If you're experiencing screen flickering issues while connected to an external display on your Apple silicon Mac, you're not alone. | ||
Flickering screens and faint lines can be frustrating, but fear not – I've got a solution for you. | ||
In this comprehensive guide, I'll walk you through the steps to resolve this problem and enjoy a seamless external display experience. | ||
|
||
## Step 1: Install the Latest Monitor Firmware | ||
|
||
The first step is to ensure your monitor (in my case, it's Dell U3223QE and the firmware version is M3T103) is running the latest firmware. | ||
If its a Dell monitor, head over to the Dell support website and find the latest firmware update for your monitor model. | ||
Download and install it following the provided instructions. | ||
|
||
## Step 2: Install Dell Monitor Driver for Color Profiles | ||
|
||
To enhance compatibility and to get custom color profiles from Dell, installing the monitor driver is essential. | ||
Visit the Dell support website once again, locate the appropriate monitor driver, and proceed with the installation. | ||
After the installation is complete, restart your Mac to ensure the changes take effect. | ||
|
||
## Step 3: Enable HDR on Both Monitor and Mac | ||
|
||
Last step is to fine-tune your display settings, first enable HDR on both your Dell U3223QE monitor and your Apple silicon Mac. | ||
Navigate to your monitor's display settings and enable HDR. | ||
Next, on your Mac, go to System Settings > Displays and enable HDR for the external display. | ||
I'd also recommend disabling True Tone if its a Macbook. | ||
|
||
Hopefully this will resolve the annoying flickering! :) | ||
