Apple Says Pro Display XDR and 2021 MacBook Pro Can Experience Limited Brightness in High Temperatures

This thing nearly never heats up. I think unless it's put under the sun for an extended period of time, it will be fine.

Agreed, video conf used to crank up the fans and heat up the skillet of a CPU when I was Intel. Apple Silicon is cool in every situation for me so far.

To be clear, though, they are saying if you get warnings under that temperature, then definitely get it looked at. They aren’t saying it will happen over that temperature.

Yup I don’t think I suggested otherwise and thought it would be interesting to hear peoples feedback who live in places with those temperatures… weird comment

So you run your laptop (regardless of brand) at full brightness all the time?

If you would've actually READ what apple said, its running the screen at full (1600 nits) for multiple hours under warm ambient temps that will cause the caution sign to happen.

It's nice when one reads the actual article instead of spew nonsense for no reason

If you would've actually READ what apple said, Apple never mentions full brightness or 1600 nits or multiple hours anywhere in the support article that is referenced - https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT212877

They instead mention 'very bright content' for 'an extended period' of time. What is very bright content? What is an extended period of time? *Shrug* at least based on this Apple support document.

Well I keep my rooms under 10°C so I am sure it'll be running good most of the time. Except maybe in summer where there is nothing I can do to keep the house under 15°C.

I would love to have your HVAC system, more so the environment you live in.
