Apple Studio Display XDR Hits All-Time Low of $2,969.99 ($329 Off) [Deal]

Apple's Studio Display XDR has dropped to $2,969.99 at Amazon, $329 off the $3,299 Apple charges for it and the lowest price we have recorded since the display went on sale in March. It is the first time it has sold for less than $3,000.

The Studio Display XDR is a 27-inch 5K panel running 5120 by 2880 at 218 pixels per inch, lit by a mini-LED backlight with 2304 dimming zones. Apple rates it at up to 1000 nits for standard content and 2000 nits peak for HDR, with a 120Hz refresh rate and Adaptive Sync. It covers both the P3 and Adobe RGB color spaces and ships with fifteen reference modes for video, print, photography and medical imaging.

Around the panel are a 12MP Center Stage camera with Desk View, a six-speaker system with force-canceling woofers and Spatial Audio, and a three-mic array. Two Thunderbolt 5 ports carry up to 120Gb/s: the upstream one drives the display and charges a connected Mac laptop at up to 140W, and the second can daisy-chain a second Studio Display XDR. Two USB-C ports handle peripherals and storage. This is the standard glass configuration on the tilt- and height-adjustable stand, which tilts from -5 to 25 degrees and moves through 105mm of height. Nano-texture glass and the VESA mount adapter are separate configurations and are not on sale here.

Check what you are plugging it into first. Apple lists the display as compatible with Apple silicon Macs running macOS Tahoe 26.3.1 or later, but Macs on M1, M1 Pro, M1 Max, M1 Ultra, M2 and M3 drive it at up to 60Hz, so the 120Hz panel needs an M4 Mac or newer to run at full speed. It also works with iPad Pro and iPad Air models on iPadOS 26.3.1 or later, where only the M5 iPad Pro reaches 120Hz. A 1-meter Thunderbolt 5 Pro cable is in the box.
