Studio Display XDR

lol. No. There is no monitor that “annihilates” the Studio XDR. I own it. I would agree that it’s not worth the price, but making a statement like yours is ridiculous. Especially if you don’t own and use it daily to understand what it does. Update: You edited your comment and still yet again are com

Because lots here on reddit don't seem to believe burn-in is still possible on OLED LOL. Just less likely with improved OLED panels but as you can see here definitely possible even on latest tandem OLED panels. Here's an example of some really bad burn-in on an OLED iPad iPad Pro M4 signs of burn-in

Apple released a significant firmware update (Version 26.4) today, March 24, 2026, specifically for the new Studio Display (2026) and the Studio Display XDR that launched earlier this month. While Apple’s official release notes are often "concise" (to put it politely), early documentation and user r

The Studio Display XDR is noticeably better in multiple areas compared to the LG (owned both, returned the GM950B). The local dimming implementation is beautiful and seamless on the XDR, across SDR/HDR and mixed content. Not convinced they are the same panel, if they are, Apple's control software/ha

I do have both (one at work and one at home). The only real-world benefit of the Pro Display XDR is its size, and the associated real estate. On the Pro Display XDR, the blooming is noticeably worse, the uniformity is far worse due to the backlight being uneven across its zones, and the viewing angl

Yeah, like the other person said, Apple built what you wanted 6 years ago.They were and still are far ahead of the game. It's been out so long it was discontinued recently, with the release of the Studio Display XDR (5K 27" miniLED 120Hz with 2304 dimming zones, the Pro Display XDR was 6K 32" but ha

Honestly, I think the issue was just that only I think the M4 pro and Max and M5 pro and Max support it. I think what we might see is that with M6 you get thunderbolt five on the base chip and then they will probably feel a bit more comfortable releasing 6K 120 monitor. Like 5K120 is supported as fa

Got mine for some days now, paired with my 14" M3 Max MacBook Pro. I got the glossy one, because Nano Texture ruins sharpness for me and I really don't need it either. I work with photo and video, doing editing and color, and I am very very sensitive to picture quality. I have to say that overall is

I'll be honest, I've always wanted the Studio Display but it's always been well out of my budget. About 5 years ago I think bought a Dell UltraSharp 27" 4K which was a massive upgrade coming from a crappy AOC 24" 1080p TN panel.As I use my parents M4 iMac when visiting them I do notice the amount of

Yeah man that's bad. Some people are just more sensitive to the PWM flickering. Have you upgraded the monitor firmware? The latest firmware seems to have reduced the flickering somewhat: Apple released a significant firmware update (Version 26.4) today, March 24, 2026, specifically for the new Studi
