Cooler Master claimed this display would hit 95% of DCI-P3 and bam! It hit that right on the nose, and this is very good indeed, an far beyond the range of sRGB, giving you significantly richer reds, blues and greens, less colour banding, and significantly better HDR colour performance in supported content.
The gamma is right on too, with the expected dip coming from the mini-LED local dimming, but this can be tightened up by turning it off… don’t do that though, in real-world usage, leaving it on nets a better user experience.
The grey ramp is tight enough in standard mode but can be fine-tuned smoother in sRGB mode at the cost of the richer DCI-P3 colour space, but sRGB is better if you plan to only play or watch SDR content.
Colour accuracy is superb, with just the greys throwing out the figures a little, likely due to the sensor landing between zones for the local dimming. However, to my eyes, the blacks and greys looked very uniform and I suspect our calibration tool struggles with the backlight tech used here, as the actual colours are all extremely accurate. For example, less than 5 is good, less than 3 is excellent, and most of these are closer to 1 Delta-E which is exceptional.
Even after a full calibration, there was little improvement, and actually, I thought it looked better at the stock settings, but that’s subjective with such small differences.
Overall, a 4.5 out of 5 is very high indeed, with strong scores in all but tone response, which is again a byproduct of the local dimming and actually much better in real-world usage.
