I would like to share some positive around my 11th gen framework
It is about the display, which I had a closer look on. As I regularly do some photo editing and publishing, I always have an eye on color accuracy. For this I regularly use a decent external monitor, but sometimes I want to be able to do some work off my desk. That’s why I use my proven Spyder 5 colorimeter to investigate a little. The ambition was not to fine tune the display to all possible situations, but to have one generic calibration that serves 99% of all possible use cases. In words, adjust for the universal standard of Gamma=2.2 and whitepoint of 6500K.
Long story short, the built in display has a great ability to cover the sRGB color space with very close to 100%, but needs some minor tweak to become linear.
Thank you so much. I was disappointed with the screen on the AMD 13 laptop I got today, and this color profile resolved it.
Framework, please look into display calibration. Not all users may care, but there is a ton of light grey on light grey content in the web/windows that looked horrid out of the box at various brightness settings. Out of the box and after driver bundles/firmware updates it was the same.
Thanks for this. I tried the notebookcheck profile, which I found pretty bad tbh, but the ICC file from @Uwe really improves my display - particularly for skintone etc.
I’d like to second this request. As a Windows user, one of the first things I do when I get a new monitor or laptop is to run a gamma utility to calibrate the display. However, Fedora doesn’t seem to come with such a utility, and there are only two available in the Fedora Software repository. One requires a peripheral device to be plugged in, and the other is rated only two stars.
I tried the ICC profile offered here, on a batch-3 Framework 13-AMD 2024. My first impression is that it is better - because less harsh (less blue light?) - than the NotebookCheck profile.
I continue to find though that for some reason my Framework’s display is harder on my eyes than my other screens. (Those other screens: a big Dell monitor with a 60Hz refresh rate; an old ThinkPad IPS screen with, again, a 60Hz refresh rate.)
