the Pro has the ProMotion display, FaceID, and higher capacity storage options. otherwise yeah, basically the same.

 

ah damn forgot about ProMotion lol

I think the galaxy brain play might be a refurb Pro.

 

I just saw this and it makes me miss my 11 Pro Max even more.

 

Just seen a rumour that a Studio Display Pro is going to launch with ProMotion and miniLED later this year. At that point I’m in.

 

I think that rumour makes sense as the current XDR display doesn't contain the webcam or speakers. Makes sense to update the tech there whilst also adding the ProMotion and miniLED.

My guess is the Studio Display Pro will launch with the new Mac Pro in June which will complete the Silicon 2 year cycle.

 

Completely missed how Apple has stopped selling the 27" iMac since the intro of the Mac Studio. Not sure I'd want a 24" iMac, this is like the perfect sized screen. Yeah the new display is 27", but I don't want to spend $1600 on just a screen then another thousand+ on the mini or studio.

 

I don’t think apple is gonna make a 27” iMac anytime soon

 

The complete Studio is definitely their response to a bigger iMac. I’d imagine they don’t have the flexibility to add the Ultra to that thin body just yet.

 

But no one really needs that ultra that needs the 27" iMac... that's why there's pro displays that offer more. The iMac should 10000% be offered in multiple sizes, just like the MBP.

 

FYI NordVPN is giving out a gift for their 10 year anniversary that could end up being an additional 2 free years if you get a 2-year subscription within the next 9 hours

 

Dang I just bought a 2 year deal from them. Only $83 for 2 years though, not bad.

 

I think 24" is plenty for the common consumer.

 

I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on the latest 14" MacBook Pro with the Pro chip and 32gig of ram.

 

That's what I have and I love it. It's absolutely more than I need, but gives me room to grow, so no complaints.

 

I pulled the trigger! Coming in 1-2 weeks time.

Stoked as hell.

 

An Oral History of Apple's Infinite Loop

Whenever I ate with Steve, he insisted on paying for me, which I thought was a little odd. Even if we went in together and he selected something quick like pre-made sushi, and I ordered a pizza in the wood-burning pizza oven, he would wait for me at the cash register for 10, 15 minutes. I felt so awkward. Finally, I told him. “Seriously, I can pay for myself, so please don’t stand there and wait for me.” He said, “Scott, you don’t understand. You know how we pay by swiping your badge and then it’s deducted from your salary? I only get paid a dollar year! Every time I swipe we get a free meal!” Here was this multi-billionaire putting one over on the company he founded, a few dollars at a time.

Saw this pop back up today and had to share again.

 

I know people are saying he was an asshole and whatnot, but I do genuinely miss Steve Jobs.

 

the Studio Display is just sad

 

Really the only reason to chase after this display for the screen itself is if you desperately care about having a 5K display that can display MacOS at pixel-perfect resolution with no scaling

Well, yeah, that's literally the reason to buy it lol

 

I haven't watched the event yet. Is this another one of those things where Apple sells something for a very specific customer and it's incredibly expensive because it's very very targeted and niche and people pretend it's outrageous joe everyman can't afford it?

 

yes except it discontinued a joe everyman product in favor of this

 

K that's what I figured lol

 

Likes it, not a fan of the camera

 

for a company that makes incredible cameras for the phone they just can't get the Mac camera right yet lol

 

Gruber just said that multiple sources inside Apple confirmed to him that it's a bug.



Three Updates Regarding the Studio Display

also very interesting that the display runs a full fat iOS.
