Display Response Times

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
28 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 7 ms rise
↘ 21 ms fall
The screen shows relatively slow response rates in our tests and may be too slow for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 68 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (21 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
51 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 20 ms rise
↘ 31 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. » 86 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (32.9 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

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 8774 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured.

In review: Acer Swift 5. Test model courtesy of Acer Germany.

成功的组合:宏碁将纤薄的机身和足够的性能结合起来,同时也没有忘记重要的散热。我们喜欢纤薄的外壳设计,特别是超窄边框。这还不是全部:宏碁加入了坚固的金属元素并用出色的制造工艺使我们满意,只有键盘模块不是那么好。键程相对偏短,但我们对它稳定的压力触发点及打字时的低噪音感到满意。镜面IPS屏幕有着全高清的分辨率,并在亮度及对比度测试中表现出色。Swift 5的硬件配置是十分平衡的,处理器在负载下基本上能够发挥出其最大的性能,这在它的竞争对手上是不多见的。考虑到它的性能表现,它的温度表现就还是可以的了。对于轻薄本来说最后的重点是续航时间,虽然Swift 5的续航能力不如戴尔XPS13,但依旧可以满足一天的不插电使用。

宏碁的新Swift 5结合了轻薄本几乎所有的重要元素,而且售价实际上仅在900欧元(约合947美元)的入门价位。

如果经常在路上的话应该看看戴尔 XPS 13 9360。它的雾面屏及超长续航时间令我们满意,而且它更加轻薄。来自华硕的竞品售价为1500欧元(约合1610美元)。
