on Tuesday presented new products. Among them the Studio Display monitor in an aluminum housing. However, another detail caught my attention, namely the cable. When purchasing the device, the customer will receive a cable that is only 1 meter long.
Perhaps most customers are satisfied with this – their computer will be closer to the monitor than this meter, as in the promotional photo, so there is more than enough cable. It is worse if someone decided to arrange their workstation a bit differently. Then he will have to pay extra.
A cable from Apple costs as much as cables from Apple
Mockery of unreasonably expensive accessories for Apple equipment is almost an element of pop culture. In addition, the company uses non-standard proprietary solutions, which means that users cannot afford a wide selection of cheaper substitutes.
So coming back to Studio Display – if someone needs a longer cable, of course you can buy it. He would have to spend a good sum on him. Apple wants $ 159 for a 3-meter cable. Inflation, inflation, but this is a really prohibitive price. Especially when we convert it into Polish currency. Then the price of the cable at Thursday’s dollar exchange rate will be as high as PLN 695. For that much, you can buy a decent third-party monitor. In addition, the 3-meter version of the cable will only appear in stores for some time.
The shorter cable was priced at $ 129. Only two years ago, a shorter cable for the same price meant 2 meters, and today it is 1.8 meters.
