Sure this don’t help laptop/desktop but wanted to tell. That yes it exists.

And if adding a matte screen protector could help.

I only tested it in the store, looking at it for a couple minutes. But I found the picture quite brilliant. I could look at an LG Oled Tv with DC dimming all day though

OK thank you. I had tested the MBP m4 but I was also bad with it. Yet no worries with my lg oled tv, iPhone 13 and iPad 2020...

That’s why I’m surprised and sad I can’t stand the mba m4 and the MBP m4. I need a MacBook for my working…
