    Desk View support for Apple Studio Display software update possible?

    With the new M4 iMacs and M4 MacBook Pros getting a 12 MP Facetime camera with Center Stage and Desk View, what are the chances that Apple will update the Studio Display’s software to also support Desk View seeing it also has the same 12 MP Facetime camera that supports Center Stage?

    Speakers for Zoom Calls to replace Studio Display Speakers

    I'm finding that the Apple Studio Display's speakers are not great for Zoom calls. With some participant's in the call there is just too much bass coming thru and it is hard to clearly hear the person. I sometimes switch to my M1 MBA's speakers for Zoom meetings as I can hear people "more...

    Apple Studio Display or…

    Looking at the ASD with nano and ergonomic stand. Looking at the €2.500 price tag ($2,725). Is it worth it or should I buy another monitor with comparable speakers and a webcam?

    Recommendations for a 32" 5K monitor for M3 MBP that isn't $5,000 (APD XDR)

    I need to replace my failing work monitor - a 2010 27" ASD - for my new (incoming) M3 16" MBP. As the title explains, I LOVE the design and quality of Apple's 27" Studio Display, but I really want something at 32", and I'm unwilling to pay $5,000 for the 32" APD XDR. I'm willing to pay a...

    Costco has the Apple Studio Display discounted through Aug. 20 for $1350. It says "online price," so I don't know if this applies to in-store sales or not.

    connect PS5 HDMI to Thunderbolt converter (Apple Studio Display)

    Hi everyone, I'm looking to purchase an Apple Studio Display, but I need to be able to connect my PS5 to it as well. I've seen that there are ways to convert HDMI signal to the display without audio, or using an Elgato within the Mac, but I'm hoping there is a converter out there that is just...

    Triple Monitor - 1 6k, 2 5k

    Hi, I am upgrading monitors and was considering using 1 Pro Display XDR in the middle, and 2 LG Ultrafine 5ks vertically on the side. Over time I might upgrade the LGs to Studio Displays. If upgrading them now would make the setup work better, I'd consider it. I know all of this would work a...

    Should I buy the Apple Studio display or a nve .m2 dock with the dell U2713H?

    Thank you for reading this question. In 2013 I became the proud owner of a late 2012 Mac mini. I already owned a dell U2713H display, Logitech wired keyboard, Logitech Z3 or 4 speakers, Logitech 720p webcam and a LaCie external 7200 rpm external HDD. Somewhere along the road I got myself a...

    Fellow Viewfinity S9 waiters, worried about matte finish?

    Ever since the announcement of the Viewfinity S9, I’ve been eagerly awaiting pricing and launch date timing. For the likely many others in my shoes, is there any worry that Samsung is going to drop the ball and add a terrible, cheap matte finish that will degrade the picture quality? Almost...

    Apple Studio Display: VESA wall mounting

    Hi everyone - I'm very close to ordering an Apple Studio Display (PPI is key), but trying to decide between the default stand and the VESA mount option (a clean desk is priority for me). The challenge I have around VESA mounting is largely how to hide the power cord (I already have cable runs...

    Apple Studio Display "Overpowered" Big UPS...

    Weird situation posted as an FYI as much as anything else. I have a M1 Mac Mini (base) connected to an Apple Studio Display. Both have been trouble-free. I got home from work at 6am today and turned on my MM/ASD to check email. Used it for about an hour, no issues. Put it to sleep (via ...

    My work provide me with a Lenovo ThinkPad L14 Gen 2 (model 20X6) laptop. It has both a USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 and USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port that support DisplayPort 1.4. I was expecting that when I hook this laptop up to my Apple Studio Display with a Thunderbolt 4 cable, it would work. But it doesn't. The...
