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 an exceptional sound experience. Connectivity via Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C), three USB-C downstream ports (up to 10 Gbps) for peripherals. Adjustable tilt stand. Built-in speakers. The speakers are integrated into this monitor, so you don't need external speakers, saving space on your desk. IPS panel: brilliant 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 from awkward contortions: this monitor has a built-in USB hub. So, the appropriate connection options for your peripherals and storage devices are just a hand's reach away.
