Night mode is an automatic setting which takes advantage of the new wide-angle camera that's in the iPhone 11 and 11 Pro models. It's equipped with a larger sensor that is able to let in more light, allowing for brighter photos when the light is low.
16" MacBook Pro Now Available
5K LG UltraFine Display Now Unavailable From Apple in the U.S.
Apple is no longer offering the 5K LG UltraFine Display from the Apple Store in the United States, with the monitor now listed as "Sold Out" and unavailable for pickup in any retail location.
The 5K LG display was in stock and available to be shipped just recently, so the stock shortage happened within the last few days. The listing for the display has not been eliminated from Apple's site, so it's not entirely clear if Apple plans to restock the monitor or if Apple is done selling it for good.
Apple last month removed the online listing for the 4K LG UltraFine Display, and prior to when it was pulled, the 4K monitor had been listed as "Sold Out" for some time, so Apple could be planning to remove the 5K monitor from the site in the near future as well.
The 4K and 5K UltraFine Displays were designed by LG in partnership with Apple and were created to be used with the 2016 13 and 15-inch MacBook Pro models, which supported Thunderbolt 3 for the first time.
The 27-inch 5K UltraFine Display featured a resolution of 5120 x 2880, P3 wide color gamut, and 85W of power delivery for charging a MacBook Pro. Apple was selling it for $1,299. The 27-inch 5K UltraFine display continues to be available from Best Buy, B&H Photo, and Amazon, and it is still listed on LG's website.
Apple is potentially phasing out the LG displays because they're several years old at this point and because there is a new Apple-branded display in the works. Apple is developing a high-end high-throughput modular Mac Pro and is said to be planning on a 31.6-inch 6K display to go with it.
The new display has been described as a high-end display aimed at Apple's pro user base, so it's likely to be expensive and may not be a suitable replacement for the 4K and 5K displays that are no longer available from Apple.

Not offering a consumer or even prosumer monitor is terrible. The 6k 32" is clearly professional or business and leaves the rest of us out here with a Dell that probably won't work that well with a MacBook. What's the point of TB3 if you don't have a monitor that plays well with it.
Just another sign of them not getting it and trying to protect margins at the expense of UX. Keyboards, Homepod, iPhone naming/lineup, Macbook naming/lineup, Mac Pro debacle, iCloud storage, Apple TV (hardware, app, and +...wtf..and what is AppleTV+), Apple News+...I mean seriously what is this company doing other than chasing fires with no overarching, long term strategy.

Dude, chill... The 4K & 5K LG monitors are STILL AVAILABLE, just not directly from Apple...
What a shock that they might want to remove competition FROM THEIR OWN APPLE WEBSTORE...
But I would hope they also offer a 27" 4K model to complement the Space Grey Mac mini, even if we all know it will come at a higher cost than a comparable third-party monitor...?

LG UltraFine would've sold better if they had better design (smaller bezels, no LG branding on the front, metallic finish) and kept the introductory price ($974 for 27" 5K and $524 for 21.5" 4K).

Actually, they are sold out in many places. I think they are no longer being manufactured.
Well then, if they are no longer being manufactured, then we cannot really blame Apple for removing them from their webstore (especially since they have their own monitor forthcoming)...
But we CAN hope that Apple will (eventually) make more than one size of Apple-branded monitor...!

My guess is Apple is no longer restocking them, which might be indicative that they’re finally bringing their own displays in either during WWDC or maybe later in the summer. Ideally, it would make sense during WWDC being within less than a month. (They surprised everyone with Macs updated last July.)
Does it really matter? If or when Apple announces its own monitors this comment section will stroke out over the prices. I can hear it now.

The older I get the worse my vision and hearing get. That saves me a LOT of money because all the old stuff (TV and audio) is "good enough".

I wish Apple had not stopped making their own displays, so the idea that they might start up again is encouraging.
The 4K and 5K displays in the iMacs are absolutely the best displays I've ever seen; I'd love for Apple to just repackage those exact same panels in their own displays matching the iMacs so you can have a two or three (or more!) display iMac setup where everything matches and looks great.
Also, the LG 5K display wasn't the most reliable thing around. We have four of them at work and two of them have failed since we got them. They were replaced under warranty, but damn... a 50% failure rate on a premium product? That's just sad.

$1299 for a freaking monitor :eek:
$1,299 for a 27” 5K monitor suitable for many pro uses. But it’s not just “a monitor”. LG has one of those, it’s a 27” as well and costs less than $150:https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B06XFGCKL6/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1
Cheap monitors aren’t Thunderbolt 3, they have poor color accuracy and gamut and they’re 1920x1080 resolution among many other shortcomings (but they’re fine for gaming).
High quality, high resolution monitors targeted at the pro market are expensive. I fully expect Apple’s 32” 6K/3K to be around $2,500.
Dell has a 32” 8K that’s $4,999, though it’s often on sale for 20-25% off, so it’s possible to grab one for the low, low price of $3,750.
