Studio Display XDR Crashes Still Persist
The monitor here is more of a iPhone with a huge display and a thunderbolt input than a typical HDMI monitor though. The macOS updates include updates for the OS running on the Studio Display, so it wasn’t as much the macOS update itself breaking external displays as the OS on the Studio Display bei

MBP 16 inch display ruined me, is Studio Display XDR my only option?
Generally, my experience using the old studio display on Mac just wasn’t ideal. I also really don’t recommend these Apple monitors as gaming monitors because the studio display xdr but also the original studio display and new version of the bass studio display seemingly do no overdrive so everything

Best Monitor for Print Photography (Eizo CG2700X or Apple Studio Display XDR)
The Studio Display XDR seems really impressive and we’ll need to see how well the mini LED tech performs as it is constantly getting better and I would expect Apple to have a good algorithm. If you can’t tell the difference between it and an OLED then it would almost be a perfect display. I don’t th

Dual Studio Display XDR and MacBook Air M4 Compatibility
I called Apple Care this morning and they have no idea what is causing the issues. I also tested my wife's macbook pro M5 with TB4 ports and had the same issue. Luckily, I still have my 2022 studio displays and they work. I reconnected the old displays with Apple Care on the phone so they know I am

Dual Studio Display XDR and MacBook Air M4 Compatibility
There’s a thread on MacRumors with more people reporting similar issues https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/studio-display-xdr-impressions.2479042/ I bought 2 XDR for my m2 pro Mac mini and have the same issues. Only 1 will work at a time. Same issue on my work m4 pro MacBook 14in. I spent 3 hours

Has anyone tested the Studio Display (XDR) on Intel Macs / Windows PCs yet?
UPDATE: I brought my Dell Latitude 3520 work laptop into the Apple Store and plugged it into the SD XDR using the Thunderbolt 5 cable and could not get it above 1080p 60hz. It showed “Wired Display” in settings and I wasn’t able to control brightness (not surprised). But it looked beautiful even at

Incredibly frustrated with the new studio display XDR
I’ve engaged Apple about it but lots of posts about this with 2 Studio Display XDRs. They should be able to both run at 60 at a minimum and having 2 only lights up on an m4 pro. I have 2 machines and swap between an m4 pro for work and an m4 max for personal use and the max is perfect on all cases.

Why is no one talking about the lag with Magic Trackpad 2 on Silicon Macs?
Man, I got my Magic Trackpad 2 a week ago, to use it with my new Studio Display XDR paired with my 14" M3 Max MacBook Pro. This is my first external trackpad, so a new experience for me. And yes, I immediately noticed what you're describing!! The MacBook's built in trackpad is noticeably more respon

Is there any monitor that can match Apple Liquid Retina XDR display
Late to the party but had the same wish. I bought a high end miniLED IPS screen with 1152 local dimming zones. It still can't match the macbook pros screen. Maybe the problem is that my desktop PC was on windows, which is notably bad when it comes to HDR. So I stuck using SDR. When using SDR local d

Apple Studio XDR bugging/freezing
Same here. I got my Studio Display XDR yesterday. It did this yesterday and then just now at the worst possible time – I had just entered a presale code to buy concert tickets! The Mac freezes / kernel panics, then reboots. Connected to a Mac Studio M2 Ultra running Tahoe 26.3.1. I'm running in with
