Apple has announced the new Pro Display XDR a 32 inch LCD panel.
The new display, which starts at $4,999 suggested MSRP, is aimed at professional editors who are working on high resolution images or 4k video and packs 10-bit color.
Here’s a rundown on the new hardware:
Pro Display XDR Features Largest Retina Display Ever
Featuring a 32-inch LCD panel with a 6016 x 3384 Retina 6K resolution with more than 20 million pixels, Pro Display XDR delivers a super-sharp, high-resolution viewing experience with nearly 40 percent more screen real estate than a Retina 5K display. With a P3 wide color gamut and true 10-bit color for over 1 billion colors, pros will have a more true-to-life viewing experience — critical for video and photo editing, 3D animation or color grading. Pro Display XDR also features the industry’s best polarizer technology, delivering a superwide, color-accurate, off-axis viewing angle, so now multiple people can view more accurate content simultaneously. To manage reflected light, Pro Display XDR has an industry-leading anti-reflective coating and offers an innovative new matte option called nano-texture, with glass etched at the nanometer level for low reflectivity and less glare.

Niche Gamer’s Take: While most of our readers will likely never use this, for a design studio, or high end video editor, photographer or other similar creative type can see a great purpose, as monitors with similar feature sets can be exponentially more with the contrast and brightness being rather incredible compared to most consumer grade monitors.
