https://wells.dev/ Not much to look at yet since it's still new, but I'm hoping to post more regularly. Topics won't be restricted to just mobile dev stuff even though that's where most of my experience

Though I’d love to see the price of these specs to come down that quickly I’m not optimistic they will. Those MicroOLED panels in particular are extremely difficult to manufacture with terrible yield. I don’t know that a killer app for it e

Certainly text won’t be as comfortable to read as on a high DPI display, but it’ll at least be usable, which is a notable step up from where things stand now. I own a Quest 2 and though it’s fine for gaming I can’t imagine using it for work

This may be a case of the mental model not matching the technical model. Under macOS, windows aren’t program instances, they’re just windows — they’re all hosted by the same single parent program instance. It’s technically possible to open

Its fidelity is considerably higher with a 4k+ MicroOLED panel for each eye, which eliminates screen door effect, aliasing, etc making use cases that involve reading a lot of text in it more feasible. Its passthrough is also extremely low l

Also helping reflections on the Studio Display is its antiglare coating which is unusually good for a glossy display, at least when looking at it head-on. It’s one of the parts of the monitor where Apple went the extra mile. Previous Apple

Fully agree, at that price the picture needs to be very close to perfect.

Slight correction, the monitor will run at full resolution (6144x3456), but with 24-bit color instead of 30-bit. To get 30-bit over Thunderbolt one has to run it at 6016x3384. So effectively, you get full PPI or full color but not both.

I also bought one of these, but ended up returning it. The technical aspects of this review are interesting, especially the wide range of machines tested. I finished writing a review of my own[0] a few days ago, which is less technical but
