Apple made premium displays for Macs for years, then it didn’t make any display for years. Professionals were upset, so Apple made an ultra-premium display a few years ago.
But professionals who liked Apple’s premium (versus ultra-premium) displays were upset, so Apple recently made a premium display. Cool, right? Not so fast.
The Apple Studio Display is overpriced! The thing costs $1599, and that’s before you add $400 for a height-adjustable stand. C’mon!
It’s also just an LED-backlit LCD. Apple makes mini LED iPad Pros and MacBook Pros, and the ultra-premium display has local dimming zones too! How could Apple release an LED-backlit LCD monitor in 2022?!
