The three-day Apple Mega Event, which correctly predicted the multi-day Apple "Experience" launch event based on rumors from www.slashcam.de/news/single/Drei-Tage-Apple-Mega-Event-mit-Einsteiger-MacBook--19827.html, enters its second day, bringing not only an updated Studio Display but also a completely new top model, the Studio Display XDR. Both are 27" and feature a 5K resolution (5120 x 2880 pixels), 10-bit color depth, and support for the DCI-P3 color space—however, Apple positions them very differently: the Studio Display costs 1,699 Euros and is a slightly technically updated version of the four-year-old Studio Display, still relying on full-area LED backlighting.
;) Apple Studio Display and Studio Display XDR The Studio Display XDR, which is more than twice as expensive, uses—  as predicted by rumors—advanced new Mini-LED backlighting. It also replaces the now very dated Pro Display XDR, which was introduced back in 2019—the product page now redirects to the new one. Users get current top-tier technology here but have to sacrifice some desktop space, as the new XDR Display is only 27" instead of 32" and 5K instead of 6K. ;) Apple Studio Display XDR Apple Studio Display XDRThe Studio Display XDR is Apple&s new top display ("the best Pro Display in the world") thanks to a Mini-LED panel with 2,304 distinct lighting zones, enabling very good contrast (a contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1). The 27" 5K Retina XDR Display of the Studio Display XDR achieves peak brightness of 1,000 nits in SDR and 2,000 nits in HDR mode, supports the large P3 and Adobe RGB color spaces as well as over 80 percent of Rec. 2020, and offers dynamic refresh rates from 47 up to 120 Hz via Adaptive Sync. The interfaces of the Studio Display XDR include two Thunderbolt 5 ports (one for connecting to the computer, the other for daisy-chaining further Thunderbolt 5 peripherals or displays) as well as two USB-C ports. Up to 140W (even more than the Studio Display) is available via Thunderbolt 5 to quickly charge even power-hungry MacBooks like the 16" MacBook Pro. The Studio Display XDR comes with a 12MP webcam that uses the Center Stage function to ensure users stay in the center of the frame when moving. Also included is a ring of three microphones with directional beamforming, as well as an immersive 6-speaker system with 3D Audio support. ;) Apple Studio Display XDR Pleasingly, unlike the now discontinued Pro Display XDR, the tilt- and height-adjustable stand is now included in the price and no longer needs to be purchased separately for 1,099 Euros (though it costs 400 Euros extra for the Pro Display). The stand allows for 105 mm of height adjustment and has a counterbalance arm designed to make the display feel weightless and hold the set position precisely. Apple Studio DisplayApple has given the "new" Studio Display only a somewhat disappointing technical upgrade: the essential panel specifications remain unchanged: it still features uniform LED backlighting, a peak brightness of 600 nits, and a refresh rate of 60 Hz. ;) Apple Studio Display XDR Like the XDR model, the Studio Display also features a 12MP Center Stage camera, three integrated microphones, and 6 speakers (as was already the case with the 2022 predecessor model). The upgrade essentially only concerns the interfaces: instead of Thunderbolt 3, there is now the current Thunderbolt 5, as well as, for the first time, a downstream Thunderbolt port for daisy-chaining up to four Studio Displays or other accessories, plus two (instead of three) USB-C ports. The Studio Display delivers up to 96W of charging power via Thunderbolt 5, enough to charge a 14" MacBook Pro. ;) Apple Studio Display XDR Ports Versions and PricesBoth new displays are available in versions with standard glass or Nano-texture glass, and with a tilt-adjustable stand, a tilt- and height-adjustable stand, or a VESA adapter. The new Studio Display with a tilt-adjustable stand and standard glass costs 1,699 Euros; the version with Nano-texture glass is 300 Euros more expensive, and an additional 400 Euros is added for the height-adjustable stand. The Apple Studio Display XDR, on the other hand, already includes the tilt- and height-adjustable stand as standard and costs 3,499 Euros, or 3,799 Euros with Nano-texture glass. Both models can be pre-ordered starting March 4th and will be available from Wednesday, March 11th.  more infos at bei www.apple.comdeutsche Version dieser Seite: Kleines Upgrade und neues Topmodell - Apple Studio Display und Studio Display XDR |
