The new M4 MacBook Pros that launched last month have an unadvertised change with new quantum dot displays, according to display industry analyst Ross Young and reported by 9to5Mac. Young posted on X that Apple is adopting quantum dot displays for the first time and that it's using a version of the film that is free of cadmium,

Apple’s recently launched MacBook Pro with the new M4 chips apparently come with a previously unannounced display upgrade. According to Ross Young of Display Supply Chain Consultants, the M4 MacBook Pro models have a quantum dot (QD) film in their display, replacing the red KSF phosphor film used in previous versions.

The M4 MacBook Pro models may be featuring quantum dot technology. The jury is still out on whether these displays are better than before.

Apple's new M4 MacBook Pro has a significant upgrade to the display, and the company somehow forgot to mention it.

Big Apple display news, they have adopted quantum dots for the first time. The latest MacBook Pro’s (M4) use a quantum dot (QD) film rather than a red KSF phosphor film. Young says this provides the latest models with two advantages over earlier models.
