How do I know if the Studio Display is accurate in color
XDR has a rec2020 (HDR) panel, the others go up to only P3 SDR. use the same display profile on all macs for starters (709-A or bt-709 for example) and switch off true tone / night shift mac screens and especially the XDR ones are super accurate...if you feed them correctly that is, so learn about t

What 32-inch glossy monitors are currently available that can match the brightness and contrast of Macbook Pros?
The pro display XDR I believe is one of the few. First of all 4K is not going to be as good as the pixel density on the MacBook Pro but if you’re targeting just 4K, I would probably look into a good mini LED monitor. The issue is that the MacBook Pro has a huge number of dimming zones on a very smal

Apple discontinues Pro Display XDR
Much less angry about the SD XDR pricing now. Being 2X the cost of the Studio Display was unreasonable, but being ~66% of the cost of the Pro Display XDR with better brightness/color accuracy/connectivity/local dimming is a much more sensible interpretation. Yes, it got a little smaller, but ergonom

Apple Studio Display XDR White Paper
Curious what the reflectivity of the older displays were with this being 1.65%, I wasn’t too impressed with the old displays for reflectivity. Edit: Old Pro Display XDR was also 1.65% per its whitepaper(I know this year the LG G6 is supposed to have 0.3% reflectivity which seems probably low enough

Apple fixed it. Studio Display XDR.
There are other "cheap" medical grade monitors. For example, this one from LG is about $3000: https://solutions.lg.com/us/diagnostic-monitors/lg-32hl512d-b The Apple display's specs are pretty outrageous. It's definitely in a niche, but it's the first and only occupant of that niche. The odd thing a

My Experience with the Kuycon G32P
Writing this whilst using my G32P... Really loving this monitor, absolutely no issues with it and the only monitor that I'd say can visually compete with this is the Apple Pro Display XDR. I've tried the new LG 6k monitor but the matte coating completely ruins the display and makes it look dull and

Is it okay to record in HDR with iPhone 15 Pro Max or no?
To be very blunt: based on this comment, you should just switch to SDR on your iPhone and call it a day. I have been editing for over a decade now and that’s what I do myself. HDR compatibility in general is still not great. Long story short, if you can colour grade really well in SDR, it will look

Real-world experience with the ViewSonic 5K (VP2788-5K) — color accuracy, reference modes, and how it compares to Apple
TL;DR Same image, three screens.ViewSonic = neutral & honest.MacBook = very good middle ground.iPad = looks great, but adds punch. What you’re seeing here is the same image displayed on three very different classes of screens: Top: ViewSonic colour-critical monitor (IPS, hardware-calibratable, Rec.7

My feedback to Microsoft regarding HDR
https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mac-help/mchl50ecf3c4/mac "Note: These options only appear when you’re using Apple Pro Display XDR, Apple Studio Display, a 14-inch MacBook Pro (2021 or later) or a 16-inch MacBook Pro (2021 or later)." A 16inch MacBook Pro from 2021 goes for less than 900 euros

Apple's Studio Display 2 Reportedly on Track to Launch This Year With These New Features
Fair enough mate I'm glad it's been working out in real world use. You will have to excuse my very mild skepticism because colour science is well...a known science, and the pro display XDR doesn't expose many controls for calibration so maybe that's why we haven't seen any good calibration reports f
