Apple has finally revamped not one, but both versions of the Studio Display. The 2nd gen Studio Display and all-new mini LED Studio Display XDR will be available to preorder on Wednesday, March 4 for $1,599 and $3,299, respectively. They officially launch and start shipping on March 11.
The new Apple monitors were announced just one day after a new iPad Air and new MacBook Air were unveiled, all building up to a "special Apple experience" happening on March 4.

Apple fans have been wondering about the existence of an "Apple Studio Display 2" of some sort for a while now. (The original Studio Display came out in 2022, and the original Studio Pro Display XDR came out even earlier in 2019.) Both have tilt-adjustable heads and are available in standard or nano-texture glass.

Noteworthy upgrades for the regular Studio Pro include a 1MP Center Stage camera, a studio-quality microphone system, Spatial Audio, and Thunderbolt 5 connectivity.
The 27-inch Studio Display XDR isn't the OLED Studio Display that some Reddit users were hoping for, but the advanced mini-LED backlight does give it a serious premium edge over other high-end monitors. Creatives can see their work in all its glory displayed in 5K and up to 2,000 nits of peak HDR brightness fine-tuned across more than 2,000 local dimming zones. The 120Hz refresh rate should give any motion projects, streaming, or gaming a visible bump in fluidity.
