日本HP Pavilion 15 (15-cs2000) has a surprisingly good display
The HP Pavilion 15 (15-cs2000) is a stylish laptop that can be configured with Intel Whiskey Lake and AMD Zen+ CPUs. You can also pick it with a dedicated GPU like the NVIDIA GeForce MX250. The design of this notebook is modern and between the thin bezels is fitted a great IPS panel – Innolux N156HCE-EN1 (CMN15E8). This is an optional display but we can highly recommend it and we will explain why we like it so much in the next sentences.
This is a 15″ display with a Full HD resolution and 16:9 aspect ratio. That means a pixel density of 142 ppi, and a pitch of 0.18 х 0.18 mm. The screen has very good viewing angles (with almost no visible color shift if you’re laid back on your chair while using the laptop) and more than a decent contrast ratio of 1230:1 (1120:1 after profiling). The sRGB color coverage is a rich one – 94% – providing pleasant and vivid colors. No matter what you’re doing in front of the display, you can enjoy good color reproduction while browsing the Web or watching some movies.
The maximum measured brightness is good – 343 nits (cd/m2) in the middle of the screen and 308 nits (cd/m2) average across the surface with a maximum deviation of 17%.
Check out our HP Pavilion (15-cs2000) review.
The real deal is the color accuracy of the panel. Even without calibration, the CMN15E8 is able to show an average dE value of 2.9 which isn’t bad at all – most panels can’t touch this result even after calibration. We consider everything above 4.0 as a mediocre result. Things are getting interesting after we have applied our Design & Gaming profile because after that the panel can show some really accurate colors with an average dE of 0.7. Yes, this is among the best results so far.
If you value color accuracy, this panel will surely suit you well. Its standard matching color representation is perfect for design work, as well as online retail, like buying paint or Web page themes.

A quick summarize – Innolux N156HCE-EN1 (CMN15E8) is a superb panel. Yes, this is an optional display but you can count it as “money well spent” because the other two display variants are TN ones – believe us, you’re not going to like them. This one covers 94% of the sRGB gamut, it has a very good contrast ratio, comfortable viewing angles, and great average dE value after applying our Design & Gaming profile – 0.7. All of this means a punchy image, as well as an accurate representation of colors – something designers, photographers, and other professionals highly value.

Naast het ontvangen van efficiënte en gezondheidsvriendelijke profielen, steunt u door het kopen van LaptopMedia's producten ook de ontwikkeling van onze laboratoria, waar wij apparaten testen om de meest objectieve beoordelingen mogelijk te maken.
Office Work
Office Work moet vooral worden gebruikt door gebruikers die de meeste tijd besteden aan het bekijken van stukken tekst, tabellen of gewoon surfen. Dit profiel is gericht op het leveren van een betere helderheid en duidelijkheid door het behouden van een vlakke gammacurve (2.20), native kleurtemperatuur en perceptueel accurate kleuren.
Ontwerp en spel
Dit profiel is gericht op ontwerpers die beroepsmatig met kleuren werken, en ook voor games en films. Design and Gaming brengt beeldschermen tot het uiterste en maakt ze zo nauwkeurig mogelijk in de sRGB IEC61966-2-1 standaard voor Web en HDTV, bij witpunt D65.
Health-Guard
Health-Guard elimineert de schadelijke Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) en vermindert het negatieve Blauwe Licht dat onze ogen en ons lichaam aantast. Omdat het op maat is gemaakt voor elk paneel, slaagt het erin de kleuren perceptueel nauwkeurig te houden. Health-Guard simuleert papier zodat de druk op de ogen sterk wordt verminderd.
