No 120hz listed in the tech specs, that’s gonna be jarring for people with a M1 macbook pro.
I hardly notice when switching between my M1Pro monitor and larger 27" monitor. Sure my monitor do support 144Hz, but im running it at 60Hz... because docking station

#92Perhaps only spatial audio and some camera features won't be compatible with older macOS versions. Waiting for the first reviews.

#93Any mentions of the refresh rate? I've been waiting for a 4K/5K display that supports 120 Hz to pair nicely with my 2021 MBP, but it looks like the only available options so far are funky gaming displays: https://tonsky.me/blog/monitors-mac/

#94I hate this trend in ‘ultra modern’ websites with the infinite scroll pulling you through some sort of animation. The website is near unusable as a result.

#95I've still got my old 27" Apple Thunderbolt Display (a puny 2560 by 1440 pixels), which i use daily. (The convenience of built-in video/mic/USB hub, with one cable, is indispensible and more important to me than resolution, and it's been really unclear to me what else could do that with a macbook). But might be ready to upgrade to this guy.

#96Would be nice to have >5K resolutions to have more pixel density. Alas, macOS doesn't support any native scaling other than 100% and 200%. So if they did release e.g. a 27" 8K monitor, the text would either be too small, or they'd have to use bitmap scaling to make it bigger in which case there'd be no advantage of having an 8K monitor. (EDIT: To clarify, all other scaling factors are done by rendering at either 100%…

#98- 60hz. For this price point I'd expect higher.
- Thunderbolt 3. Interesting that they didn't bump to 4, given the Mac Studio is Thunderbolt 4. This means you wont be able to daisy chain the displays.
- Lack of size options. Would love to see more variety here. After moving to an ultrawide format, I can't see myself moving back to standard format monitors from a productivity standpoint.
Overall though excited for this and keen to see how it'll evolve. It'll be a miss for me this cycle but keen to see their future releases of their monitor line.

I'm confused by your post. macOS definitely supports fractional scaling since 2012.

#100I'm reading this on a 27" 5K imac from 2014. It's a nice screen. But it's eight years old now. So, what's new?
