oh, well, that's a clear signal that they're not going to come out with the rumored Pro Display XDR successor.
I would mostly agree that that is like, if I had to put money on something, that's what I would put it on.
But if Apple was going to come out with a Pro Display XDR successor,
in a year or a WWC in the summer, they would say the exact same damn thing.
They would say the Studio Display XDR replaces, because it does, it does replace it.
They stopped selling the Pro Display XDR.
They started selling Studio Display, it replaces it.
And then, you know, WWC comes along, they're like, ah, Pro Display XDR too.
You know, that did replace it, but now here's this.
They're never going to say like, oh, save your money because we might introduce a new bigger one.
So my fingers are still crossed.
You know, keep hope alive, yada, yada.
There were rumors of a Pro Display XDR successor.
This one is not called Pro Display XDR.
It's called Studio Display XDR.
So the name is still available, but right now this replaces it.
Maybe you can find used ones cheap or increasingly cheap, but like...
as we'll get to in a second with the specs on this the pro display xdr is starting to become the like oh i don't care about image quality i just want a lot of pixels you know because as the as the image quality improves across the entire industry the pro display xdr specs look less impressive but the number of pixels you get stays just as impressive because there's a lot of them and the screen is big so i'm glad i've still got my monitor i hope it never breaks i would not want to replace it with one of these despite the fact that it has better picture quality in a lot of ways
Pro Display XDR has 576 or something.
2,300 dimming zones is pretty good.
