    Buy our profiles for Samsung ATNA40CT02-0 (SDC41A0) / 14.0”, WUXGA (1920 x 1200), OLED

    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.

    ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED (UM3406) in-depth review

    What about a 28W AMD Zen 4 CPU fitted in a light 14-inch device? Yep, the Zenbook 14 OLED UM3406 has the powerful AMD Ryzen 7 8840HS under the bonnet alongside the Radeon 780M. The latter is pretty snappy for an iGPU and thanks to it, you can play CS2 on Medium details with around 152 FPS on average which is a respectable result for integrated graphics.Perhaps this laptop could look familiar to some of you. That's because it's the AMD version of the Team Blue Zenbook 14 OLED (UX3405) that we have already tested. This means a thin notebook with good input devices and limited upgradability b[...]
