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 ROG GL702ZC in-depth review

It's been a while since AMD released anything exciting for the notebook market so we are excited to see how their top-tier desktop-grade CPU performs in a standard gaming laptop and paired with the Radeon RX 580. We are also pretty curious how the normal-sized 17-inch chassis will handle all that horsepower and does the RX 580 stand a chance against the alternative GTX 1060 configurations.Why the GTX 1060 you ask? Well, since the ROG GL702ZC costs just about what a standard Intel Core i7 + GTX 1060 configuration would, we think this is exactly the GPU it should beat in this price range[...]

Pros

  • Nice keyboard for typing
  • Excellent IPS display
  • No PWM across all brightness levels
  • Extremely powerful desktop-grade CPU with amazing multi-core performance
  • The CPU can be replaced as it uses standard socket

Cons

  • Hefty and thick
  • Extremely loud cooling system and runs even when idle
  • The parts of the interior get a little bit too warm during heavy workload/gaming
  • Suboptimal choice of materials for the base
  • Bad touchpad design
  • No FreeSync option for the display
  • Most laptops at this price range have significantly more powerful GPUs
