Upgrading to nano-texture glass for even less glare increases the price to $1,749.00, which is still a solid deal at a $150 savings over the regular price. Versions with the tilt- and height-adjustable stand are priced higher.

Well, that was the motivation I needed to get this over an OLED Alienware monitor. Just wish the tilt and height adjustable version has a similar discount.

$1299 Studio Display
$1299 Mac mini M2 Pro 16GB 512GB 2.8GB/s

Not bad-ish... would have preferred that Mac mini to have double the memory, SSD & SSD read/write throughput at the same $1299 price point.

 

[ilikewhey]

be wary of purchasing this consider new 27inch 5k monitors are going to be released very soon.

Still overpriced!

Still overpriced!

No it's not. The LG Ultrafine 5K is also $1300 and the Apple Studio Display is better.

 

[TheLunaPark]

No it's not. The LG Ultrafine 5K is also $1300 and the Apple Studio Display is better.

That just means both the LG and the Studio Display are overpriced. In my opinion, the Studio Display should cost no more than $999.

Would be awesome if its price $100 more than the most popular 27" 4K display

That just means both the LG and the Studio Display are overpriced. In my opinion, the Studio Display should cost no more than $999.

It should also just come with the height adjustable stand. I could see that combo for $1300 as good monitors really aren't cheap. It should also include an extra input for other computers, and the user should be able to remove the stand and mount it like any other monitor out there. If it met all of those criteria, I'd easily pay $1300 for it.

Shame Canada isn’t seeing this discount.

 

[Koodauw]

Damn should have waited. Oh well, have been enjoying this thing for several months now.

 

[currocj]

No it's not. The LG Ultrafine 5K is also $1300 and the Apple Studio Display is better.

A brand new LG Ultrafine 5K can easily be had for $1100, open box $900, used $550-800.
There is not a single used Studio Display under $1200 anywhere, I know I've looked

Both are overpriced. Samsung has a comparable display for around $700.

Samsung does not have a 5K display for $700. They have a 4K monitor for that price, which isn't at all comparable.

But the normal MRSP is $1300. Well, the Apple Studio Display is the best Mac display besides the Pro XDR display so I'd be suprised if you find it for lower than $1200.

If you enjoy PWM flickering, bugs/quirks with Mac OS and reliability issues (as LG monitors tend to break alot), then sure, go for the LG.

True, it's 4K. But they just announced a 5K version of it. I'm interested to see the pricing.

By the way, that monitor is going to have a 4K webcam built in.

Just received my Apple Certified Refurbished Studio Display last week in anticipation for my M2 Pro Mac Mini (arriving tomorrow!), I can’t believe it’s dropped to such a low price.

Word to the wise: Apple does price matching! In the past week, I’ve been able to price match the Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse, and now the Studio Display to save over a hundred bucks.

 

[Just sayin...]

I would imagine that the upcoming Samsung ViewFinity S9 is putting some downward pricing pressure on the Studio Display.

$1299 Studio Display
$1299 Mac mini M2 Pro 16GB 512GB 2.8GB/s

Not bad-ish... would have preferred that Mac mini to have double the memory, SSD & SSD read/write throughput at the same $1299 price point.

It makes me look ahead to a 27" iMac, which will probably start at around $2,499.

 

[deannnnn]

Let me know when it gets down to $499

 

[sam_dean]

It makes me look ahead to a 27" iMac/iMac Pro, which will probably start at around $2,499.

iMac 27" replacement that is $2599

- 27" 5K display
- M2 Pro base chip
- 32GB memory
- 1TB 5.6GB/s
- Magic Keyboard with Numberpad and Touch ID
- Magic Trackpad

Not to mention cheap plastic versus sturdy aluminum, and shake shake shake every time you move at your desk.

 

[svish]

Good to see discount. Can combine with the new Mac mini.

Right, this doesn't come with a Magic Keyboard or Magic Trackpad so the value proposition is lessened.

Doubly so since resale is typically better with a product like an iMac, or a MacBook Air for that matter.

I got it on day 1. Walked into Apple Store during working hours. thats 10 months of use. don't regret it.
