In honesty, the M1 iMac is still AWESOME value considering you are getting a fully functional display with an actual OS. The Studio display is great if you have an existing MPB, Mac mini etc. Really wish we saw a higher refresh rate but at least you don't have to pay $1000 for the stand like on the Pro Display XDR :) Still remember that in the crowd at WWDC hahaha. Which display are you getting?

[@petrub27]

1600 usd for a sdr display at 60 hz. no from me

[@_captainaiden_]

iMac 🖥

[@martinjmusic]

Will be getting the Studio Display, as soon as it is available in stores without 8-10w wait time… 2200€ here in Austria, hoping for a discount to 2000€ or less.

[@jonshin31]

Studio display for me sitting on my desk - so close to worth it for me, should’ve been same price as the LG 5k (and that one discontinued), and webcam really should’ve been better. Of course pro motion / mini led would’ve been great but probably then it’s a 2500 monitor.

[@dennismark82]

Hi Karl. Is the XDR less bright (500nits) SDR compared to the studio display at (600nits) ? What’s your take on regular usage and photo editing? Thanks !!

[@Hektormydog]

Thanks for the 3 displays in comparison. How does the color/contrast/brightness between the iMAC and Studio Display actually look? Is a the iMAC just a smaller version of the SD? Thanks

[@bricksuntold]

Studio Display is very tempting option. I could use my MBP display for HDR content creation while keeping timeline etc. other stuff on the bigger screen.

[@rjayt88]

Thanks for the comparison with the iMac too. I was wondering if one type of glass the standard glass is easier to clean without scratching the screen if you use a microfiber cloth. I currently have an old iMac that has a very glossy display but is easy to clean. One thing I don't like about the new iMac is the white frame around the display.

nice review but sidw by side is there any real difference between xdr vs studio display? Is it moresharp ,better color accuracy or with naked eye there is no noticeable difference?

Hi! I'm looking to get a new desktop to use architecture programs (rhino, AutoCAD etc). I was wondering if anyone knows if you can use the Mac 24" as a display for the mac studio desktop box? I know it sounds silly, but the iMac is cheaper than the studio display whilst including all the accessories. Would it be possible to connect iMac to the Studio?

The M1 iMac is a no brainer… an amazing display and the M1 chip. I have it and love using it… will be rocking with it for the next few years easily.

[@aalmadatavares]

Hello Karl, thanks for the awesome video. Is that possible to use iMac M3 as a monitor for my MacBook Pro? Thanks!

[@Scootir185]

Nice comparison. I think the XDR is also part of a sales trick Apple (and everyone else) uses to make their products look reasonably priced called anchoring. If you saw $1599.00 compared to other similar monitors you’d see it as outrageous, but they anchor the notion that a monitor can easily cost $6K then suddenly $1600 starts to seem almost reasonable.

[@Slurpy2k8]

So Apple priced the XDR based on what they planned to price a product that came out years later? Doubt it. The XDR actually isnt outrageously priced, it competes with reference class monitors that are 20-30K and even exceeds them. And there's nothing really out there you can compare the price of the Studio Display to.

[@Scootir185]

@@Slurpy2k8 Didn’t say the XDR was a bad monitor for the money But it’s still crazy expensive. And yup - it’s pretty much the standard playbook to structure pricing in this way. Apple wins both ways - they get to sell some expensive monitors to true professionals but ultimately and more importantly leverage it to make a $1600 60Hz IPS display seem like it’s not overpriced. And that will help them sell a lot of those, probably at much higher margin.

[@speedzero7478]

@@Scootir185 Very true. I have the LG Ultrafine 5k and was curious about the Studio display. It wasn't enough of an improvement for me to go out and purchase it. Have to say I was disappointed. The XDR should be seen in person. Aside from its ridiculous price, it has an amazing picture on it.

[@KR1275]

@@speedzero7478 For the same price you can buy a Eizo Coloredge. Way better than any Apple display.

