Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

This modern, minimalist display is clearly designed for those with demanding temperaments. Its lightweight 17-inch screen supplies the outstanding 1,280 x 1,024 resolution you'd normally find in a 21-inch CRT giant, while the clean, simple lines and clutter-reducing two-port USB hub will have your desktop ready for a photo shoot.

Features include an anti-glare hardcoat, 16.7 million color capability, 0.264 mm dot pitch, and 350:1 contrast ratio for a rich, bright picture. The 170-degree viewing angle and nearly instant pixel response promise satisfaction when you're dealing with graphic-heavy applications--games, DVDs, and professional design programs are all a joy to watch.

Apple includes a one-year warranty that covers parts and service, and provides 90 days of free technical support.

2.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful for 1-2 years, then backlight fails., April 24, 2004

This review is from: Apple M7649ZM/B Studio Display Monitor 17" Flat Panel (Electronics)
I really wish that I could give this Apple product 5 stars, write some words of praise, and be on my way, but unfortunately I would feel uncomfortable recommending this monitor.

For two full years, this monitor was great. The resolution is generous, it is bright, and the fully digital ADC interface is perfect. Colors look good from a wide range of angles. The casing is smart and takes up little space, and it's easy to clean. The touch-sensitive power and brightness buttons are a nice touch that you expect from Apple.

Unfortunately, after two years, the top half of my display suddenly went dim, which is extremely annoying. I wouldn't post a negative review here just because I got unlucky. I am posting here because hundreds of customers have seen their displays fail within the first two years. Just look at Apple's discussion boards to see for yourself. (I can't post URLs in reviews.) Apple has not acknowledged that this is a widespread problem, and repair costs exceed that of a new display. It is also unclear as to whether or not this problem has been fixed in newer models.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tried 3 other; should have just bought this one!, July 4, 2004
This review is from: Apple M7649ZM/B Studio Display Monitor 17" Flat Panel (Electronics)
After ruining my existing CRT monitor, I had to buy a replacement. Searched for low-cost, high-quality CRTs and found none (went to at least 6 stores). Brought home two CRTs and immediately took them back. Then decided to up the ante by looking at LCDs. Bought the Sony SDM-HS73 (based on reviews and store demo). Brought it home and immediately didn't like the text when plugged in my G4 -- very fuzzy and gave me a headache.

So I finally did what my wife and several friends suggested, spend the $700+ and buy the monitor I knew I really wanted/needed. Save yourself the search and buy the best to start.

Cons: price tag, only Mac compatible, must need ADC.
