===== Display Color Profiles - X-Rite =====

Lenovo uses X-Rite (xrite) to manage color profiles. By default, your display might have a yellow-ish tint.

  * Download Lenovo X-Rite
    * [[https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/legion-series/legion-7-15imhg05/downloads/ds543953|Lenovo]]
    * [[https://cdn.laptopwiki.eu/public/utilities/xritecolorassistantsetup.exe|LaptopWiki CDN]]
  * After first launch X-Rite should ask you if you want to auto-download color profiles from Lenovo's site.
  * If you don't want to do it automatically, download those profiles from our CDN
    * [[https://cdn.laptopwiki.eu/public/displayprofiles/Lenovo/2021_Legion5Pro_Colorprofiles.zip|2021 Legion 5 Pro (MNG007DA1-1)]]
  * Unzip the archive
  * Copy contents of the archive to
<code>
 C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color

</code>

  * Now open X-Rite, you should have 4 color profiles. (Not Calibrated, Default, sRGB and Rec. 709)


==== Official XRite color profile download ====

If you want to download ICC profiles manually, replace the YYYY with your model and replace the XXXXXXXX with your serial number. \\

===== Why my display seems too dimmed for a 500nits desplay? =====
One of the things I was disappointed with initially was the display. It seemed a bit dim compared to other 500 nit displays. \\
If you are unhappy with yours, check:

  * Power settings. It can ‘bug’ if you go from battery saver to other performance modes, not allowing you to change brightness. This will require a reboot
  * X-Rite Color assistant. See which mode suits you
  * Windows colour profiles. Setting to TPL_1600_Default.ipm is my preference
  * If you want to turn off the logo light at the back of the display, press Fn + L

===== Adding a 60Hz display mode =====
On some units with a high refresh rate display, namely the 2021 Legion 5 non Pro, for some reason 60Hz display mode is missing. This can affect your battery life when not on a charger.\\
But there is a way to add it back.
  - Official guide available here [[https://www.monitortests.com/forum/Thread-Custom-Resolution-Utility-CRU]]
  - Install CRU (Custom Resolution Utility) [[https://www.monitortests.com/download/cru/cru-1.5.1.zip)]]
  - Create a new 60Hz Profile by useing “Add…” button in the detailed resolutions of the app, then restart for the changes to apply
  - Map a hotkey [[https://funk.eu/hrc/]]
  - From the 2 profile’s in HRU, set the 2nd one as 60hz using the drop down list near it, then set a hotkey for both. (not possible to set the same hotkey for both, or the fn key) \\
  - ctrl+1 for 120hz (which is my native, it will work with your 165hz too) and ctrl+2 for 60hz.
