How to run the gray test

Use a neutral viewing angle, disable dynamic display enhancements, and compare adjacent tones rather than judging absolute brightness.

01

Check the full range

Start with 17 levels. Every patch should remain visually distinct from the patches beside it, from black through white.

02

Inspect both extremes

Use Shadow detail and Highlight detail. Look for merged tones, abrupt steps, color tint, or flickering in the darkest and brightest ranges.

03

Verify uniformity

Enter fullscreen Uniformity mode and sweep from low to high values. Compare the center, edges, and corners for patches, shadows, or color shifts.

How to read the result

This is a visual screening tool. Browser color management, room lighting, viewing angle, and display settings can all affect what you see.

Healthy grayscale response

Adjacent patches stay distinguishable, transitions are even, and a solid gray field looks consistent across the panel.

Possible display issue

Merged blocks, visible bands, localized bright or dark areas, tint, or persistent shapes may indicate calibration, uniformity, or panel-aging problems.
