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.

Microsoft Surface Book 3 (15.0") in-depth review

One of the most intriguing devices on the market is truly the Microsoft Surface Book 3. No matter if you're going for the 13.5-inch or the 15-inch model, the ability to pop the display and do some quick work on the go is outstanding. Furthermore, it is groundbreaking that the CPU is located in the "tablet", while the GPU resides inside the base.With that said, the Surface Book 3 (15) is a small powerhouse that holds a Core i7-1065G7 (yes, a ULV processor), and a GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q. We're very interested to see if this processor is going to bottleneck such a potentially powerful graphics ca[...]

Pros

  • Beautiful screen with 92% of sRGB coverage and accurate colors (when our Gaming and Web design profile is present) (LP150QD112604)
  • Doesn't use aggressive PWM to adjust brightness (LP150QD112604)
  • Very high resolution and maximum brightness and a pro-friendly 3:2 aspect ratio (LP150QD112604)
  • 1080p Webcam
  • Magnesium build with a unique attachment that can hold the display turned in both sides
  • Windows Hello, Wi-Fi 6, and optional Surface Pen and Surface Dial
  • Modest but useful I/O with an SD card reader

Cons

  • Very hard to upgrade
  • The tablet has a very short battery life by itself
  • The GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q works at a lower TGP after a couple of minutes of load
