MacBook Pro Display too yellow compared to Studio Display

Hi!


I just received my brand new M2 MacBook Pro 16-Inch and my Studio Display.


Why is the display of the MacBook Pro yellow compared to the Studio Display?


The displays are using their default settings:


MacBook Pro: Apple XDR Display (P3-1600 nits)

Studio Display: Apple Display (P3-600 nits)


I turned True Tone off.


It is really important to me that both look the same please.


Thank you!


Christian.

I wanted to add that this tool https://github.com/supercurio/xdr-tuner has been incredibly useful as a custom calibration tool/stop gap. Here is the updated Python3 script to allow it work post OS Monteray: https://github.com/supercurio/xdr-tuner/issues/1#issuecomment-1574869077


You may have to `pip install pyobjc` to resolve some of the error.


Additionally, in my case, since I work with a monitor attached with my monitor set up as my 'main' screen, and want to change my laptop screen to match the stuido display monitor, I had to to change L57 to

` display_id = online_display_list_result[1][-1] # if laptop attached to monitor, this will choose laptop` so that it wasn't the monitor which was affected
