Between this and the iOS 17 standby feature, it seems like Apple likes the idea of displays showing information instead of just being black. Not really sure why they wouldn’t just make this a macOS feature though, dumb to limit this to some sort of smart monitor instead of just using the computer it is connected to.
Well Apple tends to point the direction they want to go….
The display has an iPhone chip in it.
They have talked about the new display mode for iPhones when they are charging
They have had the always on mode where the screen only refreshes once per second.
Yeah it kinda makes sense that they would make the screen saver a bit more useful
Iphone chip is mad overkill WTF that’s like several hundred dollars worth of processing power
they also have tons of them just laying around, gives them a really powerful, efficient display controller.
The current studio display already has the A13, I’d expect all future monitors to come with with iPhone SoC.
And they can sell it for hundreds more than that on top. There’s the real reason.
