What do you want to compare about the display?
- Resolution? There the macbooks are behind both in aspect ratio (worse than 3:2) and in pixels (4k or 4k+ vs...)
- Contrast? Not OLED, so worse.
- Refresh rate? Good enough, but far from top of the line.
- Gamut? That is a point. But also available e.g. asus
- Brightness? Outdoor viewable screens have been as bright as that or brighter since windows XP days, but fairly specialized. I guess I prefer contrast (OLED), but yeah, difficult to find outside a macbook.
- Touch, wacom pen? Oh, none.
It is a really great quality screen, but not "the best".
- ArgyleSound 5y agoHe suggested that you can't find a similar or better quality display for $1000, not that it's the best display that exists. At that price point you can find something that, at best, meets three of the criteria you've listed while heavily compromising on the rest.
- qudat 5y agolink us with better alternatives please
- diffeomorphism 5y agoAsus for example (oled, $600) Or huawei (ips, 3:2, touchscreen, $700 or so) Or having pen and touch at all.
- the_lucifer 5y agoSo, you just mentioned two different brands for features that a single laptop display has.
- diffeomorphism 5y agoNo, I mentioned features that the single laptop does not have at all, which you can get elsewhere and for much cheaper even.
- messe 5y ago> It is a really great quality screen, but not "the best". I never said it was the best. The previous poster said that you can find comparable hardware at half the price. At lower price points than MacBooks/Dell XPS/Microsoft Surface, I've usually found the screen quality to be the hardest to match.
