Studio Display Shipping Estimates Have Significantly Improved

[MacRumors]

Four months after Apple released the Studio Display, shipping estimates for the display are finally showing significant improvement in many countries.

While the Studio Display was estimated for delivery in 8-10 weeks as of May, and in 6-8 weeks as of June, Apple's online store now shows a much shorter 1-2 week delivery estimate for new orders in the United States. These timeframes apply to the $1,599 configuration of the Studio Display with standard glass and a tilt-adjustable stand, with upgraded configurations still facing lengthier but improving shipping estimates.

In Canada, a Studio Display ordered today can be delivered by Apple as early as July 26, and UK orders are facing a 3-4 weeks wait.

Introduced alongside the Mac Studio in March, the Studio Display is a standalone display that serves as a lower-priced alternative to Apple's Pro Display XDR. The display features a 27-inch screen with 5K resolution, a 12-megapixel Ultra Wide camera with Center Stage, a six-speaker sound system with Spatial Audio, one Thunderbolt 3 port, and three USB-C ports. Upgrade options include nano-texture glass and a height-adjustable stand.

Looks like the supply chain is starting to remember the "supply" part again.

Good news, hopefully other tech part chains will start to flow faster as well.

I’m actually tempted to get a second one. It’s been the best display I’ve owned.

Also PSA, it is $1499 at Costco ($100 cheaper than the apple store)

I'm not sure why there was such a delay on Studio Display in the first place. Not like it contains a certain chip.

So supply is catching up with demand…

 

[macsplusmacs]

good apple.

now do 7K.

They'll improve even more since this is the same UltraFine available since 2016 for an even cheaper price back then.

In the UK seems it is only the base (Tilt only) configuration that has improved. I'm looking to get a VESA mount and it is still showing a 6 week lead time.

Still can't understand why Apple doesn't make a consumer display that is nothing more than an iMac with no "cpu guts".

Edit: Not saying the chin would be great but you could put better speakers in it or some other features. Point is this would require minimal engineering costs etc and give us a consumer grade, and price, product.

I plan too, after I see what the m2 mini looks like and I decide between desktop plus this screen, vs desktop + laptop with this screen, or just laptop + screen. So many great combos out there.

Maybe not a certain chip but many chips

As of today, July 21st you can get one from Best Buy by this Saturday July 23rd.

Man, I need the tilt + height adjustable stand! I guess that is the most popular option....makes sense...

Lots of people it would appear. Keep in mind that nerd rage on tech blogs does not influence sales in the least bit. I ordered mine June 15 and it still says July 25-August 1 for delivery.

 

[iWeaverOS]

I love my studio display.

If you're in the market for one, go order from Costco if you can! I think I saved $100 and shipping was awesome.

I really want one, but I think my eyes are getting to be too old for 2560x1440 points (going by points here, no pixels) on a 27" diagonal screen. And I'm certainly not going to scale to fewer than than 1440 vertical points.

Put the same number of points (and pixels) on a 30" frame and I'd buy it immediately.

However, I still plan on checking one out in person when I can.

A fair number of people have been wanting an Apple-branded retina 5K display since the launch of the iMac 5K because the other 5K retina options were not appealing so I was not surprised initial demand was high.

Yeah, mine sold out last night which I was going to try and price match with Costcos $1499 price.

I've had mine on order with Apple for 3 weeks yet Best Buy/Costco has them unstuck

Many people as Apple has been sold out for months. I'm waiting on mine to pair with my new M1 Mini
