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.
BUYER BEWARE. The touchpad is placed very far to the left of center and is VERY uncomfortable. I have also had too many times where the cursor scrolls over something and either opens or closes the page. I have adjusted the settings without any help. Very annoying when something you are working on closes or a website closes and you need to try to go back and figure out where you were. I have had this over 6 months and plan on looking for another brand during the after xmas sales. Too bad as this is my 3rd Lenovo laptop… Read more »
If your work is important, turn on the radio mouse and don’t bother with touchpads. especially in the initial series of laptops, where all the components are entry-level. I basically don’t use them, except for rare cases when I find myself somewhere with a laptop without a radio mouse.
It’s much worse that there is no RJ45 here; it’s simply impossible to get a stable and fast network without buying an external usb2lan adapter (with which there are often various problems, unlike built-in rj45). And this is especially strange for a business/office series. And in reality, bringing this port outside costs a penny – +$5. The second significant problem is the poor video ports. Lenovo claims Display Port v1.2 Alt Mode in usb-c is outdated 15 years ago and HDMI 1.4b is 13 years outdated. You will not be able to display HDR images on TV/projectors/monitors from this laptop… Read more »
The third, possible problem – in the review checked the screen panel from BOE, but Lenovo often imstall Innolux n160jce-ell in this series, which may have low-frequency PWM. And Lenovo does not indicate Flicker Free panels for this series in psref, as for other series. Therefore, you need to be careful with this, especially when buying a model without Windows, because if there is no OS included, you can check the flickering only by booting from a WinPE flash drive with pre-integrated video drivers for this series or from some Linux distribution that understands the SoC of this series and… Read more »
