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.

ASUS VivoBook S14 S433 (M433) in-depth review

Well, well, well. What do we have here? A 14-inch VivoBook. It looks like the successor of the S14 S432 but interestingly - it lacks the ScreenPad 2.0 support. Have ASUS made it exclusive to the ZenBook series? Are they trying to keep the price down? We don't know. What we know, however, is that the new notebook comes with a new look, new processors, and a 1080p IPS display.While the processors of choice here are mere refreshes of the Whiskey Lake family, we found out that in some laptops, they offer better optimization, thus improving the battery life of the device. You will see shortly,[...]

  • Good battery life
  • Good contrast ratio and comfortable viewing angles (BOE NV140FHM-N49)
