Splendid
Optimize the color of your screen with Gamma and fine-tuning the color temperature. By default, ASUS Splendid panels are set up to show the most accurate colors possible for the best viewing experience. However, sometimes users might want to make adjustments to color. For this reason, we've included three additional modes beyond Normal mode: Vivid mode, Eye Care mode, and Manual mode.
Note: If your device is connected to an external display and the multiple displays set as 'Show desktop only on 2', or, 'Clone mode', ASUS Splendid is automatically disabled to avoid any problems or conflicts.
Splendid options
- Normal: Through Gamma and Color temperature correction, the image output from the panel is as close as possible as what your eye can naturally see.
- Vivid: Adjusts the saturation of the image making it more vivid and vibrant.
- Manual: You can easily adjust the color temperature value to your personal needs, ranging from -50 to +50.
- Eye Care: Eye Care mode reduces blue light emission by up to 30% helping protect your eyes. (Blue light reduction varies based on your LCD panel)
Color Gamut *The features supported will vary by model.
The display's color gamut can be quickly and easily switched for different tasks or preferences. On top of the ultravivid native color setting, choose sRGB for creating web content or browsing, DCI-P3 for cinema content, or Display P3 for movie-grade colors finessed to fit everyday viewing in the real world.
If your laptop has ScreenPad or ScreenPad Plus, the option for Splendid is shown as below.
