macOS 26.3 Contains Mentions of Two Additional Studio Display Variants, as Per Reports
New discoveries found in macOS 26.3 indicate several new Apple hardware products are on the horizon. In anticipation of Apple’s special “experience” on March 4, there are fresh references to two new models of the Studio Display, along with the frequently speculated low-cost MacBook featuring the A18 Pro chip.
### Are new Mac external displays on the way?
The references were discovered this week by Macworld within kernel extensions (kexts) in the public release of macOS 26.3 issued last week. These files mention three unreleased identifiers for Apple products: J700, J427, and J527.
J700, as earlier reported, is the codename for Apple’s anticipated low-cost MacBook equipped with the A18 Pro. This laptop is expected to debut next month, showcasing a display smaller than 13 inches. Bloomberg has also indicated that it will be constructed from aluminum and that Apple has experimented with various vibrant colors, such as light yellow, light green, blue, pink, classic silver, and dark gray.
However, what might be even more intriguing are the identifiers J427 and J527. The distinctions between these two models remain uncertain, but Macworld speculates they could either represent a larger screen size variant or a more budget-friendly version with fewer features.
Nonetheless, this isn’t the first instance revealing these two model identifiers. Bloomberg referred to these model numbers back in March. Here are the two scenarios Mark Gurman presented at that time:
> Apple is creating both and will select one for launch, or it’s a second model with an alternative screen size or specification set. After all, the Pro Display XDR is becoming a bit outdated too, so replacing that model could be logical.
Currently, Apple offers two external displays, including the Studio Display (starting at $1599) and the Pro Display XDR (starting at $4999). The Studio Display debuted in 2022 alongside the Mac Studio, while the Pro Display XDR was introduced in 2019 with the Mac Pro.
The inclusion of both external displays in macOS 26.3 suggests they are separate products still under development. Whether Apple intends to unveil both remains uncertain. We should receive more information shortly, with Apple expected to announce several new products during the week of March 2.
China Enforces Prohibition on Extendable Car Door Handles for Safety Concerns
Bloomberg disclosed these issues in September 2025.
In the case of a crash or battery failure, door handles that sit flush with a vehicle may fail, complicating access for emergency services trying to open a car door when necessary. Consequently, vehicle manufacturers in China will be prohibited from using recessed or flush door handles in their vehicles, and automakers must adhere to additional regulations regarding these mechanisms. Although the new laws also pertain to gas-powered vehicles, electric vehicles are anticipated to be more significantly affected by the new rules.
As China stands as the largest EV market globally, these new regulations could potentially have a worldwide impact, requiring manufacturers engaged with different countries to determine whether to comply solely with China’s standards in that region or apply the modifications across all their released vehicles.

Meta Will Sabotage Its Smart Glasses by Being Itself
Whenever I write about Meta’s Ray-Ban smart glasses, I already know the comments I’m going to get. Cool hardware, but hard pass on anything Meta makes; will wait for someone else to come along. It’s hard to imagine that sentiment changing anytime soon after The New York Times reported that Meta mulled launching facial recognition […]
