New iPad Pro OLED screens have a HDR color bug
Software, apparently. A relatively simple fix, it looks like.netrox said:It looks like a calculation error causing blown highlights in blues.

iPhone 16 Pro may get Apple's brightest display yet
Quantum dit technology isn’t a panacea. Samsung uses it for some Tv screens, but not for their phone, tablet or computer OLED displays. It’s very difficult to get that tech down to the needs of small displays. Phone and watch OLEDs are a different technology that that for larger displays. If it could have been easily done, then it would have been done already, but it’s complex and difficult in smaller displays with their very high pixel density, much more dense with far smaller pixels than in the much larger Tv screens.wikimiki said:I think many commentators have missed the point.
Quantum Dots would provide a brighter screen without a need for more power.
Therefore, for a given brightness, the iPhone would use less power.

Siri is fine for basic use. But Apple’s problem is that their concern with privacy means that Siri can leverage out private info when it goes looking for answers off the phone. Maybe we’ll see an improvement when the WWDC is here June 10th.jdw said:All fine and well, but somebody needs to remind Apple that SIRI isn't so bright.
Yeah, yeah, I know about the forthcoming presentation about AI, but I will believe it only when I see it. SIRI is basically an idiot right now, and it's so bad that display brightness really can't make up for it. -
Apple's new iPad Pro gets M4 power, advanced Tandem OLED screens
Ok, my wife’s iPad Pro just came, as did my Magic Keyboard and Pencil Pro. The first thing I was interested to find out was whether the screen is larger, as it’s being called 13”. Well, guess what folks? It IS! Not by much as we’re talking 12.9” to 13”. But length is 0.0625” longer. That’s a 1/16” for those who are decimally challenged. Many people who should know better on YouTube, the internet and other places, are saying that Apple just finally decided to round it off, but that’s not true.The other thing is that the old iPad doesn’t work on the new keyboard as the sizes are slightly different in the way the back of the keyboard is made and the magnets don’t align, so the three contacts on the right side can’t be held in place. I suppose it’s possible to do something stupid such as tape it in place or something, but really…
As far as the Pencil Pro goes, it’s weird. They did move the magnets. So if you move the Pencil slightly to the right, the right magnet holds and it swivels around that. Move it to the left and the left magnet holds and it swivels around that. As I say, weird. No matter where you hold it, the iPad doesn’t recognize it as it does the older version. No charge percentage comes up. It doesn’t work at all. Even as a conventional stylus. Bummer, but that’s progress I suppose.
My wife, who is far more patient than I am, had decided to set hers up after dinner, which is an hour from now. She’s playing some role player game with, as she puts it, 39 of her BFFs around the world, so she wants to finish that episode first anyway. Oh well, I’ll try hers with these accessories later tonight.

And what are all of those issues, pray tell? Since you claim to know of them, tell us what they are.ITGUYINSD said:
What about all the other issues that are "a known issue" to Apple on the new iPad that they aren't saying anything about? Next couple of days too?40domi said:Photo very poor.
Not a big deal, it will be fixed by the end of this week
