For anyone who is not a graphic design type, color reproduction is primarily an enjoyment thing.

Like high quality headphones. It is in no way whatsoever required, but some feel it enhances their enjoyment.

That said, if a terminal constitutes most of your usage, there is honestly little point in getting an IPS display. It just doesn't matter whether or not the blacks are really perfect black, when you're reading text on a white background.



I have two 28" TN monitors, and I find them much more comfortable with light gray text on deep gray backgrounds than with dark text on a white background.


I personally prefer light grey on almost-black backgrounds, black-on-white is just the most common.
