Do you think they put a $1300 monitor into a $1800 machine? I know they make a profit, but it seems strange. If they do do this, I’d be really surprised.
iFixit's teardown of the 5K iMac in 2014 showed that it was manufactured by LG. However, this is "just" the panel, which would presumably be at a much lower cost to Apple. When I tested out some 4k monitors before settling on the iMac I was surprisingly pleased with some of the 4K VA panels out there now, so long as you don't need wide viewing angles. Too bad the scaling on 4K is so taxing to the GPU for the resolutions I use.
