I have worked with professional colour measuring equipment from a.o. I was surmising that hey hid this option because of its new wonky behavior when you do finally access it and they are trying to fix it, but now I am not so sure.

I certainly hope they unhide the Display Calibration Assistant and color profiles option - both color profiles and presets can coexist. See my thread here ('') for more info and a workaround. If you prefer to calibrate your display using the built in and easy to use Display Calibration Assistant, Apple decided that their factory calibrations are the best, and 'pros' shouldn't be able to color correct the displays on their $4,000++ MacBooks using a simple built in tool that has been around for decades. If you like displays with a dingy green hue and with reds that border on dark orange, you're all set. Color correction and color profiles are a big part of display calibration. They removed or hid the built in Display Calibration Assistant and color profiles for these presets where you are limited to adjusting the white point and luminance only? Apple's factory calibrations have always been and continue to be awful (to my eyes) - and the default calibration on the XDR displays are no exception. In System Preferences > Displays, users can fine-tune the calibration of the MacBook Pro's display by providing the white point and luminance values measured by the spectroradiometer and the expected values for their target.Īpple's support document includes additional tips for measuring and fine-tuning the calibration. The test patterns can be downloaded from the AVFoundation page on Apple's website under Related Resources > Color Test Patterns, with complete instructions available in Apple's support document.

The process involves using a spectroradiometer and a set of QuickTime movie test patterns from Apple to evaluate the calibration of the display. If your workflow requires custom calibration, you can measure your display, then fine-tune the calibration.

The factory display calibration process lets MacBook Pro users enjoy an exceptional viewing experience right out of the box. In addition, the factory calibration process enables sophisticated built-in algorithms to accurately reproduce a variety of color spaces used by media workflows today, including sRGB, BT.601, BT.709, and even P3-ST.2084 (HDR). The new MacBook Pro models feature XDR displays with mini-LED backlighting and support for one billion colors, but certain workflows may require custom calibration:Įvery MacBook Pro with Liquid Retina XDR display undergoes a state-of-the-art factory display calibration process on the assembly line to ensure the accuracy of the P3 wide color panel and the individual backlight LEDs.

Alongside the M2 Mac mini, which surprisingly didn’t launch alongside the M2 MacBooks, Apple is said to be working on a new Mac mini with M2 Pro that will replace the Intel-powered Mac mini model that Apple kept in the line up.In a new support document, Apple has detailed how to measure and fine-tune the calibration of the display on the new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.

In a December 2021 Power On newsletter, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman indicated that there will be two new Mac minis coming in 2022. Here’s what we’re still expecting to arrive this year.

And don’t forget that the autumn of 2022 will also bring an update to macOS, which could bring new features geared specifically for the newest Macs. That still leaves the following Macs in need of an Apple silicon update. Read Everything you need to know about the M2. Plus at WWDC in June 2022 Apple introduced the M2 chip in the MacBook Air and 13in MacBook Pro.

Apple’s already updated many of its machines, including the MacBook Air, Mac mini, 24-inch iMac, 13-inch MacBook Pro, 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro, and launched the Mac Studio.

It’s now more than two years since Apple revealed, in June 2020, that it would be transitioning all its Macs from Intel processors to its own silicon within two years.
