But then it's okay because you two have a positively ancient monitor sitting in front of you and there's a new version and it's better than ever-ish.

Righto.

So the Studio Display XDR, as you guys said, 5K, 27-inch, same resolution.

There is a mini LED for the backlight with 2,304 dimming zones.

John, do you happen to remember if that's more or less or otherwise?

Yes, exactly, right.

So much sadness for Marco.

There is up to 1,000 nits brightness in SDR and 2,000 nits peak brightness in HDR.

And most importantly, I would argue, is that this is Apple's first entry, as far as I'm aware, is a 120-hertz external display.

There have been 120-hertz internal displays.

This is the first time we've seen it on the outside.

And we've been theorizing that this was coming.

We had heard some rumors that maybe 90 hertz would be the peak.

But no, apparently, 120-hertz refresh rate and adaptive sync, which allows it to vary the refresh rate between 47 hertz and all the way up to, of course, 120 hertz.

Okay.

That's great.

This is what peaked my interest.

This is what's making me wonder, should I buy one of these?

Because even though I don't need 120 hertz, I certainly don't need mini LED.

I don't need all that brightness, but I kind of want it.
