- According to the reports, Apple is working on a study exhibition led by Mini planned for early 2026
- His code name was found in Apple’s software code, along with another that suggests two variations
- It is supposedly in its current trial phase
All eyes are in Apple and its next contestants for the title of Best Macbook, with rumors that suggest that the MacBook Pro with M5 motor will not be launched until 2026, together with the rumored M6 with the Redesign OLED. However, a new report suggests that Apple focuses on a new and immersive monitor for the early 2026.
According to Macrumors, Apple is working in Studio Display 2, which allegedly uses a backlight led by Mini, based on rumors and recent findings in the Apple software code. His code name is J427, which was present in the software code that Macrumors says that Apple published earlier than expected.
Macrumors, which could be a new professional exhibition of the XDR exhibition, but Mark Gurman previously informed that he could see the priority for Apple. On the other hand, it can simply be a second model of study screen 2 with a different price and slightly different specifications.
It is not the first time that Apple uses a led mini backlight: the Liquid Retina XDR retina is used (essentially, it is a mini backlighting with many local attenuation areas for a high contrast and brightness) for the MacBook Pro screens. I have only used a handful of MacBooks, but I have had a good experience with the mini-led technology in the best game monitors, and it is not surprising. Apple looks for a mini backlight led by this new study exhibition model.
The original study screen was well received, but falls short when it comes to HDR performance, partly due to not using a retina xDR liquid screen. Since this is a monitor designed for creative professionals, HDR’s low performance is a great inconvenience.
That is why it would be great to see that Studio Display 2 uses a mini-dried technology to increase deep black levels, brighter whites and greater contrast.
ANALYSIS: Do not sleep in mini-read on Oled … believe me
It may seem a bit disappointing to hear that the Display 2 Studio will essentially follow the MacBooks steps with a retroilumination led by Mini, given the rumors of a Redesign of Macbook Oled. Some would say that Apple should have done this with its first iteration of the monitor, but here we are.
However, I would not write mini-read compared to OLED. The deepest black levels and the highest update rates make OLED the clear winner, but Mini-Led does not deviate too far, especially since it has the benefit of a higher maximum brightness in most cases.
It is also important that this rumored monitor uses a higher update rate; The current study screen has an update rate of 60Hz, and for $ 1,599 / £ 1,499 / AU $ 2,499. Not only are there other monitors, including OLED, available in the market that are cheaper, but also have much higher update rates, which is important for creative work.
Keep in mind that nothing is still confirmed, but all the signs suggest that Apple fans receive a new and more impressive exhibition next year.
