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.

Acer Swift 3 (SF313-52 / SF313-52G) in-depth review

In this year's CES, Acer unveiled some very interesting Swift 3 notebooks. One of them is the 13.5" Swift 3 (SF313-52). Indeed, this is not a very popular screen size to see, as most of the 13-inch laptops have 13.3" panels. However, this notebook is fitted with a 3:2 aspect ratio display. This should be more interesting for people who browse pages and work with vertical scrolling content more than watching movies, or any 16:9 content to begin with.On the hardware side, Acer gave this laptop the latest and greatest Intel has to offer in the ULV world. Yes, we are talking about the 10nm Ic[...]
