Our best guess is that the new resolutions are for the upcoming M1X MacBook Pro models. An interesting thing to note here is that these two new resolutions have been marked “Retina,” which is only the case for official Apple Mac and Mac displays suggesting these are for unreleased Mac or MacBooks. This suggests that not only the MacBooks will have a bigger display, but they’ll also pack in more pixels making it close to a 4K display.īased on these numbers, 9to5Mac suggests the pixel density per inch will increase from 227 PPI to 257 PPI.Īlong with the list of MacBook and Mac resolutions, the System Information app also includes display resolutions that are supported by the operating system, and not only for Apple displays. The 13-inch M1 MacBook Pro Apple sells has a resolution of 2560 x 1600 whereas the 16-inch Intel variant has a 3072 x 1920 display. Currently, Apple doesn’t make a Mac with a built-in Retina display based on these resolutions. The two new resolutions listed in the System Information app are 3024 x 1964 pixels and 3456 x 2234 pixels.
macOS Monterey’s latest beta comes with two new listings for display resolutions for the System Information app, which are probably the upcoming M1X 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models. Apple’s much-awaited M1X MacBook Pro doesn’t seem that far as the references to some unreleased MacBook models have been found in the latest macOS Monterey beta.
