    Two different websites claim different contrast ratio for the ROG Zephyrus GX501. Why is this happening and which one is the real one?

    Notebookcheck: claims 1312:1
    Ultrabookreview: 730:1

    What happens here?

    notebookcheck uses a much more expensive calibrator.
    more than double the price of the spyder4 pro.

    But that ratio seems a bit optimistic.
