- Apple's new Pro Display XDR is finally back in stock at Amazon, but it's well outside most people's budgets thanks to a starting price of $5,000... which doesn't even include the $1,000 stand.
- Thankfully, Amazon has plenty of great alternatives that are available at much more reasonable prices, and we've rounded up our five favorite options that are in stock now or set to be back in stock this week.
- Prices start at just $89.99 and several options, including our favorite PC monitor of the bunch, are available to ship immediately despite Amazon's shift away from nonessential products.

There is quite literally nothing on the planet like Apple's new Pro Display XDR. Nothing. It's a 6K Retina display with image quality you truly have to see to believe, and just about every spec you can imagine is completely maxed out. Here are some of the key points from Apple's Pro Display XDR page:
- The first 32-inch Retina 6K display ever. Up to 1600 nits of brightness. An astonishing 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio and superwide viewing angle. Over a billion colors presented with exceptional accuracy. And dynamic range that transforms the professional workflow. Introducing Apple Pro Display XDR, the world’s best pro display.
- XDR. Dynamic range to the extreme. The contrast your eyes see between brightness and darkness is very challenging to reproduce in a display, leading to the development of High Dynamic Range (HDR). With breakthrough backlighting technology, Pro Display XDR takes brightness, contrast, and color to a new level. Far beyond HDR, it’s Extreme Dynamic Range (XDR).
- Typical desktop displays have sustained brightness of around 350 nits. Some pro displays exceed this, but most can only sustain it for short periods of time. Pro Display XDR produces an industry-leading 1000 nits of full-screen sustained brightness and 1600 nits at its peak.1 It gives you the power to maintain extreme brightness without ever dimming. Along with efficient backlight control, this delivers outstanding contrast between the brightest brights and the blackest blacks. The result is an incredible 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio and stunningly real XDR imagery.
- Pro Display XDR always gives you the truest representation of your work. A P3 wide color gamut provides a color palette capable of creating the most vibrant imagery. With true 10-bit color, Pro Display XDR can produce more than a billion colors with extreme accuracy. State-of-the-art calibration and a sophisticated algorithm ensure that you get the highest-quality color possible.
- LED in a whole new light. True-to-life imagery requires having extremely bright areas of the screen right next to extremely dark areas. Without precise backlight control, this can cause an unintended glow called blooming. Pro Display XDR is able to dramatically reduce blooming using advanced LED technology, light shaping, and intelligent image processing.
And that's just the tip of the iceberg! If you work in an industry and you have a real need for this kind of professional-grade sorcery, you'll be happy to know that the Pro Display XDR is finally available for purchase on Amazon. How much will this insanity set you back? The Pro Display XDR with standard glass is an even $4,999, while the upgraded model with special Nano-texture glass is $5,999. Oh, and neither of those prices include the Pro Stand, so that'll cost you an extra $999.
Apple 32-inch Pro Display XDR with Retina 6K Display - Standard Glass: $4,999.00
Apple 32-inch Pro Display XDR with Retina 6K Display - Nano-Texture Glass: $5,949.96
Apple Pro Stand: $994.00
If you've got enough money to be able to warrant that type of purchase, congratulations on living the dream. If, like the rest of us mere mortals, you'd rather not spend as much on a PC monitor as some people might spend on a car, Amazon has a bunch of other deals on awesome displays that you should definitely check out. They might not be quite as impressive as the Pro Display XDR, but they also don't cost a bazillion dollars. Our favorite is probably The Space by Samsung — check out how cool the design is!
