"The all-new AORUS 15G not only comes with the world’s thinnest 3mm display bezel, it also comes with industry leading, ultra-high 240Hz refresh rate gaming display and 72%NTSC color gamut. All this means that gamers are now ready to enjoy every victory and with X-Rite Pantone Calibration each display is also custom tuned before it leaves the factory giving you unparalleled colour reproduction and accuracy this is gaming as the developer intended."


What is X-rite Pantone calibrated display?

I saw it on the AORUS 15G, a laptop that i've been looking to get for awhile now, and after some searching, I realize ALL laptops from gigabyte have them. Is it better quality screen or what? I thought I should just care about refresh rate and panel type like IPS?

Specs
i7-10875H
Intel Processor

16GB
DDR4 Memory

RTX 2080 SUPER MAX-Q
Nvidia Graphics

512GB
NVMe SSD

It means the colors have been calibrated, based on what, I dunno

Your photoshop edits will recreate accurate colors when printed

it just a plain colour calibration on the monitor, to make sure that the colour shown on monitor as accurate as possible. usually people achieve this by reduce colour intensity abit.

for people that didnt do colour critical work, no need to bother much. as for me i like my image as vibrant as possible without any colour value change, so i just leave to what native gamut that the screen can provide, except if the image looks very warm, then i will reduce the red colour intensity abit.
usually monitor that was made for srgb gamut hardly look warm

It's a brand

240Hz monitor dunno wat fk...
i using 144Hz monitor..
on max setting AAA games mau hit 100fps 1920x1080 also susah... usually hover 95fps... when boom boom here there fps dips to 60fps which is still smooth...

Xrite is juz their branding
other people juz call color calibration.. no need fancy names...

Calibrated screen = what you see is what you get 95% of the time

do you mean color wise ?

Monitor/screen rarely able to show actual/true color. There's two factor in play here, colour gamut and also colour accuracy.

72% NTSC color gamut means the display is able to show up to that extend of colours.


Cheapo display will have a narrow colour gamut, which means there's a limit of colours it can display. Take a look at the sRGB profile as compared to the bigger profile.


There's also colours that's indistinguishable for human's eyes.


For colour accuracy, right out of the factory, the displays are likely still showing inaccurate colour (unless it's factory/professionally tuned). For example, a photo of red apple may appear orangeish on your display and so, depending on it's colour profile, especially if you're on some cheapo old monitor.

Though there's tools out there to benchmark and tune the colour profile of your display so it will be more accurate and closer to the real colour it should display. Its mostly for professionals usage where colour accuracy is crucial for their works.

ah i see. So that means gigabyte notebooks have wide gamut and better color accuracy than most? because they also have an AERO series with full coverage of adobe srgb i think

After watching some reviews, the color differences between other laptops and the 15g is quite staggering

fancy manufacturer invented term

holy

So this notebook is definitely for me. It's rare to find a notebook with such wide color space. Thanks for the info bosskur

Erm, don't mistaken.

I didn't check what's the colour gamut or accuracy the laptop TS stated have.

I'm just explaining to TS what is colour gamut and accuracy and why it matter or not.

I'm still holding the doubt on the model's claim as high refresh rate display with good colour reproduction is definitely rare. I would have a check on the display panel used before pulling the trigger if I was you.
