What this means for the display
The up to 2,000 nits display delivers stunning clarity with a 10,000,000:1 contrast ratio. It supports P3, Adobe RGB, DICOM and more, and shows colors at reference quality, something once reserved for monitors costing around $30,000. (Anyone who ever used an Apple Pro Display XDR will know how transformative that product was on introduction).
The display engine in the M5 Pro and M5 Max chips used in the MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR is very powerful. It controls the color and luminance of every pixel in real time, which is why it can deliver precise color accuracy. To achieve this, it adjusts each pixel at sub-millisecond speed, and refresh rates run adaptively from 10Hz to 120Hz.
It even monitors and adapts to how each pixel is used, to prolong the panel’s life. If you opt for nanotexture glass, which many pros will do, that is literally etched into the cover glass. With or without nanotexture, the displays share the same fingerprint-resistant coating.
