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.

Lenovo IdeaPad 5 (14", 2020/2021) in-depth review

Well, the new Ideapad 5 (14) is here and its main thing this year is symmetry. When you look at it in an open position you see two speaker grills flanking the keyboard, which is placed right in the middle of the machine. Furthermore, the touchpad seems to be pretty centered too (although it is still left-biased).And what grabs our attention here is the price point. And moreover - what you get in terms of performance and versatility. Our particular device comes with the AMD Ryzen 4000U series processors. You can also pick an Ideapad 5 (14) with an Ice Lake CPU, but let's be honest, in 2020[...]

Pros

  • USB Type-C charging, SD card and M.2 PCIe x4 drive support
  • Reasonably comfortable keyboard with optional backlight
  • Lack of PWM (AUO B140HAN04.E)
  • Comfortable viewing angles and good contrast ratio (AUO B140HAN04.E)
  • Even the Ryzen 3 4300U provides a decent performance

Cons

  • Covers only 51% of sRGB (AUO B140HAN04.E)
  • Memory is soldered to the motherboard
