Apple is working on a new monitor that, for the moment, is still a mystery. While the rumors pointed to the arrival of a second generation of the Display Studio with mini-read technologya new filtration suggests that the company has even more ambitious plans in the field of external screens.
According to Journalist Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, Apple is developing an internally identified device with the J527 code name, which is unknown in which market segment would act and the approach it would have.
New Apple monitors
Gurman's report indicates that Apple has at least Two new monitors: one of them is the expected evolution of the Display Studio, with a better backup and possibly mini-read technology, which could be launched to end of this year OA early 2026. However, the second monitor, the mysterious J527, could be something completely different.
It is speculated that this enigmatic model could be a New version of the Pro Display XDRApple's professional reference monitor, which has been renewed since its launch in 2019. The current Pro Display XDR, with its 6K panel and its price of 5,499 euros, remains one of the most advanced options in the market, but has been lagging behind the latest technologies on high -end screens. Apple could be preparing a successor with improvements in HDR, more local attenuation areas and an even more spectacular glow to meet the needs of all those who are dedicated to the audiovisual world.
Another possibility is that Apple is developing two different versions From the new generation of the Display Studio and, when the time comes, decide which of them to launch to the market. The difference could be in the technology used, with a more affordable model by maintaining traditional LED backight and another with mini -led or even OLED technology, which would mark a great advance in image quality.
New Studio Display in 2025
If Apple decides to bet on OLED in one of its new monitors, we would be facing a paradigm shift on its external screens. The company has so far maintained LCD technology in its monitors, even in high -end such as the Pro Display XDR, but the Jump to Oled It would allow to offer pure blacks, a contrast that has no comparison and lower energy consumption. This would raise the experience of use of creative professionals and also make the screen more efficient in terms of energy, something Apple is looking for in recent times, according to their sustainability plans.
The launch of Studio Display of 2022 It was a more accessible alternative to the Pro Display XDR, but its IPS panel with conventional LED backight was criticized for its lack of local attenuation and high price compared to other market options. Apple seems determined to correct these aspects with its next generation of monitors, although it is still about to see what characteristics they end up reaching the final model.
The great unknown is when we will see these new monitors in the market. While the second generation of the Display Studio could arrive at the end of this year or beginning of the next, the J527 model remains unknown. Apple could announce it at the WWDC 2025 if it is a product focused on the professional market, or reserve it for a special event later.
