it's unquestionably a good product
daylight readable displays were a thing in the early days of TFT panels, i at one point owned an alcatel phone, with the buttons, but it had a reasonable sized transflective display on it similar to some of the daylight computer ones
i believe you can find devices with this kind of display for military and industrial uses, it's literally the same as regular LCD panels except the reflector is different in that it bounces more light from outside back upwards through the tft array... the tradeoff is the contrast is less and the colours are more washed out but you also don't need to turn on illuminators to see them under external light
i personally minimise my blue light exposure in general, this house i am in has nasty nasty ones mounted on the ceilings and walls but i avoid using them, i have a 620nm red LED light strip in my kitchen for most of the time of dark and all my display panels are always in a low blue setting... reminds me tho, i feel like i should try migrating to a better OS than the one i've got, it was chosen because it supports my video card but at the same time i have all kinds of problems with games, with the OLED having display garbage after waking up after sleeping and none of them allow me to set a full minimal blue setting at night time
but i did also pick up on the creepy hippy vibes of their marketing and if they aren't dedicated to privacy then yeah, no wonder they abandoned nostr, people here are pretty fussy about that
