I ordered the Mac Studio when it came out, and hemmed/hawed/paced about for almost two months deciding on a display. Even took delivery of a 4K 32" ASUS ProArt, but never actually opened the box. I knew that the cost of the ASD would soon be forgotten, but it would bug me, maybe subconsciously, about reading 5K text on a 4K display, every single time I turned it on. I sent the unopened ProArt back, and bought the ASD. I've forgotten the price as I thought I would, and love turning everything on every morning. The display on my 2015 iMac still looks perfect to me, and as I'm older than you any improved display tech in the future wouldn't do me any good anyway; this is my last display (my 2007, 24" iMac in the basement still looks good, still works, although not as sharp as the 5K modern stuff). Nice reminiscent video!

Hi Jerry! Is the gorilla glass provides better contrast and color vs the normal glossy dough ?

I was deciding on buying a 4K high refresh rate or a ASD for programming and casual gaming. I watched almost all videos about ASD on KZread and still couldn’t decide what to choose. The biggest problem was that I couldn’t find a place where to see ASD in person and blindly buying such a pricey piece of tech without an option to turn it back in my country didn’t sound like a good plan. Recently I saw it while on a vacation in another country and it was mind blowing. Honestly no video can show how it really looks. 5K, glossy screen, vibrant colours. It’s like a giant floating IPad. I understood that that’s what I want. So my advice is go and see it yourself and then decide.

I have the 4K LG 24 inch Ultrafine monitor which is made for Mac. I run it at native resolution of 1920x1080 where four pixels are combined into a single virtual pixel to be displayed. It is a great display at a reasonable cost. This display is of the same quality of display on my 2019 27 inch iMac.

I have the tilt Studio Display paired with a Mac Studio M2 Max. Opted for the display due to the build quality, 5K and plug-and-play compatibility. It's pricey, yes, but it works for me...

Good enough reasons for me.

I’ve seen a KZread video where the caster did some research online and found someone who had looked at many monitors for coupling to Mac OS. The secret to a clear vision is the number of pixels per inch that align with the pixels on Apple 5K monitors. One needs in the area of 220 ppi on 5K displays or 110 ppi on 4K displays. There are a few monitors that meet this criteria: some in the 27” and 24” screen sizes.

@dotinsideacircle

​@@fty-ys4ni @timgurr1876 Yes, a 5K display with 220 ppi will be indistinguishable in terms of sharpness compared to the Apple Studio Display. However, are you sure about 4K 110 ppi? From what I understand, a 4K resolution (3840 x 2160) with 110 PPI has a lower pixel density compared to the 5K display therefore, while the ppi matches in a distribution ratio, the pixels are more spread out, resulting in a less sharp image when viewed from the same distance. A 27 4K monitor needs to be scaled to be usable, but takes a performance hit.

I use the Studio Display with a VESA mount from Amazon Basics.

I have a Studio Display with my Mac Studio and I love the color accuracy. However, there's one reason to buy the Studio Display every time. I use a stand up desk with a desk treadmill all the time. My 27" LG and all the other monitors I've tried bounce around. The Studio Display is WAY rock solid.

I broke down and copped a Studio Display during a Best Buy sale last November, and I’ve been spoiled since. I had an LG Ultrawide 34” UHD monitor that served me well for over five years, but having the Apple display goes great with my M1 Max MacBook Pro, with the monitor tethered to my Caldigit TS4, another fall acquisition. As a low vision user, the sharpness and brightness of the Retina display has been a big positive. While I have a pair of reference studio monitors that sit on either side of the Studio Display, I actually once used both the monitors and the built-in speakers while watching a movie, and it was a nice experience. Nothing is forever, but I can’t see myself getting pulled away from the Studio Monitor anytime soon.

Good review and good advice!

