In addition to receiving efficient and health-friendly profiles, by buying LaptopMedia's products you also support the development of our labs, where we test devices in order to produce the most objective reviews possible.
Office Work
Office Work should be used mostly by users who spend most of the time looking at pieces of text, tables or just surfing. This profile aims to deliver better distinctness and clarity by keeping a flat gamma curve (2.20), native color temperature and perceptually accurate colors.
Design and Gaming
This profile is aimed at designers who work with colors professionally, and for games and movies as well. Design and Gaming takes display panels to their limits, making them as accurate as possible in the sRGB IEC61966-2-1 standard for Web and HDTV, at white point D65.
Health-Guard
Health-Guard eliminates the harmful Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) and reduces the negative Blue Light which affects our eyes and body. Since it’s custom tailored for every panel, it manages to keep the colors perceptually accurate. Health-Guard simulates paper so the pressure on the eyes is greatly reduced.

Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5i (14", Gen 8) in-depth review
The IdeaPad devices are a step-down compared to Legion siblings but in most cases, their price / performance ratio is good. The Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5i (14, Gen 8) is an interesting machine. The manufacturer is marketing its creation as a multipurpose device that can be used for work, creative projects, or gaming.That's why Lenovo has chosen the 6GB version of the RTX 3050 instead of the good "old" 4GB variant because, for content creation, a bigger VRAM is always a welcomed extra. Still, this GPU isn't the best one for such a purpose, but if your budget is tight, why not? On the other hand,[...]
