backlight) with way better colors than this. And what is the reason for an eInk Monitor, when you use a backlight, like on your normal display?
This doesn't use a backlight. It uses a glow light EPaper does not use backlight And there are no parallels between an old game Boy from the '90s and this
@ Ahhh, ok frontlight, Colored eInk still has a way to go. And I talked from an gameboy from the 2000 with color display, which workes without aditional backlight, so its a good to compare. :)
@NiSE_Rafter Of course, blue light is one of the factors, but even the e-readers have backlight nowadays. Regarding the refresh rates, check below information, it could shed some light/ views: "Screen Refresh Rate and Flicker: Traditional LCD and OLED screens refresh the image many times per second, usually around 60 to 120 times (60Hz - 120Hz). Lower refresh rates or screens that use Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) to control brightness can cause a subtle flicker. This flicker might not be visible, but it can cause eye strain for sensitive users, especially during prolonged viewing sessions."
@@goodereader I mean I respect that you guys sell most of the products you review and that you have a relationship with these guys but this looks straight up terrible. While I'd pay more than $8 for the novelty of owning one, you couldn't pay me $1600 to replace my existing screens with this for a year. Hyperbole aside, you should not be defending this monitor as your video makes it look like a piece of junk. Maybe your video doesn't do it justice and it looks better in person, but if so, that's on you guys.

I am also the happy owner of Dasung Color Curved. I second your words. This monitor allows you to work even at night without harming your eyes.
Something is not right. It can't be that bad

E-ink is always exciting

@@PixogenPixels They dont have issues? No one has issues. It's subtle and things happen over time.
@@PixogenPixels It's ok, be ignorant. No one gets strained eyes looking at phone or pc screens hey. :)
This why I never buy a Kaleido product. I will stick with Grayscale until Gallery 4 arrives.

It was also pretty bright when full refreshing at around 9:00.

Good review. :) Monitor isn't perfect but at least there are new things coming out in the eink space. Gra[hic mode looks pretty good.
This is great development. Also Dasung offers black and white version with same speed! Would be interested to see that one.
Damn, this looks AWFUL.
that's how it prevents your eyesight from becoming awful
@@maqsabreI very much doubt it with this picture quality
Speaking about speed, it is reaally good. So responsive, definitively better than the Bigme B251!!!

It seems the frontlight is better than the Bigme B251 I have. Kaleido is dark, but Dasung seems to add more lights
Picturequality is even for eink horrendous

I wonder whether the monitor can save/memory a few settings for quick switch. Otherwise it will be too troublesome for daily use.
May be good for a eink-board for a classroom if can work with stylus, but sure that will cost a lot.
Long way to go. This is basically the worse of both worlds.

I believe video mode is made for cartoon and education type of videos!
Reminds me of video CDs (VCD) of old.

I thought high refresh rates were bad for the eyes-the same reason why LCD/OLED screens cause eye strain.
The standard claim is blue light not refresh rates. If anything higher refresh rates is better since movement is more clear.
@NiSE_Rafter Of course, blue light is one of the factors, but even the e-readers have backlight nowadays. Regarding the refresh rates, check below information, it could shed some light/ views:

Why do you claim it costs $800 as it costs $2,000.00 on the site?
horrible display. really. if you arent afraid of ghost images, go for a qd oled instead.
So which is better, Dasung or Bigme?
Better is subjective
Are you kidding me? 23"?
I guess a blind man would be pleased to see it but... really?
can i install microsoft office? word or excel? because i am student
? It's a monitor. What you can install depends on the computer you connect it to.
