Brilliant. In more ways than one.
An LED display that turns your notebook into a desktop and has a built-in iSight camera, microphone, and speaker system is one must-have MacBook Pro and MacBook Air accessory.
One cable that replaces three. Ready, set, go.
Mini DisplayPort
The LED Cinema Display connects to your new MacBook Pro or MacBook Air with the ultracompact Mini DisplayPort connector. Other display connectors have you lining up pins or fumbling with screws. The new Mini DisplayPort connector is easy in, easy out. Now, you can also attach your LED Cinema Display to new Mac desktops with Mini DisplayPort, including Mac Pro, Mac mini, and iMac.
MagSafe connector
The LED Cinema Display includes a MagSafe connector that powers and charges your new MacBook Pro or MacBook Air. The connector sits on your desk, ready and waiting. No need to unravel the cord to the power adapter that came with your notebook. Leave it exactly where it is, in your bag.
USB 2.0 ports
On the back of the display, you’ll find three self-powered USB ports. You enable them — along with the built-in iSight camera, microphone, and speakers — the moment you plug the USB connector into your new Mini DisplayPort-enabled Mac, including the MacBook Pro family and MacBook Air, as well as Mac Pro, Mac mini, and iMac. Connect a printer, camera, iPod, iPhone, whatever you like. And they can stay connected, even if you grab your notebook and go.
A 24-inch widescreen display with LED backlight technology. Stunning is an understatement.
Extended desktop
When you connect your new MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, or Mini DisplayPort-enabled Mac desktops (Mac Pro, Mac mini, iMac) to the LED Cinema Display, it’s like upgrading your screen to first class. The 24-inch glossy widescreen display gives your work room to move. And the 1920-by-1200 resolution gives it room to impress.
LED backlighting. One bright idea.
Full brightness with no waiting. That’s the big advantage of the LED-backlit technology. Unlike most displays that take time to warm up before they reach maximum brightness, an LED-backlit display is instantly on and uniformly bright. LED backlighting also gives you greater control over screen brightness. So you can finely tune the LED Cinema Display to suit the ambient light in even the dimmest room.
Stunning from every angle.
The LED Cinema Display looks great from any seat in the house, thanks to a premium display technology called in-plane switching (IPS). IPS gives you a bright picture with excellent color consistency — even if you’re viewing the display from the side.
Built-in iSight, mic, and speakers
With the built-in iSight camera, microphone, and speakers, you can connect your MacBook Pro or MacBook Air — leaving it open or closed — and engage in video chats* or listen to music. And now you can also connect it to a Mini DisplayPort-enabled Mac Pro or Mac mini to instantly enjoy these convenient video and audio features.
Smooth-motion hinge
Tilt the LED Cinema Display to get the viewing angle that’s best for your work environment. With its smooth-motion hinge, adjustment is effortless. Choose an angle anywhere from -5 to 25 degrees.
Environmental Status Report
The LED Cinema Display is designed with the following features to reduce its environmental impact:
- Arsenic-free display glass
- Mercury-free
- BFR-free
- PVC-free internal cables
- Highly recyclable aluminum and glass enclosure
The LED Cinema Display is the most environmentally friendly display Apple has ever created.
Free of harmful toxins
One thing that makes the LED Cinema Display so remarkable is what it lacks. Namely, environmentally harmful mercury. And like the latest-generation iPod, iPhone, and Mac computers, the glass used in the display is arsenic-free. Even the internal cables and components are BFR- and PVC-free.
Highly recyclable
Because of its glass and aluminum construction, the LED Cinema Display is highly recyclable. So when you eventually part with it, rest assured it can be remade into something new.
Energy Efficient
The LED Cinema Display is designed to be energy efficient right out of the box. It uses mercury-free, energy-efficient LED backlight technology which can be dimmed further than conventional displays to provide comfortable viewing in less brightly lit rooms. It also features a highly-efficient power supply to minimize the power wasted when bringing electricity from the wall for both the display and to charge your Mac notebook. This is our most energy-efficient display yet.
