Studio Display XDR is disappointing

I know this is a hot take but hear me out. I have had the OG Studio Display for years and it’s my favorite monitor of all time. So naturally when the XDR was announced I jumped on it because I thought it would be some giant leap. It’s not. At least not for me.

It’s clear that the XDR has slightly better colors due to the darker blacks, 3k for a marginally better panel? Hard pill to swallow. The refresh rate is nice, but not something I care about that much as I just look at code all day and my OG did that incredibly well already.

I want to love this panel, I wanted it to blow me away with its colors and performance but it’s just meh. I did get a nano texture version while my OG is glossy and in some cases the text in my old monitor is sharper.

Am I missing something? Maybe it’s my own fault for overhyping this monitor.
