    It’s less expensive than the Apple display if you make the Apple display more expensive! Also, it comes with Smart Hub if you want to watch TV on your computer without using your computer to watch TV. Bonus feature: plasticky.

      Is it plastic?

      It’s got a metal build like Apple’s Studio Display

      And while I don’t think it’s a steal I can’t imagine paying $1,600 for a monitor without height adjustment so I consider it cheaper than Apple’s. It’ll probably go on sale though and be even cheaper knowing Samsung.

          I mean, plastic is good enough, no?

          It‘s not like you’d get a benefit, besides the less-likelihood of breaking during a move

            Yes, I don’t really understand the plastic hate for a monitor. The only time I manually handle my monitor is when I set it up in the first place.

            Metal chassis are great on portable devices, but I don’t get the necessity for something that rarely if ever moves.
