The price sounds good at first. But I assume that there are taxes on top of that, right?specifications for the 5K display are on ASUS' website:

I'm looking forward to the first reviews to see if the LuxPixel AntiGlare solution is any good.
I am excited about this display. I am most interested in these features:specifications for the 5K display are on ASUS' website:

Great !
But to tell the truth would be more interested in the 6K (for the increased size), having currently a 27" 4K, would like to go to 30 in 5 or 6K
But if that USD 799 price is correct why not ! (doubt it is though ..)

I have been sucked into the Apple interoperability thing. The way my Mac Studio, Ipad, iPhone, and Apple Watch work together is a real treat. How does this carry over into the Studio display?
It does, but not to the same degree as other things. Enables "hey, siri" on the Mac. Runs at Apple's preferred PPI and is color calibrated similarly to Apple's other displays, so images and text remain consistent across your Apple stuff. Built-in speakers and camera 'just work' (and I believe the Studio Display's camera gets a bad rap, though I've turned off Center Stage for video meetings like on Zoom & WebEx as I personally don't like the effect when in those meetings). The Studio Display also supports automatic rotation on macOS, so if you've got the VESA mount on a rotatable arm, the screen image and camera image will automatically rotate -- I've got two on VESA arms and it's a really handy feature. I also have one on Apple's height/tilt adjustable stand, and while expensive, it's an over-engineered true beauty.
I do kind of wish they supported more than one computer input, however, as I'd like to be able to plug my iPad Pro in at times without having to disconnect one from my MacBook Pro, but it's not really a deal breaker for me.
The 27" 5k is available for preorder at B&H:

No idea when they will actually be available, though.

I really have been looking for a 5K monitor for the upcoming apple silicon mac mini/studio, but also wanted some compatiblibly with 4k HDMI for an xbox series X. It looks like this is the first 5k monitor that has both.
I an hoping to see someone review the console aspect of this monitor soon.
Oh, and here is a link to the manual for the monitor:

$800 for a good looking 27 inch 5K monitor is a good price!
Indeed, although I really hesitate compared to a 27 4k, 30 5k I wouldn't hesitate at all
How do you like it ? I don't like its look with the big camera on top that much, and its price
But btw, is it the only monitor using that 6k panel ?

It and the Apple Pro XDR are the only 2 6K panels.
Other than the aesthetics — I hate the big camera, and don’t use it because it isn’t as good as my old Logi webcam — the monitor is very good. 90+% of the XDR at <50% of the cost.
It does have a matte coating, which is a bit of a bummer. Colors don’t pop like they do on Apple displays.
But it is a USB-C hub and provides power over USB-C. It has speakers, which are serviceable. And I’ve never had an issue with the displaying failing to turn on, etc., when my computer wakes up.
If they sold a glossy version without the camera, it would be the perfect monitor for me I think.
The ppi is essentially the same as the 27” 5K displays, but you get more resolution with pixel doubling of course. It’s resolution is slightly different than the Pro XDR oddly enough (more vertical pixels), but Sonoma and Sequoia handle it without problems.

You said it. If the Dell U3224KBA had a glossy panel (like the Dell U2715K, for example, which is almost 10 years old but delivers 5K), then I would have bought the 6K from Dell straight away. That's the only reason I didn't, the matte coating!
Now I'm waiting to see what alternatives the year 2025 has to offer in 6K or 8K and hopefully with at least 120Hz, provided Thunderbolt 5 is used. Hopefully a Nvidia 5090 will offer DisplayPort 2.x and/or Thunderbolt 5, too.
The 5K 27" is now for sale on B&H
