    Are M1 14" and 16" same on colors representation?

    I was comparing several 14” vs 16” in stores yesterday. It looked to me that MBP 14” shows more somewhat blueish picture compared to 16" and others. I double-checked to compare color profiles, true tone and night shift settings to make sure they are identical, comparing two laptops one near...

    I just returned my M1 Pro (screen calibration issues)

    I expected the screen to match my iPad Pro M1 but the iPad is much more contrasty. I’m a designer and photographer and I couldn’t accept such huge differences in screen color out of the box.

    Which has the most colour accurate screen M1 Pro or Air?

    Hey, I've understood in the past that Macbook Pros have had better colour accuracy than Airs. Is this still the case with the M1 laptops? I'm wanting to advise a friend who will be occasionally doing colour critical work. Thanks in advance, B.

    Watch Youtube on MacBook Pro - how?

    Hi Guys! Can you share your perspective on how to watch youtube on MacBook Pro (recent years' models, with wide gamut display)? The only browser that supports color management for Youtube videos is Safari. All the others like Chrome and Firefox only support it for still images. So you get...

    Display and Bezel Color

    Not intended to be a "what color is better post" is already know black bezels have more noticeable fingerprints and scratches while the white attracts dust and is a distraction. Now I'm mainly here to ask, Does anyone feel the colors on the display look better with one bezel vs the other?

    LG Ultrafine 5k color range?

    I have searched all over the web but no one mentions what the monitors color range is. Apple says P3 but how much is it compared to Adobe Rgb? I'm buying a new monitor and the only important things for me are 4-5k resolution and really good color range. I have also been looking at the Dell 5k...
