Fully immerse yourself in creativity, entertainment, and more with the 27" Apple Studio Display. With its 27" active viewing area and exceptionally thin bezels that allow you to fully focus on the 5120 x 2880 resolution 5K Retina screen, the Studio Display is designed to elevate your computing experience. Support for 1.07 billion colors and wide P3 color delivers lifelike photos and videos.

There is also a six-speaker audio system comprised of four woofers and two tweeters that immerses you in music and videos using Dolby Atmos virtual surround sound.

Connect your system through the Thunderbolt 3 port, which delivers up to 96W of power to your MacBook, iPad Pro, iPad Air, and other compatible devices. The rear panel also includes three 10 Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C ports that allow you to quickly connect phones, external storage devices, tablets, and other peripherals to your computer through the monitor. Its included stand provides a 30° tilt for optimal viewing.

Design
The Studio Display features a refined all-aluminum chassis with slim borders, housing a stunning 5120 x 2880 resolution 5K Retina screen that provides 218 ppi (pixels per inch) for sharp details.
Finish
The Apple Studio Display is available in two versions: one with a standard glass finish and another with nano-texture glass. Both are engineered for low reflectivity, but the nano-texture finish offers enhanced glare reduction for those who are a bit more sensitive or work under harsh lighting conditions.
True Tone Technology
True Tone technology utilizes an ambient light sensor to measure and adjust the color intensity of the display for accurate colors based on your environment.
Bionic A13 Chip
A powerful Apple Bionic A13 chip drives the display's advanced features, including Center Stage, spatial audio, the directional microphone array, and Apple Siri.
Front 12MP Ultra Wide Camera with Center Stage
An Ultra Wide webcam is built into the display, featuring a 12MP sensor and a 122° field of view, making it suitable for FaceTime and the Center Stage feature.
Center Stage
Center Stage uses the Ultra Wide camera and machine learning to change the way you participate in video calls. As you move around, it automatically pans to keep you centered in the frame. When others join in or leave the call, the view expands or zooms in. Center Stage works with FaceTime and other video conferencing apps for an even more engaging experience.
Six-Speaker Cinematic Sound
Four force-cancelling woofers deliver bold, deep bass with minimum distortion while the two high-performance tweeters provide accurate mids and crisp highs to fully immerse you in audio.
Spatial Audio
Experience movie-theater or concert-hall sound with the Dolby Atmos virtual surround-sound system.
Microphone Array
The studio quality three-microphone array uses directional beamforming so that your voice comes in loud and clear, not your background noise.
Reference Modes
To adapt to the variety of standards that content creators work with in media such as digital cinema (P3-DCI), photography (P3-D65), HDTV video (BT.709-BT.1886), design and print (P3-D50), Internet and web (sRGB), and so on, Reference Modes reconfigure the display to match. It optimizes values like color space, white point, gamma, and brightness. Alternatively, users can also set up their own custom profile as needed.
Tilt Adjustable Stand
This display includes a stand that allows you to adjust the tilt by 30°. Users have the option of purchasing a tilt and height adjustable stand or a VESA adapter for landscape or portrait mode mounting.

    Great Monitor, but just ok with olderiPad

    By Chris
    Rated 5 out of 5
    Date: 2023-03-30

    Monitor works great, super clear. Only gripe is with 4th gen iPad you don't get full screen, you only get mirroring (not option of second monitor) and when iPad sleeps the screen stays on so only way to shut off monitor is to unplug iPad. I think some of this is better with M1 iPad.

    Great monitor!

    I was initially going to try to use an old Apple 23 Cinema Display I have, but after reading about the various monitors out there, I became aware of scaling problems and I just wanted it to work out of the box. I didn't know it had a Surround Sound Music System in it. Being a musician, that is a sweet plus. The size and clarity is perfect for me.

    The speakers are great, camera is pretty bad, screen is nice albeit a bit contrasty compared to other monitors I have calibrated the same (benq sw270c). I wanted this for a while and now that I have it, I know I could've lived without it.

    I feel so lucky and privileged to be able to work with this display and my new Mac Studio. I am still to discover all endless possibilities of this display. My big thank you to PayBoo cards financing option to be able to continue my work uninterrupted with these amazing tools.

    Color a bit different from old 27 iMac

    By Timothy
    Rated 4 out of 5
    Date: 2023-03-30

    Connected to a new Mac Studio as a replacement for my old 27 iMac. I find that the colors are bit different from the iMac but I'm getting used to it. The colors are not quite as vivid. Other than that it's a beautiful display and although it has the same visible screen size it's smaller overall than the 6 yr old iMac it replaces. (27 in iMac is no longer available). So long as connection standards do not change I believe this setup will be cheaper to update than an iMac. Not sure what I can do about the perceived color change.

    Awesome

    In the reviews the main complaint is it's expensive and that it is. BUT I LOVE IT!! The 5k image is perhaps only a bit better than 4K, but with the speakers and camcorder all as one package it reduces all the clutter from my desk. And I do use it for Zoom and Webex meetings - the Center Stage process just eliminates all the nonsense of adjusting the camcorder constantly. It just works GREAT!! It is expensive, but money well spent. :)

    I posted this original question, and turns out it DOES work. I ordered the monitor anyway, mainly to use with my work laptop (a newer MB Pro) and was delighted to find that the T3 to T2 adapter does allow me to use this monitor with my older Mid-2015 MB Pro.
