As we already saw, the F19 has a conventional 5:4 aspect ratio, 1280 x 1024 resolution, 8ms response time, 500:1 image contrast ratio, and a brightness of 400 cd/m2. For more specifications please refer to the sheet below.
To test the performance of the monitor, we first sat with Displaymate and used its inbuilt test to optimize the monitor. This was done to bring the monitor to output at the best image it's capable of.

Conclusion
The Ferrari F19 is a good product with decent styling and good performance. But when you consider that you'll be paying an astonishing Rs. 24,000 for it, a toned-down brightness level and better color scheme would have helped make the product better value for money.
We recommend this product only if you are a Ferrari fan … and got the money to burn.
