What Happened
Apple has released macOS 27.3 beta 1, which includes a newly introduced screensaver featuring the official artwork from the touchscreen MacBook Pro, according to 9to5Mac.
The Details
According to 9to5Mac, the screensaver is derived from the wallpaper designed for the new MacBook Pro, which features a PROLED XDR Display. Continuing Apple's tradition of embedding product names into its wallpapers, the design uses a series of flowing, metallic-looking lines to spell out the word "PRO."
Included in the macOS 27.3 beta update, the screensaver is named Pro Light. In this animated version, light slowly moves along the metallic lines, illuminating various parts of the "PRO" lettering while other sections fade into darkness.
The Background
The underlying wallpaper design has generated a divisive reaction among users, with some comparing its visual style to a glitchy or broken screen, as reported by 9to5Mac. The site notes that this timing is particularly unfortunate due to recent reports of display issues impacting the iPhone Duo. Prior to the official release of the screensaver, user Basic Apple Guy created a recreation of the artwork for those who wanted to download it.
