Hi there, plante16.


It appears that you're wondering if the Apple Pro Display XDR will work with your 2019 MacBook Air, and we're glad to help with this.


Pro Display XDR - Technical Specifications - Apple -- Under "Compatibility", you'll find this list:


"Pro Display XDR is compatible with the following Mac models running macOS Catalina 10.15.2 or later:

  • Mac Pro (2019) with MPX Module GPUs
  • 15-inch MacBook Pro (2018 or later)
  • 16-inch MacBook Pro (2019)
  • 13-inch MacBook Pro with four Thunderbolt 3 ports (2020)
  • 13-inch MacBook Pro with M1 chip (2020)
  • MacBook Air (2020)
  • MacBook Air with M1 chip (2020)
  • 27-inch iMac (2019 or later)
  • 21.5-inch iMac (2019)
  • Mac mini with M1 chip (2020)
  • Any Mac model with Thunderbolt 3 ports paired with Blackmagic eGPU or Blackmagic eGPU Pro"


MacBook Air (Retina, 13-inch, 2019) - Technical Specifications -- You're 2019 MacBook Air doesn't include Blackmagic eGPU or Blackmagic eGPU Pro, so we're afraid it isn't compatible.


Take care.
