Terrible readability - impossible to calibrate for decent text

It is possible that I have a marriage and I am not a representative of the product as a whole. Anyway, the picture on the device is terrible. No matter how many times I calibrate color management and clear type, readability is terrible. I work in IT and although I work on applications I'm not new to hardware setup. I connected to Lenovo ThinkPad and Microsoft Surfacebook with no difference in quality. The maximum refresh rate is 60 Hz and I still experience flickering. When the screen is magnified 100-200%, all text is blurry but pixelated, making reading almost impossible and causing migraines. I like softer graphics but not at the expense of blurry text. All attempts to improve the clarity of the text display via the OS configuration and the display image settings were in vain. The touchscreen works well and the installation is plug and play. It's good to have a remote control and a full range of picture menu options as you'll need them to attempt calibration. It leaves me with the knowledge that I really tried everything before I gave up. This one returns.
