Who is it not for?

For gaming, not recommended for serious gamers as the display lacks essential gaming features. Basic games may run acceptably, but expect compromises.

For office work, not well-suited for office work due to poor text clarity and eye strain issues. Short-term use might be tolerable, but productivity will suffer.

For creative work, not recommended for creative professionals as color reproduction is below industry standards. Hobby-level projects might be acceptable with calibration.
