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.

If you travel a lot and need a light but powerful machine with a good display and a long battery life, your options are a bit limited. Still, the MSI Prestige 14 AI Studio C1U could get your attention since it's offered with 28W Meteor Lake chips and a 45W dGPU (option). The memory isn't soldered and you get two SODIMMs for future RAM expansion alongside a big battery that can be paired with Intel Evo certification for even longer autonomous life. You don't get a whole plethora of ports, but the available connectors are modern, with DisplayPort and charging capabilities.The base display is[...]
