Rated 5 out of 5Â by Capnbob Outstanding clarity
I was worried that this larger screen would simply stretch the old number pixels. Of course not--It's Apple after all. This is an astonishing good display. Color is excellent, and resolutiion is astounding. One note: The cord connecting to the computer is significantly shorter than on my previous Cinema display. Had to move my computer. Well worth it.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by klatu Excellent in all respects
Completely satisfied with high quality and feel it is best in this price range for video and still editing.
Only criticism is that the operations manual is very poorly written. For example, the protocol for "clam shell mode" is totally wrong and misleading and only after a call to Apple Care did l learn the actual method for achieving this [i.e., running the computer with the lid closed and just using the large screen].
Apparently it is the last of the Cinema Displays to work with NON Thunderbolt computers, unless Apple brings out another non-Thunderbolt display.
There is a lot of dealer confusion on this issue.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by wakamesalad Excellent, classy, timeless display
I had high expectations upon ordering the 27" Apple Cinema Display. After all, shelling out a G for something that doesn't even have a computer attached is a pretty luxurious expense these days. However, all of my expectations were met, and then some. The colors are bright and gorgeous. The images are so true to life because there is no matte finish it appears that they are sitting right in front of you. I like the glossy display, some don't. The sound system built in is also of high quality. I don't even use external speakers with my Cinema Display, which reduces clutter and wires even more. The aluminum materials are stunning to look at and also prove that you are getting your moneys worth and not buying another pile of plastic like other vendors are pushing. Not only are you getting a large HD display, you are also getting a piece of art to look at when it's off.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Bias Great display
It's a great display, ready to use right out of the box, great design. The connection cables are well thought out, especially the use of the power supply that connects to my Macbook Pro (this eliminates the need for a separate power supply for the Macbook). The speakers/sound quality are decent enough. All together it's great monitor, just a little pricey though.
