I really wonder why it is that hard for a manufacturer to source a display that works under all viewing angles, implement that display in their entire product line, and stick with that display once and for all!!!
Cheap brands like Uni-T, Vichy, have some models where the display has an excellent viewing angle.
So it can definitely not be related to a cost issue, if the cheap brands can do it.
It's just a matter of being consistent. The cheap brands should start using that "good display" in their entire product line.
And the more expensive brands like Brymen, should do the same, under the motto, "whatever the cheap brands can, we can, and from now on we are going to be consistent once and for all, and no longer mess around with randomly selecting a display when designing a new multimeter, and after just hope the best for it, and say sorry if it has a bad viewing angle, and realize it's too late to change!"
I really hope Brymen is reading along in this thread. Uni-T and Vichy might read along as well

To Brymen, Uni-T, Vichy and all the other manufacturers of multimeters (including Fluke and the other big guys): get your act together on displays, and only take displays with excellent viewing angles

And no, this issue is not only a concern for display afficionados, to use Dave's words

It's a general concern, that affects all users! Viewing angles are so important for test gear!
