Frustratingly for me, even before the new firmware, Monitor mode ran noticeably faster on for all of my other devices (Surface Pro3, Sony vaiao, Dell Optiplex 9020) than it did on the MacBookPro I bought it for.

Previously I had to use the Monitor Mod found in these forums to allow touch use. Controlling the mouse was too frustrating, especially while coding.
Yes, I also upgraded the firmware to 2.0 on my Max 2 pro and after few days of running it I have noticed that the picture quality is better. I am using my Max 2 pro with my macbook pro in the mirror mode. I put a microfiber screen protector on the retina screen and stuck my onyx max boox 2 pro in front of it with whitetac at the bottom. Manages everything for me except Netflix (Needs HiDPi mode). I am glad that the firmware upgrade has helped you too!