I'm rocking an old Thunderbolt display that I've got connected to my M1 MBP. It's fine, but it's starting to show some wear and tear, especially around the cable (I got it second hand) and it can sometimes come unplugged, meaning I've got to jiggle the cable around to get it working again. I'm looking at the Studio Display and the BenQ PD3200U. I really like the idea of speakers being built in as my desk at home is very, VERY small (maybe 2' deep and a little less than 4' across). I really just want there to be fewer cables on my desk because frankly, I'm getting tired of it. I'm leaning heavily toward the Studio Display.

I love my Studio Display, will probably get another this year :) If you work with text (in my case code), you will definitely appreciate the text sharpness. And as Jerry mentions, the speakers are great for regular use :)

Not OLED, not mini-LED backlit, no HDR, not even Liquid Retina.. Is it really worth it in 2024? And does that mean current MacBooks and iPads literally have better displays than this I suppose??

I'm mostly concerned about scaling issues and blurry text. It's not that I necessarily want 5k but I just don't want any blur or scaling issues. Can I get the same sharp text on a 4k display that I would get from a windows pc and how?

We have a late 2012 iMac Retina display that’s still perfect & would keep it but it’s having power issues- had to change settings so only the screen goes to sleep but not the iMac. Looking at the mac studio & so confused about which display to get.

Have LG 27 5k and happy with it for much less than Apple Studio Display. Not so many options available and coming from 5k iMac, it was impossible for me to use a lesser resolution display. I was tempted to go back to a smaller size 24 inch 4K in order to not compromise on resolution. Glad to have found a 5k 27 as it is for me the best combination of size and res.

I have the Studio display versa and the M3 pro 16. I can see a difference between the colors between them and the studio display is more accurate

I don't have a studio display but the i9 2020 iMac and I use two Samsung 27" 4K displays for a 3 monitor set up. I wouldn't want to use them as a primary but as two additional they work great and as I don't tend to move the productivity windows from them and they are always attached I don't get all that much window scale issues. Think those two monitors were £350 each use USB C, have used them for over 3 years now and one of the reasons I havent moved over to apple silicon is that it pains me to spend more than my 5k iMac especially to get 64gb or ram then have to pay another £1500 for the display which is identical to the display I have in my 2020 iMac and the iMac still works great so I can get some more use out of it.

I use the Sony M9 it works really great with my 2020 MacBook Pro M1 13 and swap to my iPad Air M1 from time to time, it can charge both in the USB-C port with display port and KVM. Gives me 144Hz on the Mac and really good blacks with 96 local dimming zones and i also have a gaming PC connected for seem-less swapping. The speaker are the weakest point so I have a 2.1 system connected to the rca port. (Find a subwoofer essential for good sound)

I actually bought the Studio Display partly on your recommendation. When previously I was a bit horrified by the price. Having bought it I'm very happy with it. It was very expensive and I had to get a loan to pay for it. But no regrets. Glad you haven't back tracked, but just pointed out other options that have come out since the Studio Display came out.

That's what I am afraid of.

My current desktop setup: M3 Pro MacBook Pro, Studio Display (non height adjustable stand) and the CalDigit Element hub.. Additionally a 2018 12.9" iPad Pro w/Magic Keyboard and with Sidecar technology, I can utilize all three displays (iPad Pro, Studio Display & 14" M3 Pro MBP display). For sound, like you Jerry, I enjoy the Studio Display speakers but I do utilize sound output from my HomePod stereo pair speakers as well - nice because they are wireless and with macOS - it is very easy to switch audio output sources. Personally, I MUCH prefer the 5K sharpness of the Studio Display. Pity it is not an OLED display but I foresee an update years away utilizing the "soon to be released" new double OLED display tech rumored to debut with the iPad Pro refresh design this spring. Of course, if that hypothetical Studio Display with OLED tech is ever made and released, the price would probably increase by about $1000 dollars - so I won't hold my breath. Grin. Finally, with my setup - what is NOT to like. Oh, one more thing. the Studio Display webcam is "OK" and easy to use. If I wish a much better webcam, I just use my iPhone 15 Pro Max and the Belkin MagSafe iPhone mount attached to my Studio Display. PS .. The really nice thing about the Apple hardware ecosystem is that their products are of such high quality that they "last forever" which means that I can add various pieces over time and build my own home ecosystem. For example, the HomePod stereo pair & the iPad Pro were purchased in 2018, the Studio Display purchased two years ago and the M3 Pro MBP just a few months ago.

