Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Apple's next Studio Display, expected in 2026, is rumored to include three big upgrades: an A19 chip, ProMotion 120Hz, and HDR support. HDR strongly suggests Apple will swap the current LCD for a Mini-LED panel to achieve higher brightness. Even without other changes, these additions would mark a substantial improvement over today's A13-powered, 60Hz, SDR Studio Display. The launch is expected to align with high-end M5 Macs in 2026. Leaks also point to a second upcoming Apple monitor and an iPad using the same A19 chip.
