Testing the New Ultrawide Mac Virtual Display Option in VisionOS 2.2
MacRumors:
With the wide display option, there’s enough screen real estate to
use four apps at once without compromising on window size.
Ultrawide bumps up the available space even more, and it’s almost
too much display space.
Using the ultrawide setting is like having multiple curved Mac
displays in front of you to handle your Mac apps, and then you can
also add in visionOS apps to better utilize the virtual space
around you. The larger screen sizes for the Mac do improve
productivity because there’s so much more space to work with.
Note that you still can’t use multiple Mac windows when mirroring
your Mac display to your Vision Pro, but the wide and ultrawide
provide so much space that it’s essentially the same function.
Apple says that the ultrawide mode is equivalent to using two 4K
monitors side by side.
If this suits your physical workspace (like, say, if you live and work in a studio apartment) or travel needs, it comes close to justifying the cost of a Vision Pro by itself. A single Studio Display costs $1,600 (without a nicer stand, without the nicer nano-texture coating).