I've used the Studio Display since it was introduced. I had used other displays. By far the Studio Display is superior. More costly but worth it. Great video, thank you!

I am extremely happy with the Samsung M8, which was very affordable, something like $500 for the 32 inch size that I wanted. It has a bunch of smart TV features that I can’t make use of here in Japan, but as a monitor, it certainly is fine. For gaming, I would rather get something better like an OLED TV.

The Studio Display just doesn't fit into my computer budget so last year I purchased a 2K 27" ASUS ProArt Display to use with my M1 Studio Max. It is affordable and it scales perfectly. Naturally it isn't as sharp as 4K or 5K but it suits my purposes nicely.

I have that ASUS, first hate the blurry text, but later I install BetterDisplay app and put on 2048x1152 and now looks very sharp (not as retina) but I keep it! Great monitor for the price.

I'm using the Dell U2723QE, because the bezels are thinner, so it looks better for a dual monitor setup... But if I only used an external monitor (and didn't need a PIP in parallel for the mini with Bootcamp), I would have used the studio. The difference in quality between 4K and 5K is already there, but many people don't even notice it. It's a bit like back then with 60Hz and 120Hz on the iPhone ;)

I wanted the Studio Displays but couldn't justify the $ so wen with 2x Dell 27 4K USB-C Hub Monitor - P2721QE

Is 4k or 5k the correct question? Is'nt it more about resolution (ppi/dpi) and how the rendering is working? - So far I know, Apple does not scale fonts. Those are rendered to the screen resulotion set. If you let scale up the monitor by setting a lower screen resolution as the monitor offers, then you will see some interpolation. But probably only with a lens. So, it was just an AD vid.

The scaling thing is such a non-issue and it bothers me how much people have bought into it.

I'm using the Dell UltraSharp 43 Monitor. The Studio Display is simply too small (price is another thing). I got the 43" for literally half the cost. It lives up to the name ("Sharp") but I would've preferred a 32". I don't dispute that the Studio Display is superior but not $1000 superior, not for me anyway and certainly not at that size. My 16" M1 Pro works really with Dell's monitor--its PNP is pretty awesome as well. I can use both my Mac and my XPS at the same time.

The dealbraker with Apple Studio Display for me is 60hz. If it would have at least 120hz then I would buy it instantly. Why? Because I use mac for work and pc for gaming on the same monitor.

Using 27in 1440p just for proper scaling

Samsung 28 inch 4K is still my secondary screen. At 100% scaling it is about perfect at ~150ppi. 5K at 28 inch is perfect, at 24inch it is too small and 30 inches is too large (though I'd take it at 5K wide with 2160p height but then you are at 21:9 again). 27 inches might just scrape by, 200ppi, 125% scaling for 150ppi effective, it would be heaven. But only at 10 bit and 90Hz min + VESA, not spending big to not have that at least.

I'll wait for a new version, will be perfect or enough for the next years.

I don't get many of your points of view other than the ports to connect multiple computers to a single display. The webcam that you mentioned costs $300 and is huge and has a cable. I myself bought an ultra wide OLED (1440p for exact scaling) and it's has annoying "features" like dimming when I want large surfaces with bright elements or shitty speakers or fan noise to cool the monitor down. Furthermore these monitors seem to take forever to wake up from standby mode.

Thanks for watching, the point is that for other people all that stuff is OK. The studio display is great but it doesn’t have everything that some people want.

