In short, without calibrating, the colours displayed might not be true and therefore make colour-sensitive jobs unnecessarily complicated. For instance, what you see as a true red in your digital creation might be displayed as more of a pink or orange on another person’s display – assuming their monitor shows accurate colours. Without a proper calibration, colours might be displayed in different hues on other displays.

However, if you need to execute colour-critical tasks, such as colour grading videos or editing images, you need to make sure that the monitor displays the colours correctly.
