A before-and-after comparison of the Studio Display camera.
Photo by Becca Farsace / The Vergearrived last month with big promises about its webcam, which features a 12-megapixel sensor, an f2.4 ultra-wide lens, and the same A13 chip running the whole thing as found in the iPhone 11. Unfortunately, it shipped with buggy software that made everything look bad. Apple told us that it wasn’t “behaving as expected” and promised us a software update., sort of. You have to update your Mac to the public beta of macOS Monterey 12.
I updated my review unit last night, and, basically, the changes are what Apple said we’d see: the noise reduction is improved, contrast is better, and the framing is slightly wider. Here’s a side by side:It’s not going to blow anyone’s mind, but it’s definitely not as immediately broken-looking as before. There’s a little more detail in my face, less noise in the background, and the colors are definitely more accurate.
The update is still in beta, so we’ll see if Apple changes anything else when macOS 12.4 actually ships, which should be relatively soon. When that happens, we’ll take a closer look and update our review appropriately.Subscribe to get the best Verge-approved tech deals of the week.Please confirm your subscription to Verge Deals via the verification email we just sent you.