I just about bought a dell 27” 4K monitor for photoshop. But after watching reviews they pointed out the size of text and how small it was . So now you’re left with changing the resolution to 1440 to increase the size of the text and other tools in photoshop. So my thinking is to give up and buy apples studio display , as I think it will have larger crisper text and tools when you’re using photoshop. I think ? The bad news is I have a brand new PC gaining rig , 4090 gpu , i9 etc , and I was hoping to connect several monitors. My oled 34” as a gaming monitor, and two Apple studios for photo editing . I think this is going to create problems in windows 11 , at least I think . I have been researching using a studio monitor with windows and apparently there’s no control over calibration and brightness without some software that’s not available anymore (at least I think that’s true ) . So anyways , now if I want to use the studio monitor I’m stuck buying a Mac mini . Gotta win the lottery here soon lol 😂

As a system administrator, much of my work involves text-based tasks in a terminal. I primarily use a Macbook Air M1 connected to a 27-inch UDH (3840x2160) external monitor. For me, text clarity is crucial. While a 27-inch 5k display would be ideal, I've found a workaround by setting my Mac to upscale from 2560x1440 to 5120x2880, and then downscale it to 3840x2160 to fit the monitor. This approach significantly improves text readability compared to native 1440p on a 27-inch screen. In my view, the Apple Studio Display is not cost-effective, offering only a 20% improvement in text clarity for an 80% higher price compared to an average 27" 4k monitor. Just sharing my opinion.

Impossible on 5k. The bandwith is problem right now.

I got the standard model of the Studio Display (Tilt only model) for $1299 from Best Buy during Presidents Day. No regrets! I tried 3 different 4K models (Dell S3221QS, Dell S2722QC, and the INNOCN 27M2V) before getting the Studio Display and the Dell models would sometimes flicker. The INNOCN model didn't flicker on me, but 4K resolution really hurt my eyes after awhile. The Studio Display, however, is well-built and has a clear and sharp display out of the box. Unlike the 4K monitors, the Studio Display has great sound for a monitor, so I might not even get computer speakers or a soundbar for it. So, I happy with the Studio Display and the INNOCN monitor will go to my Acer Predator 300 PC. The 32" Dell (w/ Curved Panel) will hook up to my ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo and the 27" Dell monitor will probably hook up to my 2015 MacBook Pro. Anyway... Great video!

My display is the Dell 32 4K UHD Gaming Monitor - G3223Q. The text on my 4K 32" looks sharp. I have a 4K Dell 27" at work and I can't tell much difference between my 32". The 32 4K Dell is ESA Display HDR 600 and DCI-P3 95%, with a smooth 144hz refresh rate. I can use it to game with my MacBook Pro M2, or my custom built gaming PC. I don't get Apple! They market promotion on their MacBooks but then you loose that spec if you want to use a larger screen made by Apple, except for their crazy expensive monitor costing $4K+. If Apple introduced a 5K OLED monitor with 120hz - 144hz refresh rate, added back HDMI (like they did with the MacBooks) that was under $1,300 that could be a compelling product that I would consider as a replacement to my Dell 4K monitor. MacBook users don't always want to be confined to 16" inch Apple displays. At this point, my Dell 4K 32" monitor seems to be enough for me. I don't need built in speakers. Bluetooth AudioEngine speakers sound great for desktop use, and my Logitech 1080p Steamcam, although not as sharp as a 4k webcam, looks good enough for me.

Outside the minus side of this Monitor, the ability to control anything without pressing button on Monitor itself or using remote. Is actually interesting 😅

I’m not gettin a new monitor until it’s high refresh and glossy OLED. I can’t wait the 32” 4K 240hz OLED from spectrum. It’s unfortunate that spectrum is the ONLY company that will make that configuration in something that looks clean and modern instead of some gaudy gamer design. Beyond 4K, resolution is the least important thing to me than all the other display qualities. Also, I could never live with a monitor that only allows one input, especially at that price point. The studio display is vastly too limiting

I got a third party display for my Mac Studio, simply couldn’t stomach paying so much for a screen v similar to one I already had on my out-going trusty old imac 27 from a couple of years ago.

