    New Displays only with Thunderbolt 5

    I am new here and would like to start with a thought. The Studio Display is really nice. It can't do much, but it looks very good and thanks to Samsung we know that it's not as expensive as we all thought at first. It's also virtually unique on the market in terms of build quality. The Pro...

    Resolved MacBook Pro display bottom peeling? Additional advice?

    Hello all. I got one of the new M3 Pro MacBook Pros recently and less than a month after purchase, the bottom patch connecting the display to the main body seems to have detached itself. Unfortunately, this is after the two week refund period, but I did already pay for AppleCare in advance. I’ve...

    Do M3 MBPs use true 10-bit panels?

    I think there's consensus that the Pro Display XDR is a true 10-bit panel. In other words, in theory, it does not perform temporal dithering/FRC (Frame Rate Control) on the image. With that in mind, if you look at the marketing for the M3 MBPs, it mentions the following: XDR (Extreme Dynamic...

    Advice req: buying monitor for MacBook Pro / Air

    I’ve used my trusty iMac 5k 27inch (2015) for many years and loved it. I have a separate, even older MacBook Air for mobile use and just used shared online drives. Now I’m looking at a new MacBook Pro M3-Pro 16-inch coming into the environment. Great machine - but I would really want to run it...

    Has anyone paired 2 Studio Displays with Pro XDR?

    I am looking to turn my single Pro Display XDR into a 3 monitor setup and was considering adding on new Studio Displays on either side. For anyone that has done this, does the shorter height or lower quality difference throw you off at all from the XDR? Any issues in general? Please upload...

    No backlight screen when booting Macbook Pro 13" mid 2014

    When I start up my macbook pro the screen stays black (I can see it is doing something when shining through logo with flashlight) after a few seconds (when the horizontal line is building up) the screen lights up. And everything is OK. When in reboot mode, recovery mode and also safe mode, I do...

    MacBook5,1 - Display hangs on frame before bootmgr loads

    So I was just using Rufus to make a bootable UEFI:NTFS Windows 11 USB, and the display refused to respond, but the backlight was fine. Any way to fix this? I might need help from @tsialex for any BootROM related issues.

    Dark display on 2014 MBP

    So I have a 2014 MBP retina that has held up great for almost 10 years now. Over the past few years the display has started doing something where it goes dark except for the presence of the backlight (producing a very dark gray screen that is barely distinguishable from total black when the...

    iPhone 15 Pro What phone did you upgrade from and have you noticed a difference?

    Personally I had an iPhone 13 128gb and have chose the iPhone 15 Pro. The camera is night and day and I do really notice the smooth scrolling from the 120hz display. AOD is pointless imo, but I like the dynamic island. Also my eyes don’t feel as jaded reading in dark mode at night. Battery is...
