I found this true as well. The original one looks closest to my iMac screen.
me too...until i found this one (i think i got it in this thread somewhere).
it's warm and better than the default. trust me and try it.

Does anyone know what this error generated in the Color Sync Utility: verify profile means?
"Tag 'cprt': Text tag has an incorrect length"
"Tag 'cprt': Text tag has an incorrect length"
This one is perfect. Thanks for sharing. The others were definitely far too blue.
I'm sorry, I followed the steps but still couldn't figure out how to try a downloaded profile. this is my first mac
edit: figured it out myself. forget it

This is the best one that I've seen. Thank you: the display looks much better.
Me too. This is the best I feel... at least the color is richer and deeper than default on the whole although it is warmer.
However.. I have one issue about Dark Blue..
For example, when I go to facebook hompage. The top Dark Blue banner seems still wash out.
Do you feel that too?
Does this color profile still not improve Dark Blue range??

You might want to try out the the CustomMacRumors profile.
sorry, I have tried. but.... some black levels disappeared
Are there any better color profile possible?

Check out thread 199 & 201 by ZenGravy. They are the best IMHO. I have been using the 280 since his post.
do you feel that if it is richer in color or still washout in your MBA when using 280?
i think we need a new thread where all the profiles are listed so we can vote which is better.......

It is very easy to get rich colors with inexpensive software like SuperCal. You may think the rich colors are great. But the colors are not accurate to real world. I found the 280 matches very close to my 2007 iMac screen. I find that my photos print close to what the screen shows. I guess it depends if you want vibrant looking colors or you want color accuracy.
In fact I have tried 280 color profile, it is much better than 6500K, at least...6500K is too warm. 280 is not.
but i want to ask what brightness % level are you using under 280, in order to get the best viewing result?

With power I am usually 2 clicks away from full brightness and on battery since I am trying to conserve I am at least 4 clicks from full.
I hope that helps.
This thread needs a bump! I had no idea about this thread until I stumbled across http://www.recenseo.me/post/11570077869/essential-trick-for-macbook-air-owners from Zite!
Had to get up from bed to check out if my panel was an LG and yep, it sure was. Calibrated and looks great! Thanks!

Ooh, I just tried the 280. I like it a lot so far! Better separation between grey and blue. The macrumors forum looks alot better
I just found this thread
I want to say thanks to all the people that made the different setting profiles and esp for the one poster that gave the very easy to follow instructions
I am using 280 and was wondering is the ideal setting supposed to be 2 from the highest brightness setting or is the ideal setting at full brightness bc at 2 from the highest the screen looks a bit washed out

The panel to panel variation in these is a bit too high for tweaked settings to be reliable. These are basically tweaked by eye on one display in the worst manner possible.
Yes... what looks good to you obviously. Note the variation in opinion. This won't give you accurate color.
There isn't really. Attempting to do so would really smoosh your details in saturated primary colors, so you might get slightly more vibrance, but you'd kill the detail.
I've never heard of anyone planting malware in icc profiles.
None of the stuff listed in this thread is a really good idea.
