The secrets behind the most alluring OLED laptops

AERO Creator Laptops have been winning more and more international awards since their release, including the Red Dot Award for Product Design, the Taiwan Excellence Award, and many others. Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA, has also been so impressed by the AERO series, that he used them as the next-gen notebook example to showcase the visions and innovations of his own company in numerous press conferences. What is the secret behind the screen that has been continuously gaining reputation from media worldwide? In terms of the display, the 4K UHD and color performance of the 15-inch OLED and 17-inch IPS LCD panels can reflect consistently high quality of GIGABYTE products, obtaining the VESA DisplayHDR 400 True Black ultra-high-contrast certification, providing more depth and realism on screen.

The panels are calibrated one by one in accordance with the X-rite™ Color Calibration before shipment, ensuring a strict standard of Delta E less than 1³. Plus the Pantone® Validated certification which verifies the ability of AERO’s display hardware configuration to accurately simulate the full range of Pantone Color System. This allows designers and manufacturers to work with accurate Pantone colors and enhance their work efficiency. Most of the creator laptops in the market have been chosen randomly to conduct Pantone® Validated certification only. The AERO series laptops took a step further and acquired the X-rite™ Calibration certificate. This will guarantee creators to gain access to all the perfect colors as soon as they turn on their AERO laptops.
