    Hi,

    I searched for hours on Google without results. That's why I decided to post it here.
    I got a new laptop display B156HAN01.1 which is very good compared to the default one with bad colors. Whatever, on my new display, colors look awesome, but I have difficulty calibrating the white correctly.

    I would like to know if someone on the forum has an ICC profile for the B156HAN01.1 laptop screen?
    I don't want to pay 300$ for something I will only use one time. I'm not the person who will calibrate the screen each month. Just one time at the beginning...

    Thank you very much.

    Color calibration is unique to the monitor and not the same across different samples of the same display. Calibration is specifically correcting the unique output of that sample.

    And; that calibration drifts over time.

    If the OP is doing color sensitive work (i.e. accuracy required) then investing in a monitor calibration package is required. It is not a one time thing; depending on how important the work is; weekly or even daily is the usual 'normal' - even if just done monthly; it is far from a one time process...
