The stand can allow the user to adjust the monitor with little expended effort. A stand can position the display to accommodate users and desktop surfaces of different heights, sizes, and postures. So it’s probably best not to ask what Apple might charge for a dual-monitor stand after it was today awarded a patent for the design …Īpple filed the patent application back in 2019, explaining its reasoning.Ĭomputer device designers often desire to control positioning of a computer monitor or similar display at whatever height and orientation are best suited for the needs of the user. Is it worth the price? It depends on who you ask, although I would probably wait to see if other 3rd party manufacturers start selling OEM alternatives to the Pro Stand when the Pro Display XDR goes on sale this fall.Apple’s Pro Display XDR stand came under fire for its $999 price tag when the monitor was first announced. Something worth weighing into your decision when thinking about the Pro Display XDR, then. Interestingly, a display from Sony with similar (albeit slightly worse) specs retails for a much higher pricer-around US$30,000 (about RM125,400). At that price point, it’s also a product that would mostly appeal to those that would utilise it for professional purposes. Ultimately, Apple has clearly pulled out all the stops for the Pro Display XDR. You can also opt for a VESA mount adapter that will ‘only’ set you back US$200 (about RM836)-not exactly cheap, but a whole lot more affordable in comparison. The Pro Stand that will cost a staggering US$999 (about RM4,174) can be connected with the Mac Pro using a magnetic connection, and allows for both tilt and height adjustments to suit your preferences (You can also opt to have your monitor in portrait mode).īut thankfully, the Pro Stand isn’t your only option for the Pro Display XDR. With a contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1 and peak brightness ratings of around 1,600 nits along with 1,000 nits of full-screen brightness, you can expect to see the deepest of blacks and the brightest of brights-making for a precisely-calibrated, beautifully dazzling display. The Pro Display XDR, in line with its name, is also extremely dynamic in its range.
In the name of further improving visibility, the optional matte option that utilises nano-texture technology also helps with glare and reflections on the surface. The display features Apple’s latest polariser technology to allow for better viewing angles, while ensuring that the colours and contrast of the display remain accurate at all times.
Perhaps the most attractive thing for professionals thinking about Apple’s most expensive monitor yet is the fact that the Pro Display XDR supports P3 wide colour and true 10-bit colour for over a billion colours-something that is critical for graphic designers and professionals working in production.
