Cinema Display Price Drops [Updated]

Although not mentioned during the keynote, Apple has reduced the prices on its Cinema Displays. The 20" Cinema Display now sells for $699 (down from $799), the 23" Cinema Display now sells for $999 (down from $1299), and the 30" Cinema Display now sells for $1999 (down from $2499), representing cuts of $100, $300, and $500 respectively.


The new displays can be found at Apple's online Apple Store.

Update: MacForum member BlizzardBomb notes that the specifications for the 20 and 23" displays have been bumped. The 20" display now has a brightness of 300 cd/m2 (up from 250 cd/m2), and the 23" display has a brightness of 400 cd/m2 (up from 270 cd/m2). Both models also now feature 700:1 contrast ratios (both up from 400:1). The 30" display remains at 400 cd/m2 and a 700:1 contrast ratio.

New Intel towers could have made a good time for new displays too... but there's another good time coming up: new displays might come alongside Leopard, with higher DPI and full resolution-independent GUI?

Meanwhile, price drops are nice :)

Makes them a little more attractive to the penny concious buyer.

More importantly, cutting price of the current design signals the arrival of a new design in the not-too-distant-future.

As has been reported in other threads the specs appear to have been bumped too.

Better brightness and contrast are now reported for the 20" and 23".

Sounds like a good idea. Clear out inventory. make some sales. As LCD prices come down, so should apple's list price.


But I am not into these models, I want a HDTV compliant model with speakers.

so i can watch HDTV via HDMI, ie plug in a blu-ray movie or watch HD directv.

give us HDMI with 1080P ability Apple.
with nice speakers, so we can have all in one!!

basically i want a tv/monitor
