These screens produce especially crisp visuals, and iFixit has taken it upon themselves to find out why. The publication conducted a teardown on the Apple Vision Pro with an emphasis on those glorious displays.

The publication indicates that the micro-OLED displays are likely custom-made by Sony, based on various design decisions.
An important measurement with pixel density is PPI (pixels per inch) an
