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.

MSI Cyborg 14 (A13Ux / A13Vx) in-depth review
In the last few years, we've seen and tested many compact gaming laptops like the ASUS TUF Gaming A14 (FA401), HP OMEN Transcend 14, Nitro 14 (AN14-41), or the Predator Helios Neo 14 (PHN14-51). Most of which aren't cheap at all. The MSI Cyborg 14 A13V is on opposite sides of the barricade since it offers decent hardware and a capable screen at a lower cost. Of course, its price depends on your region and current sales / deals but yeah, you don't have to trade one of your kidneys to buy this notebook.It's powered by 45W Raptor Lake-H CPUs (based on the Alder Lake architecture). These aren'[...]
