Discover the difference with professional display calibration and experience accurate colors in games and media the way they were intended! For photo and video editing tasks, display calibration is the critical first step for the accurate portrayal of colors in your content.

Hate backlight bleed? Despite the LCD panel manufacturer’s best efforts, backlight bleed on dark backgrounds around the panel edges remains a side effect of the technology, and most IPS/PLS/AHVA/TN and similar types of display panels will exhibit this phenomenon.

Choose this option to have our staff pick the top 20% of panels available for your model line that exhibit less backlight bleed. The panel we choose for you will exhibit less backlight bleed than 4 out of 5 panels of the same model line.

Warrant yourself against defective pixels! Our technicians will physically check for pixel defects and replace the display panel if even a single defect is found. If a defect appears within the chosen pixel warranty period, HIDevolution will replace your display panel!
