    If you get an Apple Studio + a cheap non apple monitor, what's the audio & webcam solution? Seems most monitors are a bit crappy, no web cam, no speakers...

    I'm increasingly being drawn to just getting the new apple monitor...

    • Speakers in monitors are garbage anyways. A cheap pair of Logitech's (or whatever) will be 10x better.section_014
    • considering that apple monitor myself but usually no speakers and webcam is a good thing... current is LG 32" ultrafine + Razer Kiyo + Adam A7xkingsteven
    • Apple = 1 decision/purchase. Non-apple = 3 decisions/purchases = more time researching, setting up etc.shapesalad
    • Similar quality webcam is another $100, make sure it has a mic!

    • External speakers take up precious desk space and will be worse on video calls.
      ********
    • Studio Display speakers/mic make sense. It’s not for quality music or audio monitoring. It’s for zoom calls without headphones.
      ********
    • In other words, the display audio doesn’t replace good speakers for those who need them. Serves a different purpose.

    • Why would anyone want speakers on the monitor? Zoom calls go through your reg speakers anyway, no need to cheap/limited speakers on your screen.formed
    • The speakers in the monitor are better than the laptop. Zoom calls would use the monitor speakers derp.monospaced
    • A monitor with speakers is great for people who want to hear sound coming from the computer and don’t want separate speakers.monospaced
