Hands & Eyes on the SmallHD Vision 17

Introducing: the SmallHD Vision 17!

It's the most anticipated monitor launch of 2022, and I've finally got to put one through its paces. SmallHD sent me this display as a beta tester, to put it through its paces in a grading suite to ensure that it's flawless at launch. And what can I say - I'm really impressed with what this little screen can do!

HDR NOTE: This video showcases the HDR capabilities of the Vision 17. Images on the screen are captured in HDR with a camera, and not added digitally, and so far exceed the capabilities of SDR screens. I STRONGLY recommend watching this on an HDR capable screen, TV, or device to get the best impressions of this display!

1 - Requires the latest version of all supported browsers. Playback support may be limited by the capabilities of the playback device, though the video stream matches streaming standards available on most desktop, smartphone, and tablet devices manufactured within the last eight years. 2 - Requires the latest version of all supported browsers. Playback support may be limited by capabilities of the device and the screen used. Tested using streaming standards available on most devices within the last 3-5 years. Automatic quality switching may trigger a slight pause in playback in some browsers or on some devices. Some methods of casting using WebVideoCaster, DLNA, Chromecast or AirPlay may cause reduced playback quality & compression artifacting on a Roku or AppleTV device. Using the WebVideoCaster app enables full quality access to HDR streams, but at reduced player functionality. 3 - Requires a television capable of HDR playback using broadcast title streams (m2ts) served using HTTP Live Streaming. May not work on all HDRTVs or all devices. 4 - Most televisions cap SDR brightness at 400 nits peak; AndroidTV and FireTV quality selections default to a 400 nits peak gamma mapping for this reason. Subtitles & chapter selection may not be available on all device platforms.
