Hello,
I'm a 29 year old software developer. After spending years studying and working in my field, I discovered I have astigmatism during a recent visit to the ophthalmologist. I primarily used my personal laptop, a Lenovo ThinkBook 15 G2 ITL, which unfortunately has low default brightness. I didn't notice it at first, but a colleague pointed out that even the maximum brightness of the monitor was still strangely low. After a firmware update that I hoped would fix this problem, everything got even worse.
To alleviate these issues, I purchased an external monitor, but despite the laptop detecting it, the external display remains black and unusable. Given my current challenges, I would appreciate advice on a new laptop that could help mitigate these problems and provide a more comfortable user experience.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.
