Yeah I watched it, and there is a "pro" (freelancer) who already bought some of them trying to rationalise to us why you would need those. Then hes repeating over and over this would be a choice for mid size studios. But for this budget you got better options, dont you?
Yeah I loved those displays, I don't even own a Mac anymore but I still use one at work with an adapter, the picture is excellent. And they seem to work without a driver now in Windows, not sure what happened they just kinda... Suddenly did after an update (back in 2018 I think), now I can adjust the brightness/etc without Bootcamp installed.
@@datachu I used them daily at school for 3 years. I'm thinking about grabbing a used one for my video editor/GF. For about 200$ used they look to be a good deal
zollotech hey man. Love your videos. You should check out HDTV test video review of this monitor. The “pro” display still has all of the issues that come with IPS displays.
He's less of an Apple fangirl than he use to be. I mean, some weeks back He talked about _Linux_ and discusses hackintoshes because even _he_ knows for most people who want to use Apple's OS, the hardware investment is a big pill to swallow that many, unsurprisingly can't.
With the indy-filmmaker market becoming so big, there is a shift away from those older brands that Denver mentions. I would say the closest feeling competitor to the Apple XDR would be some of the new Neon line of displays from Atomos. It is priced way less than those (of similar size), but the Neon line isn’t built specifically for Macs with a the ports and what not that the XDR has.
Great video! It’s nice seeing someone post something about this display and talk to an actual colorist and not just talk about how this is good for consumer level stuff.
Hollywood post production houses: has many 40,000 dollar reference monitors The theatre: one terrible 2K projector that seems like it was stolen from a primary school.
Simply the best video about the XDR, period. Just like with the Mac Pro videos, you manage to combine the facts everyone else is repeating in their videos with good and relatable insights. Top notch!
Allan Sh No one would really see any difference. Meanwhile the Asus has double the local dimming as the Pro display and a refreshrate of 120 Hz with the same 1600 nits of peak brightness. It’s gonna be cheaper.
How close are you even sitting to your monitor? On a laptop I already don’t see any difference between 1080p and 4k. Most nowadays content is still at 4K. If you want 8K you should get the Dell Ultrasharp 8K monitor.
All praise Quinn, the Teller of Truths in a world of Apple fans who are too blind to product shortcomings because of a brand name. Thanks for always keeping it real and snazzy.
Why are you not at 1M sub yet? The quality of these video is top notch. Also you actually seem to understand what your are talking about (unlikely most techtubers)
It's still slightly smaller than the 30 inch 16:10 Apple Cinema Display that I still use. Still a beautiful monitor all these years later. I got it for free, but in 2005 it must have been amazing, 1440p IPS in 2005. And it works perfectly with Windows!
You probably can install the Bootcamp utility to non Apple hardware. I personally have it installed on my custom desktop computer, so that the old Apple keyboard I use with it can utilize the volume keys and have the correct keyboard layout. You can't trigger the installer by opening the normal file, but if you launch it as administrator using CMD (or one of the install scripts in the sub folders that contain all the drivers, can't remember how the process goes) the install script will just install Bootcamp utility without checking the hardware configuration.
Those issues mentioned regarding color shift means the monitor is not good enough for photographers who do prints . There are several other brands in the $400 to $2000 range that offer 99% Adobe RGB and 100% sRGB plus HDR with 4K. I really don't see the point of spending more than $2,000 for a monitor you can use to create professional quality content. Video editors need to only work in Rec. 709 or sRGB and there are far more affordable monitors that can achieve 100% of those gamuts.
The colour shift seems to be on the side. When correcting images, the palettes cover the corner vignette and side colour shift. Perhaps not as hopeless as it seems at first sight.
This was the best slap, kick, and punch, you’ve taken at Apple Quinn. And it made for a great video because you picked them up after the beating. In a Snazzy kind of way. ;) Great video and thank you for doing this with Denver Riddle. That guy is cool.
This looks like a nice general purpose display, but isn't scaling not desirable when coloring (IE: you want native resolution of whatever the final output is)? Also, notice that when he mentions the FALD issues with star fields, we didn't see the monitor displaying star fields...
I really really really wanna see someone actually compare the XDR display to some of these 40k monitors in their true production environment. Like "I have this 40k reference monitor on my desk and I put a xdr there instead." Did it just replace it? Does it take extra tools to make it work? Does the workflow change? Does it actually make sense to do a replacement like that? Are people who were seriously looking at buying a 10k+ production monitor now buying xdr's instead? Everyone just blabs about the spec sheets and their impressions, but does it make sense in the "production houses" everyone seems to be talking about. Also what was the colorist in this video using before the XDR's?
One thing I fear is this "visually lossless" compression. Color critical work need mathematically lossless compression. In the cinema/video/TV industry every codecs that are visually lossless means "good enought to look at" (from a cosumer stand point) not "good enough to work with" (from a professional stand point).
From what I can find on the vesa website, DSC is not mathematically lossless. It uses some already used mathematically lossless compression that we can found on other standards, and other technics that are not mathematically lossless. So it's a no-no for color critical work. it also induce a greater delay between the source and the display but at least the delay is constant.
Already two Apple monitor stands have been replaced by other VESA stands in our studio, because of ergonomical complaints. Now I have two thousand dollar of monitor stands in the storage room next to my office, probably more to follow and they will remain there for years.
The video is good, but I wish the pro person does more than fancy b-roll. I mean this is the *ultimate* review. At least you could get him talk more about what’s his thought. Not just the software workaround.
If they were going to go back to an integer scale on the Macbooks, the 16" seems like it would have been the chance to do so, but alas, it didn't. I always notice the slight non integer scaling blur too.
its a budget Reference monitor I would say. Its no where near the quality of a top tier reference monitor. But it just makes it in the base tier of reference monitors.
