Understanding Low Blue Light Mode

  • Adjust the level of blue light reduction if options are available, choosing a setting that balances comfort and color accuracy.
  • Exit the menu to save your settings.

Customizing Blue Light Reduction

Some versions of the Gigabyte M28U firmware allow further customization of the blue light reduction levels. To do this:

  • Access the Blue Light Reduction menu as described above.
  • Select the Custom or Advanced option if available.
  • Adjust the sliders or settings to fine-tune the amount of blue light filtering according to your preference.
  • Save your settings and exit the menu.

Additional Tips for Better Sleep

While Low Blue Light mode can significantly improve your sleep quality, consider combining it with other healthy habits:

  • Avoid screens at least an hour before bedtime.
  • Use night mode or screen dimming features on other devices.
  • Maintain a consistent sleep schedule.
  • Create a relaxing bedtime routine.
