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 330S (15″) in-depth review

However, it has a certain downside - it's bulky and it looks freaking old. Fear not, IdeaPad fans, because today we have a laptop just for you - an AMD equipped Lenovo IdeaPad 330s with an IPS panel for a pretty tiny price.Of course, it has an Intel version, if you are a fan of the blue company and it can be equipped with up to a GTX 1050. However, let's focus on what we have in our office today. Th[...]
Pros
- Adequately priced
- IPS option available, despite the very low price
- The screen doesn't use PWM for brightness adjustment (AUO B156HAN02.1)
- Aluminum lid cover
Cons
- Absurd battery life
- Wobbly keyboard
- Just 53% coverage of sRGB (AUO B156HAN02.1)
