OLED display panels, with the advantages of thinness, lightweight, high resolution, and energy-saving, it is widely used in home TV displays as well as mobile devices, such as smartphones and laptop computers. As early as 2019, GIGABYTE, the leading brand of personal computers, had already launched the AERO 15 OLED creator laptop which was the first equipped with an OLED display. Its outstanding display performance has amazed the press around the world and won the Taiwan Excellence Award and the Red Dot Product Design Award. Why do images look more vibrant and vivid on AERO 15 OLED? We will explore the things that you did not know before about GIGABYTE OLED laptop.

The color gamut refers to the range of visible colors on a display device. The broader the range, the richer the colors can be displayed by the screen. As different types of panels were released in the past years, based on the traditional 2D color gamut but added the element of “brightness” as its Z-axis, the concept of 3D gamut has been introduced: the color volume, as the number of colors that can be presented by the output device with the corresponding brightness. Taking the DCI-P3 color space that was established by the American film industry as the benchmark, the traditional LCD panels can display about 74% of the DCI-P3 color space; however, the color rendering effect in different brightness is weakened due to the design of the indirect rendering effect via the guide light plate. On the other hand, the OLED panels cover 100% of the DCI-P3 color space. Also, as each of the pixels can emit light by itself, the colors would not be affected by the brightness. Taking the color volume as the standard, it can indeed display richer colors, about 120% DCI-P3. Therefore, compared to the traditional LCD, the same picture looks richer and more vibrant on the AERO 15 OLED.

Compared to the brightness of 250 ~ 300 nits on traditional LCDs, OLED is equipped with higher brightness of about 500 nits. Additionally, each of the pixels can emit light by itself instead of displaying through the light guide panel. This allows it to achieve True Black and hence provides an extremely high contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1, with which a normal LCD of 1,000:1 cannot be matched. The high degree of contrast on OLED screen can offer the users a "brighter" visual sensation under the same brightness and solve the "greyish-ness" on LCD. As the OLED can achieve the same performance as the LCD even in lower brightness, the actual brightness is lower and saves more power, thus the overall battery life is more advantageous than models equipped with traditional LCDs.

Sometimes, the problem of “burn-in” comes along with high brightness, which is why many of the consumers are tempted by the OLED laptops but cannot make their decision. Such an issue indeed appeared in early models of OLED mobile phones, as the colors of the screen are deteriorated or deviated after it has been used for a long time, when fixing on the same screen with a high degree of brightness. However, in recent years, the OLED technology has made significant progress and is widely used on mobile phones and laptops that show fewer burn-in problems. In GIGABYTE laptops with selected high-quality OLED displays, the design of heat dissipation is being taken under special care, while all components are strictly tested. If you have encountered any problems when using it, we welcome you to contact your local service center for examination. GIGABYTE will provide you the best product service.

AERO 15 OLED screen emits less harmful blue light, 70% less compared to the traditional LCDs. With the Rheinland's Eye Comfort Certification, it offers users a more comfortable experience. Besides, user can further reduce the harmful blue light with just a few Window’s settings.

1. In Window's personalization settings, change "Color" to "Dark".

2. In the Office settings, change the “Office Theme” to “black” in “Account”.

In addition to the advantages such as high resolution, wide gamut, high brightness, high contrast ratio, and low harmful blue-light, AERO 15 OLED’s panel undergo through the Xrite Pantone calibration programming before shipment, ensuring a color accuracy of Delta E < 1.
