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 Gaming 3 (15", 2021) in-depth review
In contrast to ASUS, which supercharged their TUF Gaming series, Lenovo is taking a bit of a laid-back approach towards its IdeaPad Gaming series. Of course, it is a budget-conscious offering, that is made for entry-level gamers. Due to NVIDIA's great efforts with its RTX 3000-series graphics cards, even people that don't have a big budget to spend on a laptop can enjoy playing AAA titles at high settings.For the frequent viewers of our site, this laptop might look familiar. You are absolutely right to think so because we have already paid a visit to the Intel version of the IdeaPad Gamin[...]
Pros
- Great price/performance ratio
- Great keyboard with an optional RGB backlight
- Two M.2 slots (or one M.2 + 2.5-inch SATA)
- 2.5-inch SATA drive mounting accessories inside the box
- No PWM (LEN156FHD (LEN9059))
Cons
- Lacks an SD card reader
- USB Type-C port is only used for data transfer
- Only 50% sRGB coverage (LEN156FHD (LEN9059))
- Battery discharges during gaming in Performance mode...
- ... which results in an excessive heat generated in the battery connector
