Apple Macbook Pro Monitor Calibration

I've only had the Eizo CG279X for a couple of weeks but love it so far. It works great with my MacBook Pro 15 mid 2015. I had to buy an extra Mini DisplayPort to regular Displayport cable from Amazon to connect and works perfectly. I got the 279X rather than the 277 so that when I upgrade to a newer MacBook Pro with Thunderbolt 3 it will connect directly with a TB3 cable supplied. I ran the internal hardware calibration on the monitor but I'm not sure if I should also do a separate calibration with my Datacolor Spyder 5 or not for the computer graphics card? It's nice to be reasonably sure that I'm color correcting my photos in Capture One to the right standard with this monitor. Several of the ones I calibrated before with my laptop screen seem to be way off. I think I've found the best monitor for me. I've recently become aware that for video it's best to calibrate to a separate TV monitor rather than in the GUI for Final Cut Pro but for now I'm going with a single monitor setup using the 279X. I don't like having to move the cursor between screens with dual monitors. I'm also considering a Tangent rollerball surface for faster editing. No audio with this display so I dug out a pair of old Sony computer speakers that work well.

using this to connect a new Macbook Pro laptop to an older Apple 24 monitor. Monitor still looks great, and this adapter works perfectly to prolong the life of this 10-year old monitor.

Working great to attach my 24 Viewsonic monitor to a MacBook Pro at much lower cost than Apple solutions.

Was skeptical since it wasn’t apple works great with my 2019 MacBook Pro and HP Monitor. Also was relieved it supports charging so well. Great buy to save some cash

I've always purchased AppleCare for my MacBook Pro. Through the years, I've had Apple replace my monitor, motherboard, and various other problems without the slightest inconvenience. If it weren't for AppleCare, I would have paid thousands in repair fees. For a traveler, this is invaluable protection.

I’m running this beautiful monitor from a 2023 MacBook Pro, with the Apple M2 Pro chip, and couldn’t be happier. Installation was simplicity itself. It is positioned at a ninety-degree angle to a very large east-facing window, and the standard glass performs brilliantly for me, without glare or annoying reflections. The Nano Texture glass would have been an unnecessary expenditure in this particular situation. My order was filled within hours, and arrived overnight with free shipping. Perfect.

I bought two of these to use with my MacBook Pro M1 Max as a video editing workstation. ***Note that the only way I was able to display 4K at 60 hertz on both monitors simultaneously was to plug BOTH monitors directly to the MacBook via USB-C to DisplayPort cables. Once I did that and stopped trying to get them to work through the Thunderbolt 4 Dock I have, everything looks excellent.*** The resolution is great, as I can have Premiere Pro open on both monitors with one of the two showing the footage in the program window at close to actual size, which helps to see all the detail of the 4K image while editing. Colors look really good, and while this isn't a reference monitor designed for color grading Hollywood movies, it's plenty accurate for my videography work. Aside from video editing, text is super sharp and crisp, and photos and websites look excellent. Since it's an LCD, black levels are never going to look as inky black as they do on an OLED display, but that's to be expected. You can always get a small OLED TV to use as a makeshift client reference monitor. I originally wanted the Apple Studio Display, but at $1600 for one monitor, it was way too expensive for me. On Black Friday, I was able to snag TWO of these Asus ProArt 27 displays for under $800. That's less than half of ONE Apple display! Sure, it's not made of shiny aluminum, but who cares? Image quality is all I need, and this delivers in spades. Plus, they come with VESA mounting holes in the back as standard, so I was able to place them on a two-monitor VESA mounting arm and free up a bunch of space on my desk. I know the Apple display is 5K and this one is 4K, but two 4K monitors side by side get me way more resolution and work space than one 5K monitor. All in all, I heartily recommend this Asus ProArt 4K monitor to anyone looking for a high-res 27 LCD for content creation and general computing on a Mac (as long as you plug it in directly and not through a docking station).

Apple MacBook Pro's have always delivered, and this one is no exception.

This product is perfect for my 13 Apple MacBook Pro.
