The M4 MacBook Pro models feature quantum dot display technology, according to display analyst Ross Young. Apple used a quantum dot film instead of a red KSF phosphor film, a change that provides more vibrant, accurate color results.
Young says that Apple has opted for KSF for prior MacBook Pro models because it doesn't use toxic element cadmium (typical for quantum dot) and is more...

I have AirPod Pros 2, AirPod Max, and these Beats Studio Pro. I use the APP2 for mobility, the APM when watching movies, and the Beats for music. I'd wear the APM for music too but the fabric and my beard don't mix well. While they sound better than the Beats, I think the Beats are good up to maybe $250.
I really wish Apple would open up the Apple TV hardware to allow third-party BT headphones to use Dolby Atmos/Spatial Audio. That's what limits a lot of people like me who watch everything on the ATV several hours every night and wants the best sound.
Can only comment on the Beats Fit Pro model. The ANC is very weak and finding the proper ear tips is difficult and costly. The included silicone tips are alright but it's hard to find the exact replacement silicone tips, in one particular size and in one particular color (i.e. Volt Yellow). iPhone owners should stick with the Apple APP2 for good ANC (until Apple decides to nerf the ANC with future updates like it did with the original APP).
