Wow never really thought of this. But yeah how much performance or usability are you giving up by using Universal Control and/or AirPlay 2 via a base-model M1 iMac? Cause you're saving at least $400 going this route.
The 3 USB-C ports on the Apple Studio Display are 10 Gb/s vs. 5 Gb/s on the LG.
Crooked adjustable stand here too. I could see the slope as soon as I put it on my desk. 8-10 weeks shipping time for replacement is beyond frustrating

Ireland has Apples European HQ but not one Apple Store. It’s like they only came here for the tax benefits
ahhhh I would go a bit crazy. Can you still use the old one until the new one comes or do you need to send it back right away?Ireland has Apples European HQ but not one Apple Store. It’s like they only came here for the tax benefits
waiting to hear back on a return exception so I can hold onto crooked one until the replacement arrives. Fingers crossed. I think 10 weeks wait would push me towards full refund and a different monitor

Thanks. Inexplicably (and embarrassingly), no I wasn't on 14.3... I am now and I have CS. The picture still looks like a VGA cam from the 90's with vaseline on it, but at least CS works....
Can’t imagine paying $400 more for a crooked stand. I wish Apple can sort it out for you.
I still use 27 inch Apple Cinema Display with 2013 Mac Pro. I ordered the thunderbolt 4 to thunderbolt 2 adapter to use with an incoming Apple Studio computer.
Apple studio monitor would get the USB camera and Mic off my desk, and do 5k. Any real news of them helping out the ”poor” camera complaints I am hearing?
Also, how heavy is this display? I had VESA adapter for the Cinema, but it was too heavy for most arms.

Another point I didn't notice prior to today. This monitor is thick, yes, but it's good to hold when I was moving it around. I also moved the 27 inch iMac yesterday and the bottom edge cuts into my hand and I felt painful moving it.
For those who have ASD shipped from Apple. How long did the shipping take?
I was quoted delivery for March 24 to 31 and my credit card was booked on the 24th.
It's almost 29th now. The online status is still "Preparing to Ship".
Where does yours ship from? If from China, it looks highly unlikely that I will get mine in time.

Depends, I know in the UK mine was 'shipped' from a local distribution centre, and not China directly... it arrived next day.
Does the ASD have these reference modes even? Mine never showed them.. I have it attached through a thunderbolt 4 hub though..
Hopefully they come through. I was lucky enough to find one on launch day at the Apple Store and it is perfectly level. I have a VESA mount nano-texture display on order but I might just keep the height-adjustable standard display.
I still look at this every day, and think it’s a beautiful piece of Tech (all be it very expensive!)
First time I dared to buy the VESA option, but boy, does it look great

What stand is that?