Displays are fabricated in large sheets rather than individually. The size/resolution of monitors and TVs is therefore inextricably linked. E.g, When 4K TVs became popular, 1080p displays became incredibly cheap. 27” 5k displays are a tiny niche of total display manufacturing, which is why there have only been 2 non-Apple monitors with that resolution. A TV size with 5k resolution is not impossible, but the improbability of it being manufactured at a reasonable cost makes it basically impossible.

I had a Studio Display. It was awesome… but then I started a new job and got a Windows machine. I sold it… swapping my MBP and work machine was annoying (it worked with it). The lack of controls was a bummer. I don’t even mind 4K with a Mac - I wish someone would make a 21” 4K display. The Mac could display a smooth “looks like 1080p” and windows could run at 150% or 200% scaling. I’d buy 2.

The studio display was dead on arrival, Apple rushed it and couldn’t wait for the next revision of lcd modules. The ProArt at that was far far superior with the only grip being the 4K resolution but somehow people weren’t aware it supported all colour spaces and VRR for all video formats.

But then Apple decided that they don’t care about non-retina displays anymore and removed the font smoothing from macOS. And thanks to that fonts now look terrible on every non-retina resolution. Both Windows and Linux are doing a much better job today.

Yep I agree

I got a “refurbished” Apple Studio 5K Display for a significant discount. No way I would bother with a discount 4K display. The problem with the docks you promote is the lack of USB C ports. No need for all those legacy USB A ports.

Lots of accessories still use usb-a, like Logitech mice for example.

For, it always comes down to the price, and whether it can be justified or not. And for me, it cannot be justified, particularly for the size.

I wanted a studio display, but it's horribly overpriced. I wound up getting a Samsung M8 for $375. I could buy 4 of them for less than a base studio display. It's more than enough for what I was after, and while I'd rather have the 5K resolution, it's really fine for everyday use. If Apple was selling the Studio Display for $799-999, I probably would have sprung for one, but at $1600? It's not gonna happen.

I’ve been trying o sell my 4k lg for ver a year so that I can get a studio display。 Even at 150 people don’t want to buy it. 1600 for the studio display?? - maybe manufacturers should start considering what Apple is doing, because I’m sure the cinema display’s image isn’t ten times better than. a j4k lg.

This is because cheap 4k displays are a dime a dozen and it’s easy to get a cheap one new. Look at prices of used studio displays, it’s high, because there is quality in the panels and the build that you won’t find in most 4k displays.

I learnt the hardway why 4K is useless on macs. I sold mine and replaced with 2 x 27” 2K monitors which are far superior to 4K displays on a mac. 2K or 5K are the only ones worth considering.

I ended up getting a 27” LG 4K monitor for $300 that is actually pretty good. It beats my pre-Retina 27” iMac with it’s Retina-like doubling up of pixels but at the same 1080p resolution. BUT it’s not a Studio Display…the LG’s speakers suck, the USB hub is useless...it only runs at USB 2.0 speeds if the cable from the laptop is also sending video…hello??? So I use the DPI port instead. It feels like the plastic that it is and the huge external power supply is ridiculous. It’s a bargain at $300 for the image quality, but for me it just comes down to price. If I had an extra $1300 to spend, I’d be viewing this on a S.D. I know people rag on Apple about pricing but my experience since the System 8 days is that Apple just builds better hardware. The displays are better, the trackpads are better, the battery life is better and so on and so on.

👍

The most important feature of a display is the display and a 27” 5k is noticeably sharper than a 27” 4k display. For me the 4k display is unacceptable even if it is cheaper and has more ports or a higher refresh rate or a better webcam.

Your whole point about the Studio Display being "stuck on a stand" is misleading, when you could have saved $400 and gotten the VESA mount ready Studio Display... exactly the same as the 4K monitor you are hyping.

That’s a good point.

