Hey, Do you know if the Nano-textured glass effects the image quality in any way compared to the Standard glass version ?

I bought one 2 months ago. I love it.

*Hey Peter. Thanks for making this video and going to the trouble of actually explaining why a five year old monitor can be far superior to a brand new one. Newer isn't always better. I get it and I agree such specs are essential for image colour and density correction and image quality evaluation prior to performing a grade on a project. One simply cannot effectively grade a project unless they can fully see the colour space and know they are seeing the true accuracy of the source camera footage in its extant condition prior to attempting to correct or modify image colour and density of exposure.*

It would be great if Apple release a new monitor today.

I understand your point, smart move from you! the only downside is I bet Apple will update this in the next year or two. I only will buy this used for $2,5K or something like that.

Peter, you should give yourself more credit than you do! You're absolutely a professional. I have to say though, ff anyone is about to spend big money on a monitor for editing and grading, get the CG319X or the 2700X. EIZO is one of very few brands that will last in the long run. They are not sexy in any way, nor are they spec-monsters. But they’re UNIFORM and performs to spec every day for a lifetime. Calibration should be done at least once every quarter, and their software + built-in colorimeters are above everyone else. Using a non-repetedly-calibrated monitor is like playing guitar without tuning it.

What monitor arm are you using?

Ha! My question answered in video form. I'll take it 😅

Nope, been prioritising other things this year.

I see the worth of this a monitor, I know it really worth it's price. I'm waiting (practising) the moment when my skills and revenue will match the quality and price of the monitor 😀Thanks for sharing 🙏😊

Peter, är det Ergotrons HX du använder?

Wait I didn't get that....Did you say this monitor is 5 years old??? 😂😂😂😂😂 Great video as always!

En fantastiskt cool skärm det där. Kommer ihåg när den utannonserades, kan inte fatta att det var 5(!) år sen! Kul att höra dina tankar kring den 😀 Ska själv skaffa en ny skärm. Har alltid använt min MPP inbyggda 16 tums skärm - och den är fantastisk. Men liiiite liten. För min del blir det nog en Apple Studio Display. Ser fram emot större arbetsyta!

The other BIG thing to keep in mind is the display’s resale value at the, let’s say, 10 year mark. It’ll still be worth several thousand dollars. After 10 years! The $1000 27” Thunderbolt Displays still go for $250 on eBay. That’s CRAZY. So if Apple updates the Pro Display XDR and you decide to buy, you could probably sell yours in a few years for around $3k+ to help pay for the new one. Great video, Peter!

That is a pretty sweet monitor! Also, it’s a business expense and a write off. 😜😁👍

does this monitor even work with non-apple devices? can a computer change this monitor’s colorspace?

Today let's see if an upgrade launches, wwdc 10 june 2024

A good monitor is important but high brightness and high resolution isn’t that important to color accuracy. Just because a monitor is very bright and vivid does not mean it’s color accurate. To ensure color accuracy you should always calibrate yourself of pay someone else to do it. For PC you can use Calman to calibrate your monitor. Most companies only calibrate a monitor to Delta E>2. Best color accuracy should be less than >1 and close to zero as possible. For Mac you can use Calibrite though they’re not as good as calman and really just create a profile for your computer to use that’s more accurate but it will use your computers color science to do it.

Still doesn’t make this monitor outdated 🤷🏻

Apple made this reference monitor to be cheaper than other reference monitors that cost $50,000+. That is the point of the XDR display. If you are making movies & so on this is a cheaper option with reference monitor qualities that is cheaper.

🤟❤

OMG!😧

As a pro designer, I also love this monitor, but it's hard to justify a $7k investment on a 5-year-old tech. I'm hopeful Apple will have an XDR 2.0 coming maybe this year in October when they have a Mac event. Ideally, Apple would have a 30" Studio Display at half of the price of the XDR. That would be a nice move.

Peter’s wrong by saying you don’t need to calibrate. If you’re going to be doing color grading in any form, you will need to calibrate it every couple weeks or so. so saying that just cause it comes calibrated out the box it doesn’t need a calibration is wrong. I’m the truth is this unit is not four color grading. It does not do 100% black you would be better off with a high-end Sony or FSI unit.

Could have been good if the display wasn't locked at 60 Hz... It is also just IPS,not impressed. 32" is quite too big too. Surely a decent reference monitor but most people will watch your videos on a cheap screen or even a TN panel for most of them. Worth the money? Probably not.

@@PeterLindgren1 strong disagree, I cannot live without 120Hz on my Macbook. Having a desktop monitor or 27"+ in front of me at 60Hz only? NO WAY. What's the point of working on a premium computer if it cannot even have smooth scrolling or motion. Even for Web browsing or coding it is critical and a very good feeling on day to day basis. So yes, you will not export 240Hz in a video, but that will be so much more pleasing to the eyes. I rather have more monitors with a high refresh rate than a bigger resolution on one and locked to 60, any day. IPS is just inferior to OLED on any aspect. It is sure better than TN or VA, but still beaten any time. Especially in games, or good films that will showcase deep blacks and infinite contrast. With no real issues regarding burn-in either. Accuracy is important but not a deal breaker either if you are there for 98% of the way, other quality of life things are here. That monitor is far obsolete nowadays with Vision Pro and the freshly released Vision OS v2. So no, this is a total worthless piece of hardware IMO.
