Just an update for you guys still in limbo about buying one of these.

The ANC man came to deliver the screen today (firmware upgrade done by Hazro to version 2.1 to fix branding reports and also dim the backlight for better luminance) and so I set about putting it back into action.

I can confirm the out of the box black point has been improved somewhat. It's now reporting 0.4cd/m2 before and after calibration. An excellent improvement in the 2.1 firmware!

I can confirm that the lack of RGB adjustment is not a major issue. The preset 6500k colour mode is actually 6800k which is not too bad but after calibration I've gotten it almost bang on 6500k with 1% deviation.

The luminance of the backlight has also been reduced somewhat from 400 odd cd/m2 to around 210-250 depending on how you like your brightness and contrast settings. Mine are at 50 and 25.

My before and after calibration results are below:

Report

What does it all mean? it means now the HZ24Wi has excellent blackpoint levels, VA panel standard without the colour shifting symptoms of non IPS panels. It also has a much more pleasing out of the box luminance so isn't eye burning right away.

Version 2.1 firmware means the HZ24Wi is now made of awesome and win, probably more awesome than win, YOU DECIDE!

    • From the incredibly asinine idea of disposable AI datacenter satellites launching into low Earth orbit to building out yet another unnecessary mobile network, this con-man will do ANYTHING to scam investor suckers and get his stock prices up. This stinks of panic to me. Good.
    • The "Drop" feature will also be retired 👇 https://x.com/i/status/2067838711870439583 . And here I explain a workaround to restore Edge's sidebar app list 👇 https://x.com/i/status/2065149359314829650 .
    • And they say Brits are better educated than Americans. Seriously, mate, the American Empire built the Industrial Revolution -- specifically via the transport and exploitation of oil. Not the UK. Whereas, the British Empire was built for centuries on the oceanic "spice trade" -- which "coincidentally" overlapped all of the places where Opium was grown, aka the world's only surgical grade anesthetic for ten thousand years. The British Empire was the first seagoing UPS (and even local dealer) of the Old World. For what it's worth, all mining, processing, manufacturing, and distribution are becoming robotic in the near future. And it will then make sense for everything to be manufactured (by robots) on the continent where those products will be sold. So, while no humans will be involved, manufacturing will become local again one day. PS Trump is a lying, fascist, ignorant, crooked, idiot **** who fearmongers the same racist, misogynist cowardly ###### used by charlatans, Nazis, and con-men going back tens of thousands of years. It's never been true.
