So prüfen Sie ein LG Display in einem MacBook Air und lassen es besser aussehen

Wenn Sie ein neueres MacBook Air haben, sollten Sie darauf achten. Einige der MacBook Airs werden mit Samsung-Displays geliefert, andere mit LG-Displays, beide sind hochwertige Displays, aber das Standard-Farbprofil des LG ist leichter und etwas flacher. Die meisten Benutzer werden das wahrscheinlich nicht bemerken, aber wenn Sie ein MacBook Air mit einem Samsung-Display neben einem mit dem LG-Display sitzen, können Sie den Unterschied sehen. Dies kann leicht behoben werden, indem ein benutzerdefiniertes Farbprofil mit einem besseren Gamma verwendet wird. In diesem Beitrag erfahren Sie, wie Sie überprüfen können, welches Herstellerpanel Sie haben und wie Sie ein benutzerdefiniertes Farbprofil hinzufügen, das das LG-Display genauso schön macht wie das Samsung.

Suchen Sie nach einem LG Display mit dem MacBook Air

Mit demselben Befehl können Sie Hersteller und Modell eines LCDs überprüfen, das auf früheren Macs funktioniert. Sie können den Hersteller des Anzeigefelds des MacBook Air überprüfen.

• Starten Sie das Terminal (/ Programme / Dienstprogramme /)
• Kopieren Sie den folgenden Befehl, fügen Sie ihn in eine einzelne Zeile ein und drücken Sie die Eingabetaste:

Color LCD If the prefix is not “LP” then you have a Samsung display and there's no need to use the color profile or to follow the rest of the instructions, if it does start with LP (like the example shown), then proceed Add a Custom Color Profile for the MacBook Air's LG Display A user on MacRumors forums put together a custom color profile that really sharpens the display of the LG displays in some 2011 MacBook Air machines. Again, if you don't have an LG display then you shouldn't use this profile. Adding this color profile is reversible and you can always go back to the default if you don't like it. Download this .icc profile (or from here on GitHub) to the Desktop Hit Command+Shift+G and enter the following path: /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Displays/ Copy the downloaded .icc profile to that displays folder, you'll need to authenticate Open “System Preferences” and click on “Displays” Select the “Color” tab and uncheck the box next to “Show profiles for this display only” Click on the second “Color LCD” profile in the list (the top-most Color LCD profile is the default) If you have the LG display, you'll see a difference immediately. Contrasts are sharper, whites are whiter, and there is a much more clear differentiation between minor shades of colors and greys. If you decide you don't like the modified LG profile, just select top-most “Color LCD” in the list. You can also put the color profile into the user home library folder instead of the system library directory, but you'll probably have to make the folder yourself.
