This time around there are no TN displays which is great news. The only panel model here has a 1080p resolution but since it's an IPS variant we think it's fine for such a device.

    Step 1: Accessing the Internal ComponentsPower off the HP 470 G10 and place it on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches or damage. Remove the four Phillips-head screws visible on the bottom of the laptop. Peel off the two rubber feet to reveal six additional hidden screws and remove them. Flip the laptop to its normal position and start prying the front edge with a thin plastic tool, then proceed to work your way around the sides and finally the backside. Once all sides are loose, lift the panel away from the chassis to expose the internals.Hint: Proceed with c[...]

    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.
