Because it was codeveloped with Apple. LG wouldn't have made anything like this if Apple weren't involved. I'm not talking about design, I'm talking about the panel, audio, USB-C only, camera, software integration, components, etc.
iFixit says the 27" iMac they took apart had an LG manufactured display. Could these just be the iMac displays in LG packaging?

Don't understand what's so ugly about it? Not enough distracting aluminum and glass for you?Nice price for a panel of that size and quality. Why they had to make it so ugly is beyond me.
But I thought that limit was removed with the new MacBooks because they can handle two external 5K displays? Surely the new iMac could also handle this right?But the rest of your predictions I think are spot on. Definitely no target display mode, but you can't blame apple. That's actually a limit of TB3 / DP 1.2.
His question was about an older iMac.But I thought that limit was removed with the new MacBooks because they can handle two external 5K displays? Surely the new iMac could also handle this right?
$1000 for that ugly, overpriced monitor with poor build quality. Get Tim out of there.
I think Apple said co-developed specifically as a signal to the market that they are out of the display business. It would be dumb to encourage everyone to buy a third party display only to release your own in a few months-- you'd loose all that pent up demand.Maybe it looks like that because Apple were working on their own display which they would want to sell you over the LG ones.
Uhhhhhh…looking at the post, it seemed like you were responding to me. I had been talking about predictions for an upcoming machine. I had originally mentioned target display mode coming back, you had mentioned that they might not offer it and some other things, I was worried and listed all the things they could cut, then you responded that last part about it being a limitation, and I was saying that it shouldn't be a limitation on the new machines though.His question was about an older iMac.
Damn that sold out fast. Still the 6-8 week wait time is insane. Ah well at least I got my order in.Looks like it's sold out.

My 2-y old LG monitor has thunderbolt as well. It's not like LG went further out of its way for this one.

See post no. 5.
Apple partnered with LG I think "codeveloped" is a little reaching. Considering how un-Apple looking it is.
Not available in the USA either. I spent 45 minutes speaking with an Apple Specialist and NO ONE has pre-ordered.Not available in UK or the Netherlands either. Nice US only launch :/
Someone posted a screenshot of their order...Not available in the USA either. I spent 45 minutes speaking with an Apple Specialist and NO ONE has pre-ordered.
More False News just like the election coverage?
Well, I'm in the US and (a) It IS NOT available for pre-order anywhere andLooks like it's only available in the U.S. and Canada right now -- added a line at the end of the post. Other countries are still listing "December" as a debut date, so keep an eye on it. Should be coming soon.

Although that doesn't mean that Apple will add the capability back in. They've been on quite the tear removing functionality.
All the ports in the back are USB-C. So you will still need ALL your dongles to connect anything and everything.You get to connect everything over a single cable, which negates the majority of the "dongle-gate" criticism when working from your desk.
