I'm aware of that one, but there are folks who'd prefer to buy an Apple-branded monitor as long as there wasn't anything dreadful about it, for both aesthetic reasons and because there's usually a couple nice touches that aren't on the third-party one. I said $1500 instead of $1300 because I assume any Apple product will cost at least 20% higher than it should. :) More to the point, it's unclear if Apple is still actually selling that LG display, though: https://www.engadget.com/2019/05/09/apple-no-longer-selling-lg-ultrafine-5k-display/ https://www.engadget.com/2019/05/09/apple-no-longer-selling-... That headline is phrased as if it's definitive, but of course Apple hasn't said anything. But it's over a month later than that article was published, and the display is still listed as "Delivery: Sold Out" for online ordering, and it appears to be catch-as-catch-can at physical Apple stores: the ones that don't have it just list it as "unavailable for pickup."
