Anyone who thinks this monitor is overpriced simply doesn’t value 5k or the importance of solid, sturdy, reliable display that just “works.” Compare this to the ultrafine in person and you‘ll easily see the $300 difference. The reality is that other monitors have cut corners. This is the true price for this form factor and technology. Everything else is hoping you’ll ignore the flimsy plastic or plop it on a VESA arm.
It's nicer than my $200 Asus monitor but not $1300 nicer.
No proof reliability is any better. My monitor just works too.
But sure to get the 5k at 27" and the speakers and camera and compatibility with the brightness button on a Mac keyboard plus the aluminum frame and the special glass...this is the price.
I do selfishly wish Apple had a "Mac mini" monitor option. You know a more entry level priced gateway drug option.
