Overview

The Studio Display is the first Apple-branded consumer display released since the Apple Thunderbolt Display, which was released in 2011 and discontinued in 2016.[2] In the interim, Apple worked with LG to design the Thunderbolt 3-enabled UltraFine line, consisting of a 21.5-inch 4K and a 27-inch 5K display.[3]

The Studio Display features a 27-inch, 5K LED-backlit panel, with 5120×2880 resolution at 218 pixels per inch and 600 nits of brightness, an increase from the 500 nits panel used in the LG UltraFine and 27-inch iMac.[4][5] The panel also supports P3 wide color and True Tone technology.[6] It does not support HDR content.[7] It also includes a six-speaker system with force-cancelling woofers that support spatial audio and Dolby Atmos, and a three-microphone array that supports "Hey Siri".[8] On the rear of the display is a Thunderbolt 3 port that provides up to 96 W of host charging for MacBooks, and three 10 Gb/s USB-C ports.

The Studio Display includes an Apple A13 system on a chip to power audio and webcam processing. The built-in webcam supports Center Stage, introduced with the iPad Pro (5th generation), which pinpoints the positions of the users and automatically tracks the camera view accordingly to perspectively center them.[9] The display also is reported to contain 64 GB of internal storage but only using 2 GB at a time. It is possible this is simply a side effect of the use of the A13 chip, likely the one found in the base model iPhone 11.[10]

The Studio Display comes with three mounting options: a tilt-adjustable stand, a tilt- and height-adjustable stand similar to the Pro Display XDR, and a VESA mount. The mounts are built into the display and are not user interchangeable, but can be reconfigured by an Apple Store or authorized service provider after purchase.[11][12] Like the Pro Display XDR, it can also be configured with the optional laser-etched "nano-texture" glass finish to reduce glare.

The Studio Display draws main power via a proprietary 1.8 m (6 ft) cable, which requires a special tool to unplug.[13]

The display comes with a braided 1 m (3 ft) Apple Thunderbolt 3 cable in the box. Apple optionally separately sells longer braided Apple Thunderbolt 4 Pro cables, in lengths of 1.8 m (6 ft) and 3 m (10 ft).

Also, The Studio Display support DisplayPort 1.4 with Display Stream Compression 1.2 (DSC). The Apple A13 SoC connect to the Thunderbolt 3 Controller via USB 2.0 (480Mb/s).

Compatibility

The Studio Display is compatible with all Macs with Thunderbolt 3 or Thunderbolt 4 running macOS Monterey 12.3 and later:

The Studio Display works with other systems supporting DisplayPort, including Windows-based systems, but only supported Macs have access to features beyond display, speakers and webcam.[14] Intel Macs running Windows via Boot Camp are supported with version 6.1.17.[15]

It is also compatible with the following iPads running iPadOS 15.4 and later:
