I seems that the new MacBook Air with M1 can't play HDR content on external displays. :(
- ArchOversight 6y agoWhat makes you say that the MacBook Air with M1 can't play HDR content on external displays? The MacBook Air with M1 has two USB 4 ports. USB 4 is Thunderbolt 3 + some extra bits. See https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201736 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201736 for information.
- zimpenfish 6y agoThe "Mac models that support HDR" table on https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210980 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210980 says that MacBook Airs introduced after 2018 can only do SDR on external displays - if it doesn't include the 2020 Air, they'd surely have called that out?
- ArchOversight 6y agoYou are right. I totally missed the SDR/HDR distinction because it is a single character difference. My apologies!
- qubitcoder 6y agoIt could be a function of their integrated graphics approach with the M1 (SoC), as opposed to simply having the right ports. That's just a guess, however.
- xenonite 6y agois this practically confirmed?
