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.

Acer Predator Helios Neo 14 (PHN14-51) in-depth review
We were quite impressed by the Nitro 14 (AN14-41) since it offers tons of power for a 14-incher. Now, it's time to test the more premium sibling of this machine which is called Acer Predator Helios Neo 14 (PHN14-51). This time around, the Helios version is powered by Intel Meteor Lake-H CPUs. These chips are efficient but they aren't as punchy as the Raptor Lake-H / HX CPUs which are a better complement to GPUs as fast as the GeForce RTX 4070 which is the most powerful graphics card for this Acer series. Still, considering the device's limited internal space, a 28W processor offers an optimal [...]
