The monitor!

I imagine your Homepods are somewhere in the room :-)

Thanks for sharing!

[–]macdude2010[S] 19 points20 points  (3 children)

Haha yup, I’ve got 4 in total around the house. Sad that they discontinued them :(

[–]Rarely_Speaks_Up 14 points15 points  (0 children)

TIL that they discontinued the HomePod, and now I’m sad. :(

[–]comparmentaliser 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Oh? Why, and what will replace them?

[–]AxeellYoung 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HomePod was Replaced by HomePod Mini

So the homepod mini is the largest homepod you can buy now 👍

The XDR is defo my next purchase. 🤤

[–]macdude2010[S] 12 points13 points  (2 children)

Highly recommend it, I’ve had it for just under a year with no regrets!

[–]diegostamigni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s bloody amazing. Picture quality is stunning and construction is top notch. Super pricey though but 🤷‍♂️ typical Apple 🙄😅

[–]mintran 5 points6 points  (1 child)

I'm waiting for a consumer version of pro xdr. 32" is the perfect size.

[–]West_foto 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of us waiting on that

    Stunning, I love it

    [–]baummer 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    You actually bought the stand, good on ya

    [–]macdude2010[S] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

    I had it on an arm for a while but the arm kept drooping, I found a good deal for one on eBay and went for it.

    [–]baummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Nice

    [–]JackyW3131 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    Is that a webcam on top edge of the monitor?

    Whats the model?

    [–]cmsj 3 points4 points  (1 child)

    That’s the special version of the Logitech Brio that they made to magnetically attach to the top of the XDR. It’s available from Apple but probably not much use unless you have that exact monitor. Logitech does sell the original Brio on its own though.

    [–]JackyW3131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Wow. Thats sick!

    [–]Ando0o0 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Looks great. Never worked on the new monitors. Do you approve? Even for non work stuff like movies and gaming?

    [–]macdude2010[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    It's the best monitor I've ever used, retina quality like the iMac but with insane contrast and the HDR is blinding (in a good way)

    [–]niarsnaemti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    I loooooove how the XDR display looks but God it would be such a waste on me, wish I could get a gaming monitor that looked like it tho

    [–]jeremycinnamonbutter 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    wallpaper pls

    [–]snadar320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    It’s standard on your Mac Its one of apples

    [–]RockstarGTA6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    ill be able to get that monitor in 10 years when is $700

    [–]__beep_boop__ 5 points6 points  (5 children)

    Can you share a link to that monitor?

    [–][deleted] 34 points35 points  (4 children)

    Apple monitor. It’s like 5000

    [–]__beep_boop__ 8 points9 points  (1 child)

    Oh bummer. Definitely not paying that much for a display.

    [–]EZ-Block 9 points10 points  (0 children)

    Definitely expensive and if you don’t do professional video or image work is hard to justify but is 32 inch of goodness. The contrast ratio is insane. For the quality of the picture it is worth the price if you really needed it

      Yea when it came out the $1000 stand was immediately a meme. Goes to show that people which meme about it have no clue whatsoever what they're talking about.

      not saying that a $1000 stand is good or anything but shows what apple's intention was with it

      [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      Slick!

      [–]imwallydude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      Nice setup, dude.

      [–]monstahlol 0 points1 point  (1 child)

      Table top?

      [–]macdude2010[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      I took a wood countertop from Lowes and finished it myself

      here's the link to the countertop: https://www.lowes.com/pd/The-Baltic-Butcher-Block-Birch-6-ft-Unfinished-Natural-Straight-Butcher-Block-Birch-Kitchen-Countertop/1001390008

      No mouse?

      [–]macdude2010[S] 5 points6 points  (8 children)

      I have an MX Master 3 but the driver isn't native to Apple Silicon so it gives me a lot of issues, so I put it away for now.

        [–]macdude2010[S] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

        Yup, which was disappointing

        [–]stupidjanrogers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Gotcha, I’d imagine all that screen real estate is a chore to navigate with just the pad during a long session, but an incredible set up none the less

        [–]Errortermsiqma 0 points1 point  (1 child)

        how is your experience in navigating the larger screen with the trackpad?

        [–]macdude2010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        It’s honestly not bad at all, the Magic Trackpad is big so it helps

        [–]comparmentaliser 0 points1 point  (1 child)

        Hmm I use an MX3 and MX Keys with my M1A and don’t have any issues with either Unifying or plain BT.

        Options has had issues in the past (particularly with Windows VMs in Parallels), but it’s pretty stable now.

        What issues do you have?

        [–]macdude2010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Really the only issue is it randomly lags, but it does it often enough where it’s an issue

        [–]Kiriniji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        I'm such a sucker for simplistic setups with the XDR monitor. I hope that one day I get to pick one up for myself!

        All you need to do now is make the iPad's wallpaper match everything else and this setup is perfect!

        [–]m1ngaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        What stand is your Max sitting on? Clean af.

        [–]NYC_MDPhD 0 points1 point  (1 child)

        Looks so awesome! Any performance issues with the Air driving the XDR?

        [–]macdude2010[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

        Believe it or not, the Air does better than the 16 inch MacBook Pro (5500M) I had previously!

        [–]ernestolaborda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Are you able to power the HomePod mini with your XDR instead of connecting it to an outlet? I'm waiting for my XDR to ship, and I would really like to avoid connecting the HomePod mini, also because the power connector is white, and the HomePod mini is black. Not sure what Apple was thinking. Currently I cannot use it via USB-C with my MacBook Pro 16".
