I do visual work (graphic/UI design, photography, video editing) along with programming and there is no display with the resolution and color fidelity of the XDR at its price point. I got one shortly after release, and if it stopped working today I'd buy another one in the amount of time it takes me to click "Submit" on the Apple Store. It's just that good.

When I look at a high resolution scan of a large format negative on it, it feels like looking at it directly on a light table. It's insane. My only complaint is the local dimming, which shows its limit when you're doing fine white on black linework in a dark room. Hopefully we'll get a pro OLED display of that quality in the next decade which will solve that one issue.

The only other piece of hardware I've spent money on that comes close of giving me the same satisfaction is my Happy Hacking Keyboard, which I've used for over a decade now and I hope I will keep using until I cannot use computers altogether anymore (I have a few spares just in case).

Thank for that. I used to be into photography and I did just once try shooting raw images with my Canon and view/edit.