The biggest problem I have is: Where is the competition? Where are the OLEDs with better overall brightness? Or mini-LEDs with enough dimming zones so that blooming isn't a problem? Where are all the 5k and 32-inch monitors that aren't curved or ultra-wide or just offer a good mix of high refresh rate, peak brightness and color accuracy? I mean, I think the Apple Studio Display is overpriced for its IPS panel. Not a single IPS panel should cost over 1,000 euros, especially if it's only 27 inches. It's simply not good enough in terms of contrast and black level. Then there's the added cost of the stands and the poor port selection. But I'm looking for a display that fits what I'm looking for, and either I have to go for cheating and try my luck or have to go way more expensive like with the Asus Pro type line and their 6k mini LEDs. its nuts. And I would say even the gamer market has gotten better monitors over the years. But they either lack good overall brightness without huge fluctuations in homogenized screen brightness. Or they're curved or they're noisy and poorly calibrated and so on. There have always been flaws. So yes, it's sad that there's no real competition for Mac users. Still, I think anyone who buys a Studio or MBP can afford a similarly priced monitor if they be better. But like always. No one steps into the field and shows that you can have similar quality and speaker but also give a better display for the money. And I think it’s possible. But no one tries to do 5k and 6k other than unreliable companies like dough.

Love my Studio Display BUT I am seriously thinking about changing to one of the newer OLED 32” monitors. Having a port for each a Mac and a console is calling me. Aside from 5K and the look of the SD, it shows its weaknesses. Let’s not mention the awful camera. Overpriced for what it is in today’s market.

5K is best, second best to 5K is…. 2K !! Far superior to 4K which fails at every display point, text to small or text to big with limited workable screen estate.

Other displays are more colour accurate and you can do more productive things with the money you don't spend on the Apple Display

Made my own 5K display: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hoaso9qbeLzAgMY.html

Thank you... I cant believe people are soo taken with the Mac display.. it has almost zero functionality. and people are spending a morgage payment to get one.

Actually, the whole video demonstrates that he isn’t.

It’s exhausting to continually see videos acting aghast at the cost of Apple products. And then people pile on. The thing is Apple has always, since day 1, operated as a provider of premium computing products and services. Their stuff costs more based on several factors. It’s like airlines. Some are premium, some are not. You choose the provider, but it doesn’t make sense to choose one and then bitch about what it is. Just choose other providers if cost is your only concern. Apple stuff is never going to be the cheapest.

@@JerrySchulze It's the KZreadrs who "review" Apple products and always center the reviews around the price. I guess it gets to the audience being catered to, but Apple has always been a premium provider. It's never going to be the only differentiator for people who are leaning toward Apple. It just gets tiring hearing price be a central aspect of reviews. I'm not saying yours was, but it's there in your video. I actually have two Studio Displays and just like Vision Pro can't be directly compared to Quest 3, Apple displays can't be directly compared to Samsungs. I'm not dissing you per se, I'm just wondering if the reviews of Apple products can be elevated beyond price comparisons. That's all.

Bad value for the price. Asus Pro Art or LG Ultrafine are far better value for the price.

Its a shit screen for that price

I gave this video a dislike because it is disingenuous. As someone who briefly tried the Apple Studio Display, I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is the best display on the market and has no comparison - especially with MacOS. The *only* disadvantage it has is costs. But retailers have placed this display on markdown over the past few months and it can be found for an extremely expensive - but not as expensive as it was - price. Now that Microsoft is focused on AI and has a roadmap to introduce spyware into Windows 11, I'm seriously contemplating returning to Mac and trying to make it my daily driver. I'm typing this on a M2 Mac Mini right now and I would like to get back to owning a Mac Studio again. I'll probably wait for the next version to get released and start the process all over again. But, in the interim, it is best to be honest with viewers. There is NO OTHER MONITOR that outperforms the Studio Display. If people can't afford to upgrade, so be it.

This is one of the worst comments I have ever received on my channel and it makes no sense. You either don’t undertsand or didn't even watch my video that explains why I love the studio display and think it is the best option for Mac users, but that I can also understand that others may have other priorities, like a high refresh rate or multi-device compatibility. Plus, the fact that you know a Studio Display is the best after using it "briefly" when I have owned it for more than 2 years is beyond laughable.
