Refurbished 27 In Display Apple

Used to connect Apple 27 Thunderbolt Display to Dell PC.

I was replacing a 5K retina iMac Pro, so I was nervous about this, but a 27 monitor wasn't enough for my aging eyes anymore. I really wanted the other Apple brand 34 monitor, but we all know how expensive and old that technology is. And their other monitors are also 27, so Apple was out. After watching a lot of videos and reading reviews, I landed on this monitor as a companion to my new Mac Studio. While this monitor does not hold up to the Retina display quality, it is good enough. I don't mean that as a knock. I mean it's a high quality monitor that is what you need it to be. It doesn't output at Apple nit levels, but in my office (which has 6 curtained windows), I never used the Apple brightness over 1/3rd of what it could do. I have used this monitor at full brightness with the curtains pulled back, and it's more than enough. I'm torn on the matte finish of the display. On one hand, it has almost no glare, which is great! But I'm just used to the glossy/glassy coating on Apple which feels like a crystal clear image, where on this monitor, if your font is too small, you can start to see the pixel breakdown. But once you get everything configured properly, you won't want to go back. I got this monitor because I needed more space on the desktop (the virtual desktop I mean) and because my eyes are aging or degrading (I have double vision and other undiagnosed eye problems, so I'm not the average user). After switching to this monitor, I have less strain on my eyes. I don't know if it is due to the larger screen (I am using about the same font size though) or was due to the glossy screen I was using before. As far as quality, you can find plenty of reviews on the color gamut and quality. I'm no expert, but the image clarity and color space appears to be great. I don't notice any washout or bright spots on the display. If you pair this with a Mac studio, you'll be very happy.

It was time to replace my 6 year old iMac 27. I kept waiting for a new 27" iMac to be released but it appears that Apple has decided to not make them any longer, instead moving towards Mac Studios. I decided that I just needed to accept that and ordered a new Mac Studio M2 MAX from the Apple Store. Not a review but BH Photo had the Apple Studio Display for $150 less than the Apple Store and using my PayBoo Card I saved on the sales tax, so my savings were over $200.00. I think I made the right decision. This display is fantastic. Bright, sharp, superb 5K Resolution. It's slightly smaller overall the my old iMac (due to not having the computer inside). Exceptional accuracy without any calibration! The sound is also impressive, with its Six-speaker system with force-cancelling woofers, so good that I disconnected my old HK SoundSticks/Sub Woofer. The three-mic array is Studio Quality. My home office lighting is very neutral so I didn't need to go for the Nano Glass upgrade, The standard glass is already engineered for extremely low reflectivity. As for the Stand, the Standard Tilt only stand was fine for my needs and it's absurd what Apple want to charge for their Tilt and Height Adjustable Stand. Overall this Apple Studio Display is a major improvement over my aging 27" iMac Retina. Worth a bit of what a spent!!!

My new 2020 Apple 27" iMac with Retina 5K Display is just perfect. I couldn't be happier. As a graphic designer the iMac display renders my images beautifully. And did I mention the speed when working in Photoshop? Off the charts. I bought the extended keyboard. The Magic Mouse works well too. Had to purchase an external hard drive and Apple USB SuperDrive. I'll wait on the new M1 chip version for now. Thanks B&H.

Just received the 27 Apple Studio Display and running it on the MacMini M1. Also added from B&H the Yamaha 8 sub woofer. Image and sound quality incredible!! Spent some time getting the settings worked out using the display's fantastic sound along with the Yamaha sub woofer with excellent final results. Another plus for B&H too with fast free over night shipping and excellently packaged items. Fedx driver was also very courteous and careful as he handled both items.

It works well with my new Mac studio and 27 apple display setup. Shoot still photos withmy drone images, capture 4K video DJI from various camera and my Canon DSLR cameras. Faster than my older USB 3.0 UDMA reader.

This adapter was the perfect solution to connect my Thunderbolt 27 Display.

Installed in a new iMac 27”. Saved me hundreds over buying from Apple.

Bought it for my one year old iMac i5 27. Registered with Apple just fine.
