HP Pavilion x360 15 (15-cr0000) display profiles – Quality and Health impact results

The new HP Pavilion x360 15 (in-depth review) is one of the most popular laptops on the market. Its price is great, it covers all the essentials you may need and it’s 2-in-1 convertible which is handy in many situations.

So is there a catch? Yes, it turned out that it has many catches and one of them is the screen quality. HP used the AUO B156HAN02.2 (AUO22ED) panel which barely covers half of the sRGB color gamut – just 53% (CIE1976). The color deviations are literally off the charts (see below), even our Design & Gaming profile didn’t lower the average DeltaE below 4.0 (values below 1.0 are recommended for color-sensitive work).

However, if you don’t care for the color accuracy, there are some good news here – the display doesn’t use harmful PWM for controlling the brightness and the contrast ratio is good (1200:1) which makes the screen comfortable for your eyes. If you want to protect your body further, check out our Health-Guard profile.

Since our profiles are tailored for each individual display model, this article and its respective profile package are meant for the HP Pavilion x360 15 (15-cr0000) with a 15.6″ AUO B156HAN02.2 (AUO22ED) panel with Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution. You can check out all configurations here:

Office Work

Office Work moet vooral worden gebruikt door gebruikers die de meeste tijd besteden aan het bekijken van stukken tekst, tabellen of gewoon surfen. Dit profiel is gericht op het leveren van een betere helderheid en duidelijkheid door het behouden van een vlakke gammacurve (2.20), native kleurtemperatuur en perceptueel accurate kleuren.

Ontwerp en spel

Dit profiel is gericht op ontwerpers die beroepsmatig met kleuren werken, en ook voor games en films. Design and Gaming brengt beeldschermen tot het uiterste en maakt ze zo nauwkeurig mogelijk in de sRGB IEC61966-2-1 standaard voor Web en HDTV, bij witpunt D65.

Health-Guard

Health-Guard elimineert de schadelijke Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) en vermindert het negatieve Blauwe Licht dat onze ogen en ons lichaam aantast. Omdat het op maat is gemaakt voor elk paneel, slaagt het erin de kleuren perceptueel nauwkeurig te houden. Health-Guard simuleert papier zodat de druk op de ogen sterk wordt verminderd.

It also regulates the first steps out of black so you can have even faster reflexes when playing in dark virtual environments… or just see everything in the darkest scenes in movies.

As for the Health-Guard profile, it reduces the blue light impact and eliminates PWM.
