Apple has a new desktop computer in its lineup, the Mac Studio. The company also launched the matching Studio Display, a 27-inch monitor aimed at professionals.
Launched at Apple's "Peek Performance" event on March 8, the Mac Studio is powered by Apple's new M1 Ultra chip, which is essentially two M1 Max chips rolled into one. With 114 billion transistors and support for up to 128GB of unified RAM, it's Apple's most powerful chip by far. Apple says that a Mac Studio with an M1 Ultra is up to 90% faster than a Mac Pro with a 16-core Intel Xeon chip, and up 3.8x time faster than the fastest, 27-inch iMac with a 10-core processor. The Mac Studio can also be configured with an M1 Max chip.

On the back, it has four Thunderbolt 4 ports, a 10GB Ethernet port, two USB-A ports, an HDMI port, and a headphone jack. Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5 are built-in, too. On the front, there are two additional USB-C ports, and there's also an SD card slot — something photographers will definitely appreciate.

As for the Studio Display, it's an all-aluminum 27-inch display with a 5K resolution, 600 nits of brightness, and support for 1 billion colors.

The Studio Display has four USB-C ports, one of which is a Thunderbolt port that can deliver 96W of power – enough to power a MacBook Pro. The Studio Display can be tilted back 30 degrees with the standard stand, but you can also get it with a more advanced stand that allows for vertical adjustments as well as pivoting.
The Mac Studio starts at $1,999 with the M1 Max chip, and $3,999 with the M1 Ultra chip.
The Apple Studio Display starts at $1,599.
Both devices can be pre-ordered today, with with availability starting on March 18.
