Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

Some YouTuber, please make this video.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

I want to see this box.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

I mean, so here's the thing.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

The pricing, it replaces the Pro Display XDR, and thank God it doesn't cost what the Pro Display XDR did.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

But it costs a lot.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

All right, so here's the price.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

3300 with the standard glass, 3600 with nano texture.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

can't possibly cost the same amount nope uh but that's yes if you can get a stand or you can get no stand and there is no savings for that uh so man yeah and so here's the thing with this price first of all i think it is somewhat unconscionable to have this price and not have like an iphone quality like good back camera as the camera because as far as i can tell it has the same camera as the studio display which granted is supposedly improved but it's still 12 megapixel whatever but like

$3,000 monitor, I believe there should be room in the margins to put in a good camera from an iPhone, not a really gritty one.

But whatever, maybe it's hard to get those wide-angle ones.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

They're really into center stage because they're not going to have a little motor moving the camera, so they want a wide-angle one.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

I don't know what the issues involved are, but it just seems...

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

like a little bit of a shame that the camera isn't significantly better.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

I mean, hey, this has got the A19 Pro instead of the A19.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

Why couldn't they bump the camera as well?

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

And the price, although it is somewhat offensive, this is the best big monitor you can buy from Apple, and it is a very good big monitor by the standards of the entire industry.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

It's not price competitive.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

You can get other monitors with the similar specs for less money, but it's not as if there are other monitors out there that are a million times better than this.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

Like these specs of this, 1,000 nits sustained, 2,000 nits peak, 2,000 dimming zones, really good calibration, nice case.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

There's not a lot of monitors out there that are actually better than this monitor.
