Apple quality can sting when we pay for it, but that is usually it. Then we can delight in the quality.
You will be happy with it!
With cheaper brands, it’s the other way around.
Probably the best decision I have made within the last year from a large purchase standpoint.
The crispness, size, and quality has upgraded my work days and ease of use with built in camera/mic as well. Enjoy!
Agreed. Yes there hundreds of cheaper full-featured 4k monitors. But as aforementioned, the scaling is off.
If i'm logical about it, there aren't many true 5k monitors to begin with. And the ASD is arguably the overall best.
Gives you
true retina, incredible build quality, and some extras (speakers and camera) (albeit subpar quality with the latter).
Would've liked HDR or 90hz refresh rate, or mini-LED but then that would essentially cannibalise Pro XDR display sales.
Also the Thunderbolt display was 999 back in 2011. Accounting for inflation, the ASD is basically falls in line with standard Apple display pricing...even if i don't like it.
