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.

Yes, it is exactly as it sounds like - Dell was losing the gaming computers segment, despite owning the Alienware brand.And finally, the Texan company decided to use its knowledge to improve its own gaming machines. Although the end result was significantly better than what it has previously offered, the laptops were a bit too heavy.Now, you will see the same design, but filled with the latest technology from both Intel and AMD in the form of the G15 552[...]
