Mac Mini and MBP offer different resolution selections on the same monitor
Same cable, same monitor, I just unplugged the TB4 cable from the MBP, plugged it into the Mini. Any ideas?
Mac mini, macOS 15.3
Each of the Macs has different GPUs that support different resolutions. You can learn what resolutions each supports by studying the Tech Specs of each machine. To do this first you need to know exactly which model year Mac you own:
- Click the Apple symbol in the upper left of the display.
- Click About this Mac
- The window that opens will show the model year of the computer.
- Google to find the tech specs, for example if you have a 2024 M4 Mac mini Google "2024 Mac mini Tech Specs M4" and locate the Tech Specs for that model year of Mac mini and look for the external display specs it supports. Do the same for your MacBook Pro.
