Overview

Stunning is an understatement.

Made for the new Macbook family

Made for the new MacBook family.

The LED Cinema Display is the first display designed specifically for the MacBook. Three easy connections allow you to extend your desktop, charge your MacBook and access a world of USB peripherals.

Connect via Mini DisplayPort

Connect via Mini DisplayPort.

The LED Cinema Display attaches to your new MacBook, MacBook Pro, or MacBook Air using the new industry-standard Mini DisplayPort connector. Other display connectors have you lining up pins or fumbling with screws. But the Mini DisplayPort connector is easy in, easy out. Now you can also attach your LED Cinema Display to Mac desktop computers that have a Mini DisplayPort: Mac Pro, Mac mini, and iMac.

IcExtend your desktop

Extend your desktop.

Connect the LED Cinema Display to your new computer, and it's like upgrading your screen to first class. The 24-inch LED-backlit widescreen display adds 1920 by 1200 pixels to your workspace, giving your work more room to impress. And its glossy finish makes graphics, photos, and video appear in rich colors and deep blacks.

The LED advantage.

The LED advantage.

LEDs are solid-state light sources that are an ideal complement to digital LCDs. They light up very quickly, which means you experience full screen brightness the moment you connect your LED Cinema Display to your system. And LEDs are completely mercury-free.

MagSafe connector.

MagSafe connector.

The LED Cinema Display is the perfect companion for your new MacBook, because it includes a convenient universal MagSafe connector that powers and charges your MacBook when you're back at your home, office, or dorm. You can leave your MacBook power adapter right in your bag, ready to hit the road.

Built-in conveniences.

Built-in conveniences.

With a built-in iSight camera, microphone, speaker system, and USB hub, the LED Cinema Display keeps your desktop clutter-free. Have video conferences with your MacBook closed. Listen to music without headphones. And leave your USB peripherals connected to the display for quick get-up-and-go productivity. You can also connect it to your Mini DisplayPort-enabled Mac Pro or Mac mini to instantly enjoy these convenient video and audio features.

Green Design.

Green design.

The LED Cinema Display, like the latest-generation iPod, iPhone, and Mac computers, features mercury-free LED backlight technology and arsenic-free glass. The display is also free of BFRs and PVCs in all internal cables and components. In addition, the glass and aluminum construction make the display highly recyclable, so its raw materials can be used in other types of products.

    Superb product
    • Written by FM from London

    I own a new unibody 15' MacBook Pro and was looking for a monitor to allow myself to work more precisely with applications such as Apperture or iMovie. I shopped around (HP made interesting ones as well with integrated mic and webcam for half the price) but in due fairness the LED cinema display was the best choice (although the priciest) for several reasons:
    - no cables and wires dangling everywhere
    - plug and play
    - for the price to have a 24' LED (and not LCD!) is a bargain (and yes I am going to have to eat pasta for the whole of March after spending that much in one go!).

    I had a scary moment when once plugged I found the definition a bit grainy and gross but when using it with the MacBook monitor off (allowing you to be able still to use the keyboard) the resolution is just amazing, especially comes to pictures. The glossiness of the display has not been a problem as far as I am concerned, and given the room where it sits.

    It is important to note that this display is usable only with the new unibody MacBook and MacBook Pro family as it needs to minidisplay port to function. However, it seems that Apple has allowed 3rd-party manufacturers to produce adaptors so people with the older generation shoud be able to use it anytime soon.

    The reason why I give it 4 instead of 5 stars, is because it is not a very nice move from Apple to forget people who are loyal to the brand and could feel left out, especially if they bought a less recent MacBook brand new from them just before the unibody family was released. On top of that this display is not usable with game consoles as there is no hdmi or any other kind of ports. But comes to the product as such it is remarkable, and a nice piece of design too).

    Great monitor, but check compatibility first!

    This is a superb monitor (as long as you like the glossy finish). However...

    This monitor only comes with a mini-DisplayPort adapter. Unless you have a brand new Mac laptop or desktop, you will not be able to connect the monitor.

    Optimists hoping to be able to find a mini-DisplayPort to DVI adapter of the right gender (opposite to those sold in the Apple Store) will be doomed to a long search.

    24 inch Cinema Display
    • Written by AP from LONDON
    • Jun 1, 2009

    I agree with all the positive comments about this display. The quality is very good. But I also want to emphasise what at least one reviewer has already said. This is really only suitable for use with a laptop. I made the mistake of buying one to go with my desktop, or rather, desk under, MacPro (itself a great bit of kit) and the mini display port lead is nothing like long enough to reach (its less than three feet) to be able to position the two items comfortably. A search for a longer lead, or a way of extending the existing one including creative use of connectors, failed miserably (and I was looking in the UK and the US). So this is a potential show-stopper unless Apple, or a third party supplier, fix this problem.

    I strongly urge, therefore, a google search for a longer lead before buying the screen, so that you can be sure that a stupid minor glitch like this doesn't render your expensive purchase unusable.

    Fab-u-lous!
    • Written by SD from Farcet Fen
    • Jan 28, 2010

    I've recently acquired my display second-hand. Less than a year old and in mint condition and for £200 less than new. I would have bought one full price had I not bought this, I just feel smug!

    I'd tried out the display countless times in-store and simply loved it. I use it with my MacBook. The display itself is simply great with brilliant resolution. I've found that I take my MacBook downstairs less and less as I dont want to use it without the display.

    My only gripe is the USB ports. I would have preferred USB ports on the side of the display rather than have to keep fiddling around the back.

    Brilliant image, sound ok but needs line-out port.
    • Written by KD from Leyton

    The image on the screen is absolutley BRILLIANT!! I was hesitating over the price a little but have no regrets buying it. I now use my 15" MacBook Pro in clamshell mode and get to expeience OS X they way it was meant to be experienced - on a big screen with lots of floating windows and spaces. The smaller 15" screen size on my MBP always meant I was trying to fill the screen with whatever app I was working on which as we all know is more of a MS Windows thing, but having the 24" display now is like I've got a completely new machine.
    Unfortunatley it looses one star for the audio specs. I am fortunate enough to have a Bose 2.1 sound system grace my desk and I certainly don't expect a few small speakers built into a screen to match the sound quality of a Bose, but it does mean that I have to use my headphone jack on the MBP to connect my speakers. Not a deal breaker, but it would certainly have been a much neater solution for the screen to have a line out port for the audio, and possibly a headphone and microphone jack. I can imagine the fiddling around the back of a Mac Mini that would be required for those users who like to use a headset for iChat / Rosetta Stone / etc. A very small addition electronically that would bring about huge useability benefits.
