Coding, writing and some graphical design every day on my 5k LG monitor and I think it's perfect.Technically speaking yes, but they never worked. I have that display… and regret buying it everyday.
I think it's interesting that they are supporting a monitor that they don't even sell anymore. Kudos to them for doing that though.
don't do this
It's laurel
Right, I'm familiar with what it's trying to do and the theory behind it. It does make sense if the user prefers a screen that matches their surroundings. Generally speaking, for me, no matter the light I'm in, it just adds a warmer tint of varying strength. I prefer a cooler look (I find even an out-of-the-box iPhone to be sometimes too "yellow"), so like you said-- I've just disabled it.If you are in yellow light it will match the light around you. I find it to be easier on the eyes, dosn't turn it into the old good paper but definitelly easy, if you are used to cold gama you can just disable it.
Still haven't really understood the appeal of True Tone. It just turns things yellow for me in most situations.
Buyer's remorse can truly suck if you feel that strongly about what you bought and can't get past the daily reminder.Technically speaking yes, but they never worked. I have that display… and regret buying it everyday.
I see what you mean. I have it turned off on my Pro and X because I feel like I'm losing color accuracy with it on, and that thought bothers me (when really, it shouldn't unless I'm doing something that requires said accuracy) lol. Weird hang up of mine, I guess.For my iPad Pro and my X, it keeps the display from turning into an obtrusive blue glow all over the place when I'm viewing things in a warmly lit room, especially when that ambient light is dim. Previously, the light coming off my screen would look almost fluorescent, and be quite harsh, under those conditions. Today, it's much better.
It's a subtle thing, sure, but one I find quite pleasing.
I love True Tone so much and every display is gonna have this tech in the future. Anxiously awaiting my upgrade from a 7 Plus to an XI Plus in Sept so I can finally get that feature on my phone. It makes the screen so much more natural looking in warmer light - I'll be comfortably using my iPad Pro in a room with dim, warm indoor lighting and then pick my phone up and it's all jarringly, disgustingly blue. Same with Apple Watch, it's way too cool-hued of a screen at night, it actually hurts my eyes sometimes. This discomforting experience needs to be eliminated from tech and I'm so glad Apple is taking the initiative on it. Calling it now, all screens in the future will adapt to their environment, presenting content in a natural, properly color-balanced way relative to the user's surroundings. I'd say within 5 years this will be more of a common thing and within 10 years it will be the absolute, unquestioned norm.
With other third-party monitors, True Tone will not be an available option.
Can't be unseen. That screen looks upside down.
Why not have full Adobe RGB color space? At one time the graphics, including photography, market was 98% Mac. I am a photographer, and professional drum scanner operator. My customers depend on me for accurate color rendition.
No. Rather, it keeps a natural ("true") white balance by adjusting for ambient lighting.True tone just makes things look yellow, would rather have 4k screen
Night shift and True Tone are two very different things. Night Shift, if you enable it, does deliberately "yellow" the display in order to avoid the effects of too much blue screen light interfering with the ability to fall asleep.Yes, it makes everything warmer or cooler. I prefer a well calibrated screen. Night shift is already good enough for nighttime. During the way I definitely wouldn’t like looking at a warm display.
They helped build it. Perhaps they are even getting some money off each piece sold.
Just gave mine away in May. I used it with joy since 2008. Fabulous display, even if the adapter was as big as a brick.""Just give me back a matte, 16:10 ACD display in the 30" size - preferably one with modern powered ports that is 5K or better. thanks.""
I use two of those to this day. Fantastic displays.
Without the ambient sensors working along with the true tone, I don't see how enabling True Tone is a feature on something like the LG Ultrafine displays. Unless True Tone will also control the screen brightness, which doesn't seem likely.No. Rather, it keeps a natural ("true") white balance by adjusting for ambient lighting.
As for the eyestrain claims, I can vouch for that on my 12.9 iPP. So much easier to read or work with documents for long periods.

True Tone preserves the natural white balance even when the ambient light changes.
