Compared to other professional displays in its class, Apple’s all-new Pro Display XDR aims to stand apart from the crowd. Featuring a 32-inch Retina 6K panel with P3 wide / 10-bit color, an extreme 1,600 nits of peak brightness, a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio and a superwide viewing angle, priced at $4,999, or $5,998 with a Pro Stand. “Pro Display XDR is the world’s best pro display and the perfect companion to the all-new Mac Pro.

Boasting edge-to-edge glass and narrow, 9-millimeter borders in a stunning, aluminum enclosure, this display boasts a highly functional and flexible design. The specially designed Pro Stand ($999) has an intricately engineered arm that perfectly counterbalances the display so it feels virtually weightless, enabling you to easily place it into any position.

To better reflect what the eye can see in the real world, Pro Display XDR takes high dynamic range to a whole new level by using a direct back-lighting system with a large array of LEDs that produce 1,000 nits of full-screen brightness and 1,600 nits of peak brightness, far surpassing that of a normal display. Plus, an advanced thermal system uses its aluminum lattice pattern as a heat sink to keep things cool while sustaining 1,000 nits of full-screen brightness indefinitely, something that has never been possible before on a display at this price point.
