Apple to Fix Resolution Issue With Ultrawide Displays on M1 Macs in Future macOS Update

Wednesday December 23, 2020 6:58 am PST by Joe Rossignol

In a new support document, Apple has acknowledged that when an ultrawide or super-ultrawide external display is connected to a Mac with the M1 chip, some resolutions supported by the display may not be available currently.

Apple says it is aware of this issue and has a solution planned for a future macOS update. Apple did not specify exactly when a fix will be available, but the first beta of macOS 11.2 was seeded last week, so that is one possibility.

To see additional resolutions for your external display, click on the Apple logo in the top-left corner of your Mac, open System Preferences, click Displays, and press and hold the Option key while you click "Scaled."

There is a running thread about this issue in the MacRumors forums.

Is there any reason apart from aesthetics to have one of these monitors and not just place two ordinary monitors side by side?

Can’t run one full screen app across two displays.
No bezel dividing the display down the middle.
Playing games on an ultrawide is pretty awesome.
M1 Macs can only support one external display without DisplayLink work-arounds.

M1 doesn't support dual monitors.

The M1 mini does support dual monitors. The laptops only support one external in addition to the internal display.

Looking forward to this update. I'm curious if anyone has been able to run the M1 Air at 3440x1440 at 144hz natively in macOS.

Will they also fix it with intel macs? my 2018 MBP promised to support my 32:9 display and Apple still hasn’t baked in native support.
