I've just bought a M4 Mac mini and considering 4k or 5k monitor should buy. But now I am confused with the WindowServer's theory.
In theory higher resolution will cause more RAM usage in WindowServer, So I went to Apple Store and checked how much RAM WindowServer would take on StudioDisplay(5k)...
Hello Folks!
I was using a MacBook Pro M1 Max maxed out since its initial release up to macOS 13 Ventura. When on my desk, I was plugging it to a Sonnet Echo 5 Thunderbolt 4 Hub which was in turn plugged to my peripherals which are essentially a Pro Display XDR and an Audient Evo 8 interface...
Hello,
I would need advice. I have been using my Studio Display for a year without any issues; the display quality is fine. However, in dark scenes where dark gray to black predominates, I see a bright shadow in the bottom left and right corners. According to my research, this phenomenon is...
Hi friends,
Just got the SD and used Brigadier to get Bootcamp loaded on my PC. However, when clicks the control panel, it shows "no supported external display connected". I'm not sure if this is because the Brigadier only automatically downloads BC 6.1, but SD supports requires BC 6.1.17, so...
I just received delivery of a brand new Apple Studio Display from Abt, my favorite local Chicago area retailer. The display was hand-delivered and the box is pristine. I noticed, however, that the label on the box that shows the date Abt received the item from Apple to their warehouse was a full...
Hi,
I received my brand new M2 MacBook Pro 2023 with 16-inch Liquid Retina XDR and my Studio Display a month ago.
The whites on both displays are completely off: more red on the Studio Display, and more yellow on the MBP.
True Tone doesn't fix the issue.
Changing the reference modes doesn't...
For the last couple of security patches on macOS 13, I've been seeing prompts on my 16" MBP 2021 to trust my Mac Studio Display after the update. I've been using the display for about a year now and suddenly with these updates, I'm being prompted every time, including the 13.5 update. I don't...
I currently have a 27 inch Intel iMac from 2020 and pair it with a LG 27GP950-B monitor. When enabling HDR on the LG monitor, everything looks dull and awful. I think it's because Mac isn't rendering the UI correctly to adapt to HDR. If I replaced this setup with a Mac Studio along with one XDR...
First time seeing this in the hands of a consumer. He's a little harsh on it at times, so doesn't come off as a paid promotion.
What do people think about this?
I want to buy a studio display and noticed this one is $1,699.00 CAD ($300 OFF) since it is refurbished.

I have an M1 Mac Mini connected to an ASD. I have 4 external hard drives, 3 of which are powered and one which is portable so USB powered. All 4 are USB 3. Before the Mini, I had an iMac so had enough USB 3 ports. I bought a powered USB hub when I got the Mini and plugged all the external hard...
I have a 5K 27" iMac (2014) which I maxed out at purchase with a quad core Intel i7. It has 25GB RAM and a 500GB HDD.
I also have an M1 MacBook pro with 16GB RAM and a 250GB HBB. Most of my storage is on iCloud Drive from both machines (which effectively mirror each other via iCloud drive) -...

One of them - right in the center of the screen
The reseller doesn't want to return or exchange (although the purchase was made 2 days ago), because the product have already been unpacked. The only way they suggest is that I...

I own a small video business and need a good monitor to pair with my mac studio. I am not a colorist but do need accurate colors for my video work. I am so torn with all the different displays... I just want something that looks good and will be accurate. For me it's between the Studio Display...
I've got a studio display and when I connect it to my laptop, the screen gets completely washed out after about a minute. I've changed the computer it's connected to, changed the cable and power cycled the screen.
Anyone else had this issue or found a way to resolve it?
Hi,
So I have to use a work laptop for my job. It’s a Surface laptop 3. I’m also buying a new Mac Mini soon (when/if they upgrade it). So I want to use both machines with the Studio Display.
The surface only has USB-C output, but that’s fine.. I think. Honestly, if it only runs in 1440p mode...
