The problem is that if you want to mount the Pro Display XDR to anything that isn't the $999 Pro Stand you'll need to spend $200 on Apple's VESA Mount Adapter, which is essentially a simple piece of metal that makes the monitor compatible with with the mounting standard every other monitor uses. People who don’t want to spend $1,000 on a monitor stand can buy a generic one from Amazon for around $30, or even mount it directly to a wall. The stand for the Pro Display XDR is a staggering $999, the cost of a new gaming PC. The $5,000 monitor is a 6K monstrosity and far nicer than almost anyone but the most powerful (and wealthy) of Apple power users will need.Īs far as we understand, and according to Apple's description of what's included with the Pro Display XDR, it doesn’t come with any kind of mount, meaning there's no way to keep the monitor upright unless you spend even more money on another piece of Apple hardware. Apple’s new upgradeable Mac Pro and its Pro Display XDR is a vulgar display of power.
