Apple’s new 5K Studio Display sees launch discount
Yesterday, Apple took to the stage in order to unveil a new collection of devices at its spring Peek Performance event. One of the most exciting reveals is the new Apple Studio Display, which is already seeing a notable launch discount via trusted authorized retailer Expercom. Taking up to $115 off the all-new release, you can already save on the latest desktop upgrade starting at $1,519.
Arriving as a new, more affordable version of the Pro Display XDR, the new Apple Studio Display is designed to pair with the new Mac Studio (now available for pre-order, too) and all of the other M1 machines. Measuring 27 inches, the 5K monitor is packed with the latest features from Apple including a 12MP FaceTime camera backed by Center Stage. The studio-quality mics and six-speaker sound system are balanced by the A13 chip. Around the back there is a single Thunderbolt 3 port with 96W host charging, as well as three downstream USB-C ports for connecting in peripherals and the like.
12.9-inch M1 iPad Pros fall to new 2022 lows at $150 off
Apple’s latest iPad Pro provides the most compelling experience yet from iPadOS with a long list of notable features headlined by a Liquid Retina XDR display with 1,600 nits of peak brightness and ProMotion 120Hz refresh rate. That’s of course alongside an M1 chip to power the experience which is backed by Thunderbolt connectivity, Wi-Fi 6, Apple Pencil support, and Face ID. Dive into our hands-on review.
Apple’s official MagSafe Battery Pack sees one-day price cut at $88
Designed for both of Apple’s most recent iPhone 12 and 13 handsets, the official MagSafe Battery Pack provides some extra power while on the go. Magnetically attaching to your device, it can dish out 5W of power from the internal battery, while plugging in a USB-C cable unlocks the full 15W MagSafe charging speed. It has a slick white plastic shell that will work with everything from Apple’s mini handsets all the way up to its Pro Max releases. Dive into our first impressions post for a closer look.
Twelve South StayGo Mini USB-C hub is perfect for iPad Air 5
Having launched last fall with a focus on mimimal Mac and iPad setups, the new StayGo Mini will work with just about all of Apple’s latest devices. Packed into the compact form-factor is a 4-port design yielding a 4K30 HDMI output, USB-C port with 100W passthrough charging, USB-A slot, and a 3.5mm audio jack. That all adds up to deliver a notable solution for adding some legacy I/O to newer devices without much bulk. Our hands-on review explores that use case, too.
DJI’s modular Action 2 camera falls to new all-time lows
Adorama is now discounting the new DJI Action 2 Camera Dual-Screen Combo for $439. Down from its usual $519 price tag, this is only the second discount since launching this fall at $80 off and beats our previous mention by $20 in order to make a new all-time low. You can also score the Action 2 with Power Combo at $349, down from $399 and also marking a new low at $10 below our previous mention.
As DJI’s latest action camera, the new Action 2 arrives to take on the likes of GoPro with a unique modular design. There’s the main camera itself up top, which sports a 12MP sensor with 4K/120FPS recording and 155-degree FOV as well as RockSteady 2.0 and HorizonSteady stabilization. Then you’ll be able to pair the action camera with either another screen or an extended battery module. Our recent hands-on review takes you through what to expect from the experience.