[@alexandrevery]

@@Slurpy2k8 true ! And don't forget that the XDR is the only 32'' 6K monitor on the market. That doesn't explain the price (this you did well) but it's a fact : if you want a 32'' "retina" (220 ppp / smoothing @2x), no other monitor can do that today Monitor manufacturers (LG, Samsung, etc) could easily propose a 32'' 6K thunderbolt monitor with just an IPS LED panel (but a good one), this would be a far less expensive model while allowing them comfortable benefits, but they prefer to fight on the field of cheap 27'' 4K ... if someone understand why .... ?

Loved your video. Probably the best to compare these 3. But i think you missed keeping 24 & Studio together for us to see the screen size difference :( But great video. Just the one which will help a lot to make that decision here in India where we don't have Studio in the shops to see it in physical form. And I almost got a heart attack when you showed the small nick on the display. I am very confused between 24 + 1Tb SSD + 16GBUM OR 27 + Mac Mini 1TB + 16GBUM I am using 21.5 + 1TB + 8GB late 2013. I definitely want a bigger screen with faster 4k edits.

That was nice commentary KC. I liked the idea of highlighting the overkill aspect of the XDR Pro and the utility to price for the iMac. Really excellent points! I guess my issue with the "Studio" is that it isn't pro motion for the money. That is just a gripe, but it's disappointing. You are paying a steep premium for the package deal, speakers and excellent camera. . .

Who needs iMac Pro? iMac Pro was released because of bad thermals and design mistakes of trashcan Mac Pro. Now, Mac Studio is perfectly fine and there's no need to integrate it in the display.

It's a reasonable guess, considering that this display has so many bugs. They're just not sure about it.

In the week that I have had it, the coatings on it are extremely impressive at controlling glare on a glossy display and it gets more than bright enough to see even during the brightest part of the day. Unless you absolutely cannot tolerate glare, then I don't think the nano-texture finish is worth it.

However, if you prefer using an All-in-One computer the colorful 24-inch iMac is 100 percent the way to go. Also, if ordering an iMac please get the top of the line version with its matching mouse, track-pad, and full sized (with number pad) keyboard at about $2,000 (US). Trust me, with a computer from Apple there is nothing like buying a full and complete system to meet all your needs, both now and for many years into the future (smile...smile).

Now we know why Apple didn’t release a minimal bezel iMac 🤷🏽‍♂️

First of all iMac is a computer not just a monitor which means you have to get a separate computer to use it as a display, why do you need an M1 Max MBP connected to IMac display, this just doesn't make sense

I had to opt for the studio display because I'm poor

The monitor doesn’t support HDR and you say hdr content looks great?

[@techinrl9869]

From what Apple Insider says, it does support HDR, but doesn’t get any brighter than its normal 600 nits. They showed a KZbin video playing side by side with a Studio Display and the LG equivalent and the KZbin video showed the same video playing on the Studio Display in HDR while oddly it was not in HDR on the LG.

[@ghost-user559]

It supports HDR but they cannot legally claim it because it doesn’t have the full brightness to qualify for that label. So you would not get the full blacks or whites of a tv or display with the full “hdr” label, but for all intents and purposes it is fully capable of viewing HDR content (although with a reduced white and black range).

[@techinrl9869]

@@ghost-user559 Isn't there an HDR400 certification? Granted, most people consider that fake HDR, but it's still a certification standard. Most real HDR requires 800-1000 nits but I've seen some monitors with HDR400 certification.

[@ghost-user559]

@@techinrl9869 Well that’s kind of what I mean, it doesn’t pass certification because of the brightness limitations, but it CAN technically play HDR content in a less dynamic range. That’s the strange thing about all these silly LCD lobby and USBC and Thunderbolt and HDMI standards is they are all so specific, yet the manufacturers are all so different in the quality of cables and ports and components vary so drastically. So for HDR content this screen would function within its range of brightness to view HDR, but on a technicality it doesn’t have the contrast or brightness ratio to qualify for the official standards, which is actually why Apple doesn’t advertise it as HDR, but that’s interesting because they still gave the customer the ability to utilize HDR content. So it’s very interesting to include functionality you can’t advertise just for the benefit of the viewer. That’s a rare thing for corporations, so I can’t help but think they had supply chain issues that prevented full HDR implementation on these devices, and so they essentially “binned” the Display brightness capacity at the last minute until the mini led models.
