Buy our profiles for CHI MEI CMN14C0 / 14.0”, Full HD (1920 x 1080), TN

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.

Pros

  • Good build quality
  • Great input devices
  • The display has high brightness and decent sRGB coverage for a TN panel
  • Outstanding battery life
  • Plenty of I/O, including 4GB LTE connectivity

Cons

  • Display with limited viewing angles, extremely low contrast and inaccurate color reproduction (our profiles take care of the latter)
  • Aggressive PWM (200 Hz) (our Health-Guard profile fixes that)
  • A bit hefty for a 14-incher
  • Pricier than the competition
  • The M.2 SSD obstructs the insertion of a 2.5-inch HDD/SSD and vice versa
