It should be noted that our unit may have been calibrated before being sent to us as the "before and after" numbers are almost the same.

(DeltaE 2000 measurements of 3 or less are considered acceptable for most professional color work.) Calibration raises these numbers a bit but balances the overall spectrum and flattens the gamma curve a bit (in the case of grayscale measurements). The average DeltaE 2000 is 3.17 for colors and 1.6 for grays, which are excellent. In spite of its bad backlight (which might be a flaw specific to our unit), color accuracy is superb out of the box. At less than 500:1, the display sits rock bottom in our comparison and is more akin to cheaper budget notebooks and netbooks than mid-range gaming laptops. Contrast is also very poor, especially for an IPS panel. Backlight bleed is particularly offensive the corners of the panel shine through in dark scenes. The upper right corner is significantly dimmer than the rest of the panel, but this is more subtle in real-world use and shouldn't be terribly distracting. Brightness distribution is incredibly uneven at 67%, and there is noticeable vertical banding when viewing a pure white screen. The biggest shortcoming of this display is the disappointing backlight. The display also doesn't support G-Sync, and there is some very slight screen tearing during gameplay (although only scrupulous gamers will notice this). Asus posits the panel as a 5 ms display, but our measurements show significantly slower than advertised response times. While the higher refresh rate promises smoother animations and gameplay, the rest of the display experience falls flat. Perhaps the most interesting facet of the GL703VM is the 120 Hz refresh rate of the AU Optronics screen.

#GE SMART TOUCH TIMER 25055 UPGRADE#
Since the GL703VM is an upgrade of a device we've previously reviewed, we will focus primarily on performance metrics and eschew discussion of the case and input devices. We will also compare the GTX 1070-powered Aorus X7 v7 to let readers see how much of an improvement the more powerful hardware brings. We will look at the MSI GS73VR, HP Omen 17, and Acer Aspire V17 Nitro, all of which are relatively thin 17.3-inch devices. There is no shortage of GTX 1060-equipped laptops and thus no shortage of comparative notebooks. We'll compare our review unit today against the previously-reviewed GL703VD. We will also look at similarly specced devices to give a broader picture of where our review device sits in the market. However, as our review will demonstrate, these options come at a cost while the GL703VM offers more power, it is also louder and hotter. While that machine performed admirably in our review, we lamented the lack of alternate GPU options and the absence of a high refresh rate display panel.Īsk and ye shall receive: today's review device offers both of these features in the same chassis and throws an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 and a 120 Hz screen into the mix.
Back in October, we reviewed Asus' ROG Strix GL703VD, a 17.3-inch thin-and-light gaming laptop from the venerable Taiwanese manufacturer.
