Apple Studio Display (27-inch, 2022)

Excellent peak brightness and fantastic reflection handling. Wide viewing angles. Exceptional out-of-the-box accuracy. High 5k resolution delivers sharp text and images. Low input lag.

Nice design ; Can charge your devices ; Good image quality

Need to spend extra for height adjustment ; No HDR ; Limited to 60Hz ; Webcam issues
