A bug soon to be fixed
However, a slight flaw was spotted by our colleagues from the specialized siteiMoreduring a test. You have to be careful, but HDR content in certain blue tones is likely to result in some bright white spots that appear almost white. These are compression artifacts.

As detailed01Net, this concern is not present on other OLED screens such as those of the iPhone 15 Pro, the Steam Deck OLED, or the 11-inch iPad Pro (LCD). We can therefore clearly consider the thesis of an isolated incident, especially since the latter appeared while viewing a scene from the seriesStranger Thingsfrom Netflix. It is therefore possible that the image processing engine makes a mistake in displaying the light points in this area.
Anyway, and this is the good news, Apple has taken this bug into account and announced that a software fix will soon resolve it.
The M4 chip impresses
As a reminder, the M4 chip present in these new devices displays impressive figures. According to the Geekbench app, it reached a record performance of 3,810 points in multi-core compared to only 3,087 points for a MacBook Pro equipped with an M3 processor, which is also very technologically advanced.
