Apple Pro Display XDR Overview

By B&H Photo's

The Apple 32" Pro Display XDR 16:9 Retina 6K HDR IPS Display is built with a 32" IPS (In-Plane Switching) panel featuring a 6016 by 3384 6K resolution with Retina display technology that produces crisp, vivid images.

As a cherry on top, its 218 ppi (pixels per inch) rating helps to deliver sharp and detailed images. The Pro Display XDR's main connectivity option is a single Thunderbolt 3 port, which supports up to 96W of host charging, and it has three USB 2.0 Type-C ports for charging and syncing other devices. With the power of Thunderbolt 3, users can daisy-chain up to six displays to their accompanying Mac Pro.

Design
The Pro Display XDR has a sleek and refined all-aluminum chassis with 9mm borders. This reduction in bezel size offers a more immersive viewing experience whether you're hard at work or taking a breather. Either or, users can kick back and relax thanks to its wide viewing angles, which preserve color and image quality. The honeycomb design on the back is meant to act as a heatsink, which keeps it cool while operating at high brightness levels.
Finish
The Apple Pro Display XDR is available in two versions: one with a standard glass finish and another with nano-texture glass. Both are engineered for low reflectivity, but the nano-texture finish offers enhanced glare reduction for those who are a bit more sensitive or work under harsh lighting conditions.
XDR
XDR stands for Extreme Dynamic Range and is essentially HDR (High Dynamic Range) at Apple's standards. The backlighting consists of an array of 576 LEDs that can sustain a brightness level of 1000 nits and can even reach up to 1600 nits for a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio to truly emphasize the differences between light and dark.
Color Accuracy & Calibration
Featuring a P3-wide color gamut and 10-bit color depth for 1.073 billion colors, the Pro Display is ideal for color-critical work. Additionally, its 576 LEDs are also individually calibrated and work with an algorithm that modulates their intensity to produce the best possible image.
Reference Modes
To adapt to the variety of standards content creators work with in media such as digital cinema (P3-DCI), photography (P3-D65), HDTV video (BT.709-BT.1886), design and print (P3-D50), Internet and web (sRGB), etc., Reference Modes reconfigure the display to match. It optimizes values like color space, white point, gamma, and brightness. Alternatively, users can also set up their own custom profile as needed.
True Tone technology
True Tone technology on the Pro Display XDR utilizes two ambient light sensors, one on the front and one on the back, to measure and then to adjust the color intensity of the display for accurate colors based on your environment.
Optional Stand & VESA Adapter
Since the Pro Display XDR does not come with a stand, users can purchase either the Pro Stand or VESA adapter for mounting.

Asked by: Frank
Yes. Check Youtube for a bunch of tests people do with different computers. PCs and even Mac's running windows mostly seem to work with a few limitations sometimes. (5k instead of 6k at times, and no HDR at times, all depending on what you hook up and which gfx card etc.) But they do work!

Can this monitor be used with a colorimeter to produce an extremely accurate profile? Which device(s)? I print my own stuff and this is very important to me.
Asked by: Richard
I guess is possible but I haven't try that. The color accuracy on this monitor is spot on. I don't see the need for calibration. I had to do calibrations on my other two LG 5K monitors but not this one. My prints are the same in color tonality as the monitor. I hope this helps.
