I can identify three lacks in the current implementation, that as shipped with the device:
- the Monitor software only uses A2 mode (of course A2 with dithering), but Normal mode would be really, really welcome, and there is no use to do without it. It is like in all other situations: A2 is good in case of large moving parts on the screen, normal is good to properly eye details on the screen. The ability to switch to Normal mode should be added.
- The dithering is dynamic: a static screen continuously changes its dots, because a grey bar is rendered with always differently placed dots. It's like a bee swarm. This is why it consumes battery! It does, but there is no need to do it! This must be just an intermediate implementation. If a bar in frame 0 is rendered as "1 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0...", that dithering should remain identical in frame 1, frame 2, frame 3 etc. until that bar is modified on the screen (translated, scaled etc.). "Static screen" should imply "identical rendering".
This also gives the effect of a pulsating screen.
- it would be useful, although not strictly necessary, to have a software contrast enhancer in the Monitor application itsefl. Of course, similar settings are also available in the desktop OS, so it's not really needed.
I agree with this. In my professional context : no Wifi, bluthooth or USB connexion for a private device ... The SD-Card was a solution but no SD-Card with the MAX2

So, the HDMI port could be the unique solution to READ the professional documentations, but I would read them with the better quality, not with the A2 mode.
