Do you have ideas for how to test it and find out definitively in person? I haven't found a way to confirm one way or another.
The Graphics/Displays page in System Information unfortunately says nothing about colors, only resolution (https://github.com/shurcooL/home/assets/1924134/af4b19a3-b859-472b-a9ce-80d59e4f01e1 https://github.com/shurcooL/home/assets/1924134/af4b19a3-b85...).
When looking at a 16-bit PNG of a white to black gradient, I'm not able to visually spot any banding even when zooming in. It's fairly easy to spot steps when looking at a 8-bit PNG version of the same gradient. But the same happens on the built-in display despite it supposedly having only 8-bit color ("support for millions of colors").

You might want to try out SwitchResX and see what it says about the screen. In some menu, there is color depth information about the screen. But I don't know if it is actually accurate and where the application gets this info from. https://www.madrau.com https://www.madrau.com
