If you wanted features such as a high-performance waveform monitor and lookup tables, it was an expensive device that chewed through batteries and made a loud whirring sound. A 1000:1 contrast ratio and 500-nit brightness is claimed, although, in use, it looks like any decent cellphone display and is reasonably visible, at least in bright overcast conditions. The monitor takes the video feed directly through a full-sized HDMI port on the side which is impressive because the device is only a touch larger than a standard mobile phone.
