Ever since Apple launched its M4 MacBook Pro, people have been buzzing about the device's sleek design and impressive display features. But here's a surprise: Apple quietly updated the display technology of these new models. Now, rumors are swirling that the upcoming Pro Display XDR will get the same quantum-dot technology. This could mean better colors and faster response times compared to older models.

Apple hasn't officially confirmed this, but a well-known display analyst, Ross Young, spilled the beans. He mentioned that the new quantum-dot display films offer a better color gamut and improved motion performance. This could be a game-changer for professionals who need top-notch display quality.

The Pro Display XDR hasn't had a major update in around five years. The current version features a 6K resolution and 1, 600 nits of brightness, but it's limited to 60Hz refresh rate. With a $4, 999 price tag (plus an extra $999 for the Pro Stand), it's one of the most expensive displays out there. Will Apple introduce a more affordable version? Probably not, but we can hope.

There's also speculation about an Apple Silicon chip in the new Pro Display XDR, similar to the A13 Bionic chip in the Studio Display. This could bring features like spatial audio and Siri voice commands. But when will we see this new display? That's still a mystery.
