MacBook Displays Are Calibrated Differently from Most Monitors

Since 2015 Apple® has been using the Display P3 color gamut in most of their displays, including the built-in displays on their MacBook. But beyond supporting the P3 color gamut, your MacBook’s built-in display is also fine-tuned by Apple to ensure accurate, rich, and consistent color. As a result, while many external monitors claim to support P3, their color temperature, gamma curves (which control contrast), and color rendering often don’t match Apple’s standards. It is this mismatch that causes the colors to appear differently on most external monitors.

One key factor is white point, i.e., the way the monitor defines the color “white.” MacBooks use a different white point from most PC monitors, which is why you might feel your external monitor looks too yellow or too blue.

How the BenQ MA Series Solves the Problem

BenQ has spent years developing our expertise in color. With our Mac Color-Tuning Technology, the MA Series is engineered to bring your external monitor as close as possible to the MacBook’s color experience.

Calibrated to Match MacBook’s Color Standards

Unlike generic P3 monitors, BenQ MA Series displays are tested and tuned in BenQ’s professional color labs to align with MacBook’s visual standards. It’s not just about supporting P3—it’s about achieving true visual consistency.

What makes the MA series different:

  1. Accurate white point calibration: The MA Series matches MacBook’s white tone, meaning no yellow or blue shifts.
  2. Custom gamma curve: The same contrast and brightness balance found in your MacBook is replicated in the MA Series monitors.
  3. Gamut fine-tuning: Going beyond the P3 color gamut, each MA Series model includes specific color parameters tailored for various MacBook models*.

So, when you connect a BenQ MA Series monitor to your MacBook, the colors will instantly match with no manual adjustments required.
