Is there any website on the net that has accurate monitor specification? Especially a list of true 24-bit monitors would be welcome.
Any help? Please.
On a an off topic note, what was the worst LCD response time in a consumer products. Were there any passive matrix displays slower than 300 ms? What about the Game Boy and Game Gear?
Of what monitors? I'm not aware of anything that's conclusive for all monitors across all time, but finding out whether or not a panel is 10-bit, 8-bit, 6-bit, etc is usually a matter of simple web searching. AFAIK 6-bit panels are becoming less common these days, especially at the higher end of the price spectrum.
As far as awfully slow monitors, some of those little hand-held Tamogotchi-type kinds of devices could be dreadful even compared to Game Boy.
Actually I'm asking because most manifacturers are obfuscating this in their specs., stating "16.7 million colors" even for low-end TN panels.

Published specs are generally fabrications. 🤣 Also do note that 8-bit TN panels do exist (Samsung and LG make a number of them), and that TN is not a death-sentence for quality. Just like IPS doesn't guarantee quality (and yes I've seen TN monitors that look better than IPS monitors). But lots of more expensive (say $200+) monitors are going IPS simply because it's yet another component of buzzword compliance these days.
