It is not easy photographing a monitor
performance cannot be questioned
the preview does not accurately represent how the final print will look

huge cheap TV and home price
it lacks true HDR support and color coverage is limited in a professional video production
Adobe RGB brought out the reds
which made skin tones look horrible
panels are undoubtedly left in the past

The portraits in the Adobe RGB mode were too orange and brought out more skin redness
