I'm not going to pay $6000 for an XDR, because I am extremely not rich, but I absolutely think having a 32" Apple monitor is probably pretty awesome. I guess I'll just continue slumming it over here with my $2000 Studio Display, like an animal.
@collin I absolutely can't recommend anyone to buy the XDR (especially now that it’s quite outdated), and yet I am so glad I got mine when I did — it's the perfect size/resolution ✨
@collin I so badly want Apple to release a 32" version of their Studio Display. Bonus points if it has a somewhat better camera than the current studio display.
That feels like a slam dunk of a display they could sell for $2000-ish. Why don't they want me giving them money?
@harpaa01 This one already costs $2000! I still can't believe the camera sucks as bad as it does. I don't want to come off as complaining, but it's such a disappointment for something so costly.
@collin also not to put it all on Apple. This hole in the market was handed to Dell on a silver platter and this is what they came up with to fill that gap.
@harpaa01@collin the dell is heinously ugly! I’ve talked myself into the XDR a few times and then out again mostly because I know as soon as I buy it Apple will release the new version. The XDR is fairly “old” now.
@BrendanThompson@collin I'm hoping someone could just take one for the team and buy one so Apple can announce new ones just after the return window closes
@BrendanThompson@harpaa01 I wish I had enough disposable income to seriously consider an XDR, but that’s just not in the cards. Plus they would definitely update it 31 days later.
@BrendanThompson@SENTINELITE@harpaa01 it is also the price of a pretty OK used car 😂 I think what I really want is a bigger Studio Display with 120 Hz.
@collin If Apple seems to be 1) not making a new larger iMac or pro-grade iMac any time soon, and 2) is selling these Mac Mini and Mac Studio desktops (as well as the new Mac Pro lol), it just makes sense that they'd want to put a family of high-quality displays in that lineup.
I also get it's a weird market; it is super niche and is kept niche by the prices that are needed to make a display of that size/resolution/quality.
