Big step forward from their last 23"!

by rasi2290 , Oct 06 '06
Pros: Thin .75" bezel, light, gorgeous aluminum cabinet, compatible with any Mac or PC with DVI.
Cons: Price. No height adjustment. Buttons are touch-sensitive and only work inside OS
I've been staring at Apple monitors all day long for the last 12 years or so, and to be perfectly frank, I was never thrilled with the original HD Cinema Display. Not in the 23", or any other size. It was absurdly expensive for the performance, it was ...

Great Working Space, Quality Image - a Comparison to the Dell 20" Flat Panel

by jktucker , May 01 '05
Pros: Quality image, no jags when running vector graphics programs.
Cons: Expensive. The stand tilts but doesn't raise or lower.
When I set out to find a new monitor for my home office set up, I looked at the Mac and the Dell models. I let price make up my mind-- the Dell 20" flat panel won out. When I asked for a new monitor at work, I went with the 23" Apple. One of the ...

Excellent Display: Expensive But Worth It, Even With Shortcomings

by t_o_n_y , Mar 17 '09
Pros: Compatible with older DVI connections, Excellent Image Quality, Attractive Design, Portable, Durable
Cons: Expensive, lacks features of newer Apple displays, clunky cord.
**** Oct 2009 UpdateWe've now had this display 7 months, and still feel it is a great product.  However, I recently learned that there is now a work-around to the compatibility problem I mentioned in my initial review (below).  I was told ...

23" Aluminum Apple Cinema Display

by kerijane1 , Oct 21 '08
Pros: Style, Quality, Great color accuracy, Bright, Solid stand, Good Value, Tidy Cable Management
Cons: USB Firewire ports can be awkward to reach. Some PC videocards don't work with it
The 23" Apple Cinema Display is my favorite display so far. I originally bought it for use with a PC which had an incompatible video card. Replacing the card got it to work with this monitor. A free utility called WinACD helps enormously when using the ...

Nightmare - Going back (UPDATED)

by rslifka , Jul 15 '05
Pros: None. (it never worked - how can I say?)
Cons: Doesn't work on PC as advertised.
I should have listened... countless PC users have had nightmarish experiences getting this monitor to work (see the Apple support forums, and Google of course). We've tried 4 video cards (with increasing 'horsepower') on an otherwise perfectly ...

Great Monitor for Productivity or Movies!

by kappaknight , Feb 27 '08
Pros: Work seamlessly with Macs and MacBooks, adds USB and Firewire ports
Cons: cost, no built in iSight cam for direct use with iMac Pro's
I bought the new Apple HD Cinema 23" monitor to connect to my 15" MacBook Pro. Although the laptop is great for daily use and travel, I wanted more visual real estate when working from home. While expensive, this monitor has been a great purchase! ...

apple moniter
by skyline34 ,Jun 11 '05

Cons: got missing pixels on the first day i got it
I have the dell xps and a mac.I had the 19"inch dell's ultrasharp moniter and just recently bought the apple 23" hd moniter. I like the apple moniter because you can display alot more thing and my 19"inch couldn't, so i ditch the dell moniter and use the apple more.

Very good. Buy it.
by davebarnes ,Jan 30 '06
Pros: image quality, style
Cons: does not have an analog input
I own:
1. Samsung 191T+ 19-inch LCD monitor
2. Apple 20-inch LCD monitor
3. Apple 23-inch LCD monitor.

The Apple 23-inch LCD monitor is very impressive. My only real complaint is that Apple does not make a 25-inch version as the 30-inch is too large.

I bought my Apple LCD from CompUSA because I could inspect it BEFORE purchase. Mine had/has zero bad pixels. The color and sharpness are excellent.
