Display Response Times

ℹ

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

↔ Response Time Black to White
24 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 8 ms rise
24 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 16 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 50 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (20.9 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
42 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 18 ms rise
42 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 24 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 64 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (32.8 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.

Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8715 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured.

In review: Acer Swift 3. Test model courtesy of Acer Germany.

宏碁Swift 3是一台十分成功的亚笔记本电脑设备。它采用了精致的铝合金机身，在工艺上几乎无可挑剔。只有维护升级所需的拆机比较困难。它的输入设备出人意料的优秀，特别是触控版可以顺畅地识别多点触控手势。这让这台14寸设备十分适合办公用途。它的缺点主要在于屏幕，我们认为它的亮度略显不足。如果对比一下来自华硕的同类机型的话，它们都搭配了更明亮的屏幕面板。而我们很喜欢Swift 3的全方位性能。甚至是繁重的负载也无法难倒这台测试机。它的散热控制和噪音控制都属于合理的水平。只有电池续航相比竞争机型略显落后。

不算完美，但仍然出众：宏碁Swift 3是一台可以让人满意的办公和多媒体设备。

如果你可以投入更多预算的话，可以考虑一下戴尔 XPS 13。由于屏幕更为出色，电池续航更长以及图形性能更高，它是一台整体表现更好的设备。额外的Thunderbolt 3接口的高带宽PCIe支持也会为带来更大的扩展空间，略为弥补接口数量较少的不足。华硕ZenBook是个适合经常需要携带笔记本电脑出门用户的选择。除了更长的续航，它还提供了更明亮的屏幕。

刚刚提到的华硕ZenBook的优势在同样来自宏碁的Aspire S 13身上也不一而足，它们的售价也十分相近。
