Display

The device’s display features mini-LED technology and houses a 14.2″ Liquid Retina XDR display. Macbook Pro 14” delivers up to 1,000 nits of sustained, full-screen brightness, a high 1,600 nits of peak brightness, a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio, and a billion colors. The Liquid Retina XDR display can handle the extreme dynamic range of HDR content, providing detailed shadows, brilliant specular highlights, deeper blacks, and vivid colors. The MacBook Pro 14-inch 2021’s display is less than 4 mm thin, achieved by having seven films and diffusers that mix and shape the light efficiently. Moreover, the oxide thin film transistor (TFT) allows pixels to charge twice as fast as before.

Equipped with ProMotion technology, the MacBook Pro automatically varies the refresh rate to match the motion of your onscreen content. This helps preserve battery life while making tasks feel more fluid and responsive. The display can have up to a 120 Hz refresh rate. As a Video editor, you will also have the option to lock in a refresh rate that is optimal for your footage.
