Help with White Balance and a NOT OK in my report.

[canyon1991]

Hi,

I have a Spyder5 and after a lot of tries, I finally managed to get it all working and colours appear to be accurate to my eyes.  However, I cannot get my laptop screen and my secondary screen to match in terms of the whites. If I set both screens to 7000K ( I know is not standard, but I like it like that), the laptop monitor doesn’t look anywhere near that, It looks more like 6500k. By testing the only way I got closer was by having the Secondary screen at 7000K and laptop screen at 7700K – even then is not close enough, it appears to me it has too much red.

My other issue is after both screens have been calibrated and the profile installed – I do a verification and it comes back with a  “Maximum ΔE*00      NOT OK” on both screen reports.

I attached both reports, any help is welcome.

Thank you in advance

Hi,

Have a look at the FAQ.

I do a verification and it comes back with a “Maximum ΔE*00 NOT OK” on both screen reports.

You chose the SpyderChecker chart which contains values that are out of gamut for your display. Choose the default verification testchart instead.

Thank you for your help.

I thought about that after I posted – so I did a new report this morning and this time with ‘Large verification testchart’ and it came back with same issue (different colours though). I have attached my latest reports.

Ultrawide monitor – I am having issues with the blacks, one shade of green and one shade of blue.

laptop monitor – I am having issues with blues.