Lol, I don’t understand most of what you said in this video. But it’s a testament to the quality of your content that I still enjoyed watching. Not that my opinion matters much, but, I think that’s pretty cool.
I am a software developer and bought the XDR display. We developers sit for a monitor almost all day, so the quality of the monitor really matters a lot. (Contrast, sharpness) I have been using the XDR display for 4 weeks now and I am absolutely satisfied. I waited a long time for such a monitor and would buy it again immediately .. Maybe someone should make videos about Apple products that are not related to UA-camr.
"Nitpick"? 100 dollars stands do more things and in a better way, I really wouldn't call legitimate complaints about a *1000 dollars stand* "nitpicking"
The pro-XDR display is not really "pro" it handles low light terribly due to it being ips and the amount of bloom is insane. The reference sony monitor thats $43,000 is still worth forking over the cash as its more color accurate, contrast, no bloom, and actually serves as a pro display.
It was pretty much a given the XDR wouldn't do well against Flanders and Eizo's $30,000 displays. It would have been nice to hear how it compared to the $6,000 Eizo and Flanders models instead. Nonetheless, great review.
To summarize Denver’s thoughts: it’s awesome at $6K and performs favorably to the Eizo and Flanders market save for the more fine tuning those monitors have and the built in scopes and SDI support. That’s just a no-go on XDR. At least until the Blackmagic box arrives. That said, Denver seems to think software scopes are good enough now that hardware ones don’t really matter all that much.
Hi, i do have the amazon basics monitor arm… would you trust it to hold such an expensive display or would you get the Ergotron monitor arm ? Thank you
Snazzy Labs thanks I think I’ll get the ergotron seems more sturdy than amazon ... also there are so many delays on this monitor, Ordered mine December 26 and still no show. I’m pretty sure it’s got to do with higher than anticipated demand and China virus. When did you order yours ? Or did find it in store ? Canada has nothing here !!! Sucks
Just clicked on this from my home feed recommendations. I have no idea why this is flagged as a "fundraiser" video, and UA-cam is complaining, "Sorry, you can't donate in this country or region yet", which is a clear indication of that. Oh my.
TBH, I think that once we start getting into the multi-thousand dollar price tag, we have a right to nitpick, and my main gripe is how it doesn't come with a VESA mount as part of the body. Something that damn near every other display on the market does.
Could this be compared to something like ASUS's Pro Art monitor line? Also i saw someone extract the Monitor Utility from the bootcamp driver installer that you can get on the Apple Website.
Thanks for inviting Denver over! I learned color grading from his videos and courses and he is a true pro I’m his niche. Great video as always! Do you use a promoter?
7:20 AH YES, but of course. everyone normally looks at their monitor from the same level as their keyboard, and with the fucking monitor facing up. How biased can one get?
I haven’t seen the XDR in real life yet but what I’ve heard from pros is that it’s nowhere near the accuracy of what an actual reference monitor is capable of.
The pro display xdr is only focused on developer who are in field of graphics and animation. As they require minimum disruption and better output which pro display xdr can help them focus but if we go with backend development rather than graphics we need power packed with stability. So they have focuse primarily on verg narrow market that will give them definite profit with almost no competition rather than focusing on majority where they can achieve sales but won't able go keep there apple profits stable for long period of time.
Whether a Pro Display XDR is good enough for you is going to mostly depend on who's paying for it. If Disney is paying your bills it's not going to cut it. If you're freelancing for indie films it's great. If you look at text all day and all that color stuff is just icing on the 6K cake, look no further.
I’m not saying that I want to buy this monitor and the Apple stand, but if I did, I’d want $700 wheels on that stand. ,Amy people say Apple is too expensive, I say it’s not expensive enough. ;-)
It’s funny I go back to so many UA-camrs who spoke about this display when it came out in 2019. Now all those content creators have beards… the pandemic man…
Thank you for giving me a real review. Logically, everything you said makes perfect sense. Most other reviews I've seen makes it seems like Apple somehow made a magical display. Apple knows how to market to the UA-cam generation better than any other company, and it's not even close.
i still have the original 30" Cinema Display and it works freakin fantastic, i'm using it now. 14 years old and still working. Original cost was $2600. So maybe $5000 and hopefully 14 years of life will still be a good investment ( if it is built as well ).
If I were rich, I’d be the perfect market for this. I’m a hobbyist filmmaker, a software developer by trade, a photographer as another hobby. But I’m still studying CS so no way I can afford this for my hobby films... Though having the portrait mode for long source code files and 6k wide for side several side-by-side source files would be great, along with working really well for the hobbies
When the thumbnail says 13:37 but the video is 13:36.. I see what you TRIED to do there, but UA-cam had other plans.
I FEEL MEGA JIPPED
its youtube, it does it to every video
It's 13:37 for me.
On mobile it's 13:37
What’s the significance of 1337?

i still have the original 30" Cinema Display and it works freakin fantastic, i'm using it now. 14 years old and still working. Original cost was $2600. So maybe $5000 and hopefully 14 years of life will still be a good investment ( if it is built as well ).
You're really stepping up your game, nice video.
5:25 did you stick the film back on just for b-roll? 🤣
No that’s how it shipped if you can believe it!
Snazzy Labs jeez! Those bubbles are bad!
If I were rich, I’d be the perfect market for this. I’m a hobbyist filmmaker, a software developer by trade, a photographer as another hobby. But I’m still studying CS so no way I can afford this for my hobby films... Though having the portrait mode for long source code files and 6k wide for side several side-by-side source files would be great, along with working really well for the hobbies
Whats the name of that screen saver he has playing in the background? I really like it, btw I'm using windows 10 :D
This is why you're my favorite apple youtuber. All the rest keeps justifying that damn stand without even knowing the stands market.
