You can correct the colors of the screen

The laptop is phenomenal. I'm not sure I even need to go into why. I've never encountered those 64 gigabytes of RAM. I still have a few games to test and some 3D rendering, but hey, looking at this laptop I saw that people were mentioning two main things. Should it be yellow? No, the backlight is adjustable, and as much as I want red, the smooth transition between all colors really hits the spot. Second, and most importantly, you will see online that this laptop has some color issues on the monitor. I'm not sure why that is, but hey, if you're going to get this laptop, you should look for programs on the laptop and find the control panel. From this menu, use the search bar and type in "color" and you will see one called "color management". On the third tab, called "Advanced," you'll see a "Display Calibration" section that includes a "Display Calibration" button. Click that button and the window will go full screen (I recommend taking it out of full screen so you can see how the colors affect things you're used to). For the most part, you can skip everything until you see the three color sliders for settings. I first noticed the color issue when I was looking at a purple Minecraft nether portal and it was blue. So I opened the portal image on Google Images and kept it in the background and lowered the blue slider about halfway and some others just a little until it seemed normal to me, then skipped the rest of the menus to confirm the setting. This fixes it I think, but if you're really into digital art you might find a way to test these settings more closely than just looking at the image. (For example, if you have a second monitor that you trust, make sure you plug it in and let the image window float between menus while you make adjustments so you can compare better.) Still, I hope someone gets this helped because I've seen a lot of concern about it. .
