Thanks for the reply , Gavin. My display settings are - resolution default, nightshift is off, brightness is at around 40%, both True tone and automatic brightness control are on.

Thanks for your suggestion. Yes I've already tried the HiDPI. Didn't do any good. And yes, I too had used Firestorm on my MacMini - and a 2012 version even at that - without any issue whatsoever ! So I'm a little surprised also with the glitch I'm having with the new Pro !! An incidental finding - I've noticed that in the Graphics pane on preferences, iunder the hardware tab, the Gamma setting button is greyed out and the Gamma is by default set to 0.00 (which is the brightest). I think setting it to a higher value (lower value = brightest) could help. But I don't know how to !

Yes. I calibrated the monitor. No improvement.I tried the CalWL setting. No improvement.I’m waiting for some more concrete suggestions, but I think it’s the graphics driver that is not matching the M1 specs. As I said, all primary colors look garishly bright, glaring almost. But the red one is making me mad. I used a Windows 10 previously, was much more soothing and had perfect color renderings ! And I thought Apple would do it better !

Just 48 hours into my MacBook Pro M1, 8GB RAM. Firestorm and SLViewer both run swell but one notable issue for me. And I don’t like it at all ! The color gamut is odd. Colors are rendered TOO warm. The red is garishly red.. even crimson. Dark skin shades have a red/magenta tinge. Looks awful ! I haven’t noticed any other issues. Oh yah ! One more. Doesn’t go beyond High on th graphics settings.
