Acer Aspire E 15 laptop monitor dillema - help

stella2

Hi folks,

So, as I don't really understand laptops that much I am in a big dillema and I could use some help from you.

I recently bought the Acer Aspire E 15 laptop (E5-575G-52CZ) which in specs said it had a LED monitor but it turns out it's a TTF monitor. What I am confused about is whether LED includes TTF or not, because I am starting to doubt the store which sold the laptop.

Secondly, it runs on Win 10 and I cannot adjust the display because I can't adjust the contrast and the display is really to high contrasted for my eyes (I need to wear sunglasses while on the laptop). Oh, and the brightness level is the lowest, so I adjusted that.

 

What I am essentially worried about is that the display screen is not adjustable, and that it's useless if it's a TFT.. am I right?

Thanks

Hi,

TFT is a technology used in LCD screen manufacturing and the LED(Light Emitting Diode) is a backlight type, older laptop screens used  CCFL(Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) type lights but the modern screens use LED type.

As for the brightness, you can try using Windows Nightlight settings or Acer's Bluelight shield.

1. Go to start, expand Acer folder, click Acer Quick Access and switch on with slider button.

2.Go to Settings(Start and the wheel), Display and adjust the settings for Nightlight.

Don't use both at the same time, try each utility one by one and select the one you prefer.

Hi,

Sorry, Nightlight feature only available in Windows Creators Update, you could try the "Bluelight Shield" feature in Acer Quick Access, you can download Acer Quick Access from Acer support site.
