Might be a decent deal, but if I were in the market, I'd wait for the updated new model this year, especially since the older Studio Display model has a flickering issue with Tahoe.

I went with a 31.5" 6K non-Apple monitor though. 27" is too small for my tastes in 2026.

Someone recently wrote (edit: 999$), and hits the point, that if this was the new price for the old ASD, it would be extra!

Clearing the inventory out...

Now it's only $1,000 more than it should be!

 

[tomtad]

Woot, good news. Getting to around the price point this should be

 

[turbineseaplane]

The best thing in that sale might be the 1m woven usb-c cables.

Now it's only $1,000 more than it should be!

Paper specs aren't everything.

While the Apple Studio Display is expensive for its paper specs, it has amongst the best QA in its class, the best out-of-the-box colour accuracy in its class, and the best chassis. And I say that as someone who bought a third party non-Apple monitor.

 

[SAIRUS]

I'd even recommend this as the best monitor for office/coding use if you can afford it. The best tool is of course what you have.

I have the LG UltraFine 5K and it's still going great. Everyone that sees it loves the ability to just plug in with one wire, so if that is worth the cost, grabbing a Studio Display might be worth it.

I'm holding out for next years $9000 version. So I can be a trendy early adopter.

 

[RWI]

I recently bought a 2nd hand ASD for €1000,- and couldn't be happier.
In Europe we seldomly have cut down prices that mean something on Apple Products.
2nd Hand apple products like this monitor are booming (and prices are still high sometimes even higher =then America's discounted ones). On the other hand we have more warranty (longer) than Americans. If the new one comes, I hope 2nd hand prices drop way below €1000,- Then I would be in the market for more then 1 again (with new mini's).

The panel is still expensive and it is 5k.

Show me a nice bright display that has nice speakers, A series chip, high speed usb-c/thunderbolt ports, easy integration with Apple devices with charging, decent webcam and 5k panel, solid tilt/height adjustment, beautiful design that is of this high quality for $999.

Even the Chinese knockoffs are $1200+.

It's not mini-LED or OLED, but still a solid 60Hz display.

 

[DotCom2]

I've had one for quite a while now and absolutely LOVE IT! When I look at other monitors they all look cheap and plastic to me. I get ohhhh and awww when I show somebody something on my screen. It's perfect for my needs and also glad I got it at a good discount years ago.

 

[Mactech20]

I have one and I absolutely love it. Although I completely agree here it isn't worth the value. You really are just paying for the aesthetic of it all. To some that is worth it.

 

[EugW]

Even the Chinese knockoffs are $1200.

That is not correct.

The Kuycon G27P 27" 5K with all aluminum chassis and solid aluminum height adjustable stand is US$750. Shipping is $48 to the US, so US$800 shipped for a Chinese knockoff 27" 5K. (Note that sometimes when you contact them directly, you can negotiate down the shipping fee.)

And you can even get a Tcolor 31.5" 6K with all aluminum chassis (with an XDR-esque knockoff back design) with solid aluminum height adjustable stand for even less at US$680 plus $65 shipping, but that one has a matte screen. So, US$750 shipped for a Chinese knockoff 31.5" 6K, but with an AUO matte screen and from a smaller company.

I paid a little over US$1500 for my matte 31.5" LG UltraFine 6K, but mine comes with Thunderbolt 5, DisplayPort 2.1, and HDMI 2.1, as well as a 2000:1 contrast ratio panel. However, the stand didn't go as low as I'd like, so I bought a third party all aluminum height adjustable stand for US$82 shipped to replace the OEM stand, so total price with monitor was about US$1600 plus tax with the latest 2025 LG Nano IPS Black panel.

Does the rather poor reputation of Woot! not trouble anyone? I have purchased, without problems, simple items like Apple Watchbands at a terrific price from Woot!, but their poor reputation makes me hesitant to order anything close to an Apple Display.

For example:

• Consumer-focused review sites like Sitejabber and BBB show low average ratings (around 1–2 stars), citing dissatisfaction with product quality, incorrect/defective items, and difficulty getting effective support.
• Trustpilot reviews similarly highlight repeated issues with defective products, missing orders, and limited customer service channels (email-only, slow or unhelpful responses)

 

[SAIRUS]

I have also used an LG 42” oled as a spare monitor for video editing and mostly previews. I got it for 800. I use my iPad Pro now when on the go.

I may have also used a 1080p monitor from time to time for previews which are considerably cheaper but as I got older I’d throw code samples on there to read.

Except for slow shipment, never had an issue with them. While others may have, I'm not going to let that affect my thoughts on this until I have an issue.

LG released a panel at CES a couple of weeks ago that it seems the updated Apple Studio Display will be based on. Amongst other quality upgrades is text legibility. As someone above said this seems like an inventory clearout to make way for the new model.

4K 42" is far too low a pixel density for a lot of macOS users, for desktop use in 2026. That's only 105 ppi. I mean it's fine if you don't mind that it's not Retina at normal seating distances, as it's similar in pixel density to the old school Cinema Displays, but now that macOS no longer supports sub-pixel anti-aliasing, that pixel density has become problematic for text quality at normal seating distances.

Mind you, if you sit very far away from a 42" 4K screen, it's fine. 105 ppi effectively becomes Retina at about 33" distance or more.

Worth noting: the ASD can be found at the same discount (and in more configurations) at the refurbished section of Apple's own site. You don't have to wait for random one-off Woot deals.

 

[Carrma]

The XDR pro 32” looks like a heck of a deal no?

 

[SDAVE]

That is not correct.

The Kuycon G27P 27" 5K with all aluminum chassis and solid aluminum height adjustable stand is US$750. Shipping is $48 to the US, so US$800 shipped for a Chinese knockoff 27" 5K. (Note that sometimes when you contact them directly, you can negotiate down the shipping fee.)

Go to Kuycon's site and upgrade everything that matches the Studio Display. It still comes out to be $1148 or something like that.

Also you are forgetting that these are just some knock offs. If you are in a production environment, would you really risk buying some cheap copy just to save $400? I'd rather go with Apple. Also how much do they charge for shipping? Where you can just walk into an Apple store and pick it up for free or get it shipped free + you will have Apple Care.

Also let's not forget that Apple displays are factory calibrated to match your other Apple devices, for example, I don't want color discrepancy between a MBP screen and Studio Display. And I want things to work out of the box and don't want to use 3rd party brightness controller apps. Also lets not forget that QA on these devices aren't good. I bet you will have issues with dead pixels etc. I am not willing to roll a dice on something as important as a monitor.

[EDIT] Just checked and shipping for Kyucon is $189, so total comes out to $1337

At the end of the day, do you want a ghetto-wannabe knock off or an Apple display?

For "official" monitors such as the LG one you mentioned, if you truly want a non-Apple display go for it. I'd rather get an Apple display personally. I was running dual 4k 27" LG's before I got the Studio Display's and there is a night and day difference. I love LG as a brand and will forever buy them if I need non-Apple displays, but I also do not like matte displays, I prefer glossy displays because it's better for black levels.

A lot of people are complaining that the Studio Display is not a good "value" meanwhile I will agree that it's not feature rich, at the end of the day, I prefer it over any other display because "it just works".

I totally welcome 120Hz 5k mini-LED (I doubt Apple will use OLED, it's too expensive) for $2,000 in the new Studio Displays. I will keep rolling with my current Studio Display(s) for a while until I see a need for the new one once they come out.

I’m waiting for Woot to offer deeply discounted iPhone Airs.

Woot! is great, been using them for over 10 years. Received many MBPs at steep discounts, it always comes in new (unless its refurb).
