Product details
Studio Display. Made for Mac. 27-inch 5K Retina display with a resolution of 5120 x 2880 pixels, 600 cd/m² brightness, and support for one billion colors. Anti-reflective coating reduces glare. 12 MP ultra-wide camera with a 122° field of view and Center Stage mode. 6-speaker system with woofers for a premium sound experience. Connectivity via Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C), three USB-C downstream ports (up to 10 Gbps) for peripherals. Adjustable tilt stand. Integrated speakers. The speakers are built into this monitor, so you don't need external speakers, saving space on your desk. IPS panel: vibrant colors from every angle. This monitor features an IPS panel (In-Plane Switching). The IPS technology offers two major advantages: a very wide viewing angle, allowing multiple viewers to easily see the content at the same time, and high color accuracy. This makes the monitor suitable for color-sensitive applications such as photo editing. Integrated USB hub. Save yourself awkward contortions: this monitor has an integrated USB hub. So the right connection options for your peripherals and storage devices are just a reach away.
