Title: HP ProBook 445 G7: A darker display in exchange for better battery life
Post by: Redaktion on July 30, 2020, 08:24:26
More experienced users can do a lot to influence battery life for the better, but less experienced users may not know how to adjust default manufacturer or driver settings.

Notebook check, you are becoming a bit of AMD fanboy. A publication that respects itself doesn't do that.
That "huge" battery life isn't huge at all. 8th gen CPUs achieved that in many cases even more. Huge battery life is 15 hours.

With a little googling, Vari bright can be disabled. So, can it be disabled in this model and if yes, what is the brightness in that case while on battery?

How so? Do you realize that ProBook is a business laptop model line for big offices etc but 192Hz PWM below 90% coupled with single-channel ram eliminate its chances for bulk purchase?

Does anybody know how to get a clean white color on the display? It looks like having a little yellow in the desktop, even when on power supply.

Also good to know how to increase brightness to the maximum. I installed the graphics drivers for AMD Ryzen 7 but still no option found to increase brightness.

Can anyone help please?

You have do download the App AMD Readon Software. You go to settings -display/screen and then you can disable the function Vari Bright :).
