Studio Display XDR will add full calibration support in a future update

The first reviews of the new Apple XDR studio screen were published yesterday, providing our first in-depth look on the mini-LED panel, 120Hz refresh rate and more.

in a review for The edgeJohn Higgins discovered that there is still one Studio Display XDR feature to come: support for full calibration.

New Studio Display XDR feature is yet to come

Apple resellers That Studio Display XDR offers a ton of different reference modes, ranging from Apple’s own modes to Adobe’s and even new DICOM medical imaging presets.

As Higgins explains in The edge However, in our review, the factory calibration of the Studio Display

However, in the future, Studio Display XDR will have full calibration support:

The brightness at the lower end of the grayscale was too high, so shadows aren’t as deep as they should be and some darker colors are too bright. But this is with the factory calibration. You will also be able to calibrate the Studio Display XDR, something I hope every professional or studio does. There is currently only a fine calibration setting available (for white point and luminance only), but full calibration (covering white point, primary colors, luminance and gamma) will be enabled with a later update.

There is no timeline on when this update will be available. Higgins too saw a white paper for Studio Display XDR with more details on calibration options and the color system.

Studio Display XDR will launch tomorrow, March 11. It is currently available for Reserve for $3,299.
