The MacRumors Show: Rene Ritchie Talks Mac Studio Performance and Studio Display Controversy
Acclaimed Apple content creator Rene Ritchie joins us on The MacRumors Show podcast this week to reflect on the all-new Mac Studio and Studio Display now that users have had a chance to spend some time with the machines.
The eighth episode of
The MacRumors Show takes a look at the Mac Studio and Studio Display's real-world performance, ports, and pricing, as we try to get to the bottom of exactly who these devices are meant for. We also take a closer look at the
mixed to negative reaction to the Studio Display and discuss whether it is justified, and cast an eye toward
what could be next for Apple silicon Macs and Apple external displays.
