    Lenovo ThinkBook 13s in-depth review

Well, there is no need for fantasizing anymore - Lenovo has finally made a sleek, astonishingly looking ThinkPad-inspired device, and has called it - the ThinkBook.So, honestly, there are not many devices that give you the vibe of the ThinkBook 13s. Despite it bearing the name... well, half of the name of a ThinkPad, it looks a lot more like a MacBook or something. It makes us very happy when we see manufacturers actually doing something new and interesting. So in terms of the hardware, it is incorporating Whiskey Lake CPUs and optionally - a Radeon 540X.You can check the prices and configurations in our Specs System: https://laptopmedia.com/series/lenovo-thinkbook-13s/ [...]

    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.
