Quick question for owners. Are any of you using this with a Mac Mini? I'm thinking of buying this combo with the 16GB of RAM and 1TB of SSD in the mini. I just watched the below review where the reviewer is comparing Mini v Studio and he thinks the Mini slows down trying to power the 5K ASD. For a very non-demanding user like me who uses the Mac to web browse, MS office work, watching content etc. No video/photo editing and no gaming. Will this be an issue or should I think of getting the basic Studio?

Total nonsense, I'm running my Studio Display off the fanless MacBook Air M1 with only 8GB ram... and it's smooth as butter with a similar workflow as you... don't waste your money!

Great. The Studio is so much more money, I wasn't looking forward obviously to shelling out for it and for power and performance I clearly do not need.

For anyone running their display from their MacBook... do you notice the fans still running when it's asleep? Assuming it's because it's still charging the MacBook, but seems kinda weird.
Tempted to log with Apple Support, see what they say.
Anyone find the standard height to low? I´m 6´3 and I don´t want any raiser on the desk. I put my actual 27 Dell at 48cm and I can´t tell if its OK or if I want it to be OK so I don´t spendd 400dls more on the height adjustable hahaha.
The tilt helps a little I think It should be fine...

For what it's worth, I did some measurements when trying to decide. The top of the ASD is 47.80 cms and the top of the actual screen is 46.53 and you'd want to be eye level with that for posture etc. I have a 27in iMac and the top of that is 51.6 cms and the top of that screen is 49.06 and that screen is perfect for me at 6 foot.
I'm personally going with the height-adjustable stand. It's a rip off here, €460 extra which is $507 but I want to keep this screen for years and I don't like the various risers as they're too high.

I had an iMac for years and I can´t remember complaining about the screen height (and never used any riser or something like that). But the screen is far lower on the ASD for what you are saying, compared to the iMac... 2.5 cm, is a lot on the screen height.

How do you find the colour uniformity compared to the MBP screen? Its tough to say from the photo, but the SD seems quite uniform to me, and on a par with the laptop.

Yep... running off a 14" MBP in clamshell mode and with it asleep I can put my cheek by the top of the monitor and still feel air coming out. So it seems like the fans never stop.

One thing I am wondering about, why the airflow is not the other way around ?
The amount of dust collected on a table would be bigger then floating in the air at the the back.
(I know reversing is not an option)

I will buy a usb-c hub for my other cables (€10-€20) and I'll use the webcam of the MacBook Pro when I need to switch it on, otherwise I could buy it (€50)
