How accurate is the color on the Apple flat-panel displays?
One of the major challenges for managing color accuracy on an LCD-based display is the inherent viewing-angle limitation. On most LCD displays, users can experience severe color shifts if they view images that are even just a little bit off-axis. Apple has greatly reduced this problem with the Apple Cinema HD Display, the Apple Cinema Display, and the 17-inch Apple Studio Display. These displays use an advanced technology that delivers up to 160-degree viewing angles in both vertical and horizontal dimensions. The benefit of this wide viewing angle is that the displays deliver color uniformity that rivals any display available today. All the Apple displays also support true 24-bit color to deliver 16.7 million colors in a broad color gamut that is comparable to that of any CRT display. And images appear more vivid and lifelike on Apple flat-panel displays because with twice the brightness, the color gamut is perceptually larger than that of a traditional CRT display of equivalent size.
