Having shopped it recently, the desktop monitor market is abysmal right now. To get a monitor remotely comparable to the new MBP internal displays you're looking at spending $3k on one of a tiny handful of FALD displays which run hot enough to need a fan and have worse DPI, or rearranging your desk setup to accommodate a 48" LG OLED TV which is subject to burnin with serious usage.
Apple can't release those lower-priced 27" displays that've been rumored soon enough.
- _ph_ 5y agoI hope the next large iMac is at least a little bit above 27", after all, the entry-level one went from 21.5 to 24". A 30" iMac with mini-led and 120Hz would be just too sweet.
- kitsunesoba 5y agoThat would be pretty great, but unless they restore display passthrough capabilities with the M-series 27"+ iMacs, I'm really hoping for a standalone display that can be used both with a laptop and the rumored upcoming "Mac Pro Mini"/G4 Cube MKII.
- gigatexal 5y agoSpeaking about nostalgia. I hope they bring back the cube. The thing was amazing in design just the G4 was too hot. Now with Apple Silicon and that’s not an issue. Tons of Apple fans from back in the day like myself would buy one just for nostalgia if nothing else.
- _ph_ 5y agoThat would be nice. Some of the rumors about the Mini refresh point to something looking like the cube did. When all the Mac line is on the M2 generation, I would love Apple to add a Mac Nano based on the M1 to the lineup. Tiny, at the original price point of the Mini, like $499. They could greatly increase the market share of the Mac that way while keeping their other product tiers intact.
