We tested the webcam for ourselves, and like the rest of the reviewing public, came away unimpressed with the image quality, especially as it's hardwired into such a premium panel.

One choice, apparently, was the recycling of the 12-megapixel front-facing camera from the iPhone 11 as the main webcam for the Studio Display. Speaking of that teardown, the team at iFixit found some interesting design choices inside the Studio Display when they dismantled theirs. No power brick to be seen here as iFixit discovered during its Studio Display teardown (Opens in a new window), Apple found a way to park the power supply inside the back of the Studio Display itself. Indeed, little of the feature set suggests that the Studio Display is made for content professionals outside of the Apple ecosystem (despite the monitor's technical support for PC inputs).Ī single power port in the back connects to an Apple-specific cable. If you want to use one of the included calibrated color profiles that Apple has built into the latest versions of its operating system, the panel is compatible with macOS only. The Apple Pro Studio display is compatible with any computer that can eventually output its signal to USB-C, but that doesn't make it a good choice for much outside the Apple-sphere. So, are 60Hz, "just" color-accurate displays like the Apple Studio Display worth the price of entry, in a time when alternatives like the MSI Optix MPG321UR-QD, with a 4K resolution and 144Hz peak refresh rate, exist at a comparatively cool $899? That's for Apple loyalists to decide.because they're the only ones who can really make full use of the Studio Display in the first place. And display technologies like Fast IPS married high color accuracy and extreme refresh-rate performance into one panel a while ago. We don't live in a world where Garage Band is your only option for producing tunes on the go anymore, though. As content creation becomes a larger focus of the product portfolio of display stalwarts like Acer and Asus, the maker of the "original" content-creation computers can't help but somehow make the proposition of 3D modeling and pro video work sound like a task reserved only for the most precisely engineered devices. And the latest monitor release from the Cupertino hardware giant is nothing if not on-brand. Released alongside the Mac Studio, Apple's new $1,599.99 Studio Display is a 5K (5,120-by-2,880-pixel) 27-inch companion panel.
