After months of deliberation, I decided I am going to pay 2000 euros for a monitor that doesn't look like shit and does not have ugly matte film smeared across the screen

I just use a $300 glossy 56 inch samsung TV as monitor since I'm not retarded enough to pay apple to insult my intelligence.
>>
>>108438965
in the previous thread you made you said you already bought it, Rajeet
and now actually you didnt?

you subhuman brown ijeet spammer you cant even afford shoes.
>>
Anon, you're supposed to look at the front of the monitor, you know...
>>
>>108438965
>doesn't look like shit
>but shitty 16:9
>>
Poor people love their overpriced name brands. Be sure to make your payments on time!
>>
>>108438965
pay even more for the mini led xdr
>>
>>108438965
Do you spend all day looking at the back of your monitor? Does anyone even dare into your room anymore?
>>
>>108439655
OK let me just put a 56" TV on my desk
>>
>>108439594
Thank you anon, it feels obscene because of the price, but I just can't take it anymore, this fucking layer of grease on the screen look and the ugly ass design of other monitors
>>
>>108441696
Use case?
>>
>>108440166
>le 16:9 bad meme

I live in reality
>>
>>108442091
Meaning, where complaining about aspect ratios will not magically make the one you want available
>>
>>108442065
I don't see an issue.
>>
>>108442168
could actually work now that I think about it further, and could be good for your eye sight

move desk just some meters away from where the tv is mounted, use the desk just for your keyboard and mouse
>>
>>108442168
>>108442759


the more I think about it, the better the idea seems
>>

>I decided I am going to pay 2000 euros for a monitor that doesn't look like shit
So why didn't you post a pic of it?
>>
>>108438965
my god i hate the glossy finish
>>
>>108444883
why
>>
>>108438965
Its worth every penny if you take care of it like an IT professional
Get some type of screen protector if you plan on having sharp objects around or near the screen
Apple monitors are amongst the best in the world any OLED TV I've ever owned or seen no matter how modern cannot replicate colors the way even an IPS panel can.
Only way to do better is to get a projector
Digital will do
But analog is kino and what makes life more vivid on the silver screen
One of the few benefits of modernity
Even apple devices older than 5 - 10 plus years work great today because of modern updates from their impeccable redundancy to expanding lifespan
>>
>>108442065
Yes. You have saved like $1500, so buy yourself a bigger desk.
>>
>>108440177
>overpriced
it's not
it's actually on the cheaper side of high end, professional-focused monitors go
>>
would it not be better to look same display as everyone else
>>
>>108438965
enjoy, it's a phenomenal display
(assuming you got the pro one, since that one is genuinely good while the base model is worthless apple tax)
>>
>>108446124
I've thought about getting one of those AV stands with wheels and grabbing my other monitor from my office and putting the C1 on that.
>>
>>108447494
the pro xdr display got discontinued and pulled off the apple site 3 weeks ago
the new studio xdr is $3400+
I have no clue what the fuck OP is buying for $2000
>>
Sarr please send your proof
>>
>>108438965
only monitor worth spending money today
>>
>>108447773
>the new studio xdr
yeah I meant that one
>I have no clue what the fuck OP is buying for $2000
I hope for OP that it's not just high local taxes on top of the base model...
>>
>>108438965
and?

Like who care what you going to buy!
Are you RETARDED ?

Fuck off to /fa/ !

IDIOT!
>>
>>108440147
Yes, but if you take a picture of a monitor like that when it’s off it’s like taking a picture of a dark mirror
>>
>>108450039
base model plus adjustable stand
>>
>>108446099

I am considering to base model with adjustable stand, the xdr model costs about double and since I don't use mac I will not be able to make use of the 120HZ refresh rate (not that I have any need for it in the first place)

so the xdr, I dont see any benefits really, I am using it for working not for movies
>>
Im thinking i will get the xdr version after all
>>
>>108450577
oh no
the base model is not great outside of having a nice looking frame; get a ProArt PA27UCGE or something instead, with a good vesa mount. it's not as sexy but it'll look much better
if you want the sexy apple frame, then the xdr is the one that is yes expensive but also actually worth its price for the screen itself too
>>
>>108452858
>PA27UCGE
Yeah no this is fucking ugly

I will get the XDR
>>
>>108450061
Fight me irl not online phaggot. See what happens
>>
>>108452858
Why does it take an m4 chip to run it at 120hz though?
>>
>>108452957
well, in comparison with the studio display, it is ugly yes; but at least it's free of the tacky rgb shit most quality monitors force you to tolerate
but I understand

>>108453037
I don't think the M4 chip is necessary per se, though driving 5k@120hz does take a bit of compute power
that said:
1. they probably use binned ones that they had on their hands anyways
2. my guess is it also allows them to reuse the iPhone/macOS image and sound processing pipeline for the webcam/mic/speakers
3. it also probably runs a small cut-down version of iOS internally so that also probably means no driver development and shit
and I'm guessing the stock+r&d savings add up such that it makes financial sense
