    HP Pavilion Gaming 17 in-depth review

This laptop may be considered as a budget Omen iteration as it trims down some of the goodies, like aluminum base and bulky cooling, RGB and big-fat RTX GPUs.In fact, the HP Pavilion Gaming 17 2019 maxes out with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q.

    Disassembly, maintenance and upgrade options

    This laptop's predecessor has made a reputation of having a hard time cooling its components down. However, as we found out, this is definitely not the case with the HP Pavilion Gaming 17 2019. Not only it works a lot cooler, but it works a lot quieter as well. Let's see what kind of black magic has been performed by HP and how it affects the device in general.Check out all HP Pavilion Gaming 17 2019 prices and configurations in our Specs System or read more in our In-depth Review.1.

    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.
