And rightly so – it is dreadful and entirely out of place on a £1,500 monitor.ĭon’t worry, said members of the hastily cobbled-together Studio Display Supporters Club, there’s a software update on the way! Reserve your judgement until that arrives, they urged me. The webcam IS terribleĮvery initial review of the Studio Display – including mine – lambasted the webcam. I hope this indicates that Apple’s quality control (or, indeed, the quality of the panels themselves) has stepped up a gear. Screen uniformity is pretty much bang-on across every inch of the screen, and there is barely any fall-off towards the corners. I learned to look past those niggles and enjoy that vibrant, sharp, deeply colourful display on the 5K iMac, but I’m happy to report that the panel on my Studio Display is damn near perfect. I briefly considered contacting Apple but decided against it after visiting an Apple store and noting that every single 5K iMac and iMac Pro on display exhibited the exact same issues. My 2017 5K iMac suffered from slightly darkened corners and poor screen uniformity. ![]() But there are some inherent issues with Apple’s quality control which means you inevitably enter the panel lottery that has always plagued LCD technology. ![]() This might sound odd coming from someone who has previously lavished all kinds of praise on that 27-inch screen. It’s possible to get a GREAT panel from AppleĪs much as I loved my 5K iMac, I was never overly satisfied with the screen.
