Although reviews of the new MacBook Pro M4 have been mostly positive, it seems that Apple has a big surprise in store for this new model: the use of Quantum Dot display technology.
It seems that the MacBook Pro M4 is even more impressive than expected. According to screen analyst Ross Young, Apple opted for Quantum Dot film rather than KSF red phosphor film used on previous generations of MacBook Pro.
However, Apple did not mention this technological development in its official communication. A surprising choice from the firm, known for highlighting the slightest improvements in its products.

What are the benefits of Quantum Dot technology on the MacBook Pro M4 screen?
The move to Quantum Dot technology brings two notable improvements. First of all, better color reproductionsince Quantum Dot film offers a wider and more accurate color gamut than KSF. Afterwards, better movement performance. The tests carried out show that the pixel response time is significantly faster on the M4 model.
In the past, Apple had preferred KSF film, considered more effective and above all free of cadmium, a toxic element present in the first generations of Quantum Dot. But recent progress has removed this obstacle, paving the way for adoption by the Apple brand.
With this discreet update, Apple once again demonstrates its ongoing concern to offer its users very high quality screensas has been the case on iPhones for many generations. The MacBook Pro M4 thus benefits from an even more efficient display, without this being reflected in official communication.
A way for the firm to maintain a certain mystery around its innovations, while continuing to offer ever more technologically advanced products.
