Review: 27" Apple Cinema Display

[ibanez0830]

just buy an NEC monitor. Matte screen, IPS, more available connections, and more size selections. No gimmicks like cameras, useless speakers, or LED scam.

[AIR23SAM]

You don't sound too scripted

[evilbobsta]

monotone much?

[DenSjoveDansker]

do your mac need to be open, or can you just turn it off?

[DenSjoveDansker]

what should i buy a 27" cinema display or a 21.5 imac?

[warlocksmight]

@DenSjoveDansker What do you need? If you need computer screen then go with cinema display but if you want new PC then go with iMac.

[cvunit]

does he use that mic for sound changer?

[christoffer501]

Whats the intro song name? 

[ps3psnps3]

way too much bokeh in this

[SuperDonovan911]

Good job man. Fuck all the people that talk bad about you. You did what you wanted to do and all the people that dislike your video are just poor jealous bitches

[audiomaster247]

u sound like like a spastic lol

[ameerlicious]

How about Macbooks like my 17 inch, it has no thunderbolt port and the current display only has thunderbolt. Can i still use it?

[Etherouge]

A glossy finished display allows for a lower quality monitor.

A matte finished display doesn't allow that.

[Nintendogeek98]

no affence but you sound like a robot... but i think youre awsome

[FilmlandFilms]

why is it soo expensive

[rtownz251251]

nice video man! I love the apple cinema display but to be honest. I LOVE the design. to me it just looks amazing! I would like to ask you: do you have any other macs other than the macbook air? otherwise you pretty much paid the same ammount of money for the macbook as you did for the cinema display which would be a little useless to be honest. Anyways thanks for the good review and I am subscribe to you right now ;)

[HerHeroboyy]

I hate when you slowly focus the camera like that. okay it can give nice effects, but not when you use it all the time.

[spuji]

Loving the accent!

[Jazzper06]

No HDMI port?

[TheJregz]

dude can you link your cool wallpaper in the description

[psp10004]

BLURRY is not cool when you focus sooo slowly, i need aspirin...

[sapsomsenseintoyou]

Isn't this the voice of salad fingers???

[mrappleman6191]

everyone who's hating, why don't you try to make a video on youtube. Pricks

[superCalzer]

script mate?

[AppScreencast]

@superCalzer

why wouldn't he have a script? thats a good review, ..preparation.

[TheInformalstyle]

It looks like my iMac except without the metal bit at the bottom of the screen (and no computer inside)

[chronofusion]

wow 65 dislikes...more like 65 picky idiots that felt like picking on the video narrator/creator of this video.

Grow up people. At least he wasn't play lady goo goo gaa gaa or the typical dumbass teenie bopper msm pop crap peusic ( peusic = want to be music that makes those of REAL intelligence want to vomit)

[WowBloke]

Why buy a macbook air? If you bought a 900 pounds screen why not go the whole hog and get a mac pro or mac mini? I mean if i already had a screen i wouldn't use a laptop to power it

[chronofusion]

@WowBloke i don't blame you for what is very common intelligent logic. However, 1 point. Perhaps he bought just the display so he could have a bigger screen at home...and on the go still have the portability of a notebook computer that is powerful enough to be his home desktop machine. ( shruggs shoulders)

[BigRooster747]

is it showing odd ticking noises just below medium brightness as did the 24?

[997239978]

Apple

[TANKJAY2]

apple products give me boner!

[stylizhmathias]

Youre a video editor and then you use macbook air? Ha!

[TalesOfWar]

@ninjaboyman10 Sure, if your GPU has Mini DisplayPort... erm... ports lol. If you're rocking DVI and HDMI though the Dell U2711 may be a better choice for you. Very comparable displays when it comes to the actual display part, though the Dell is matte rather than glossy which tends to be better for editing work.

[hotnovel]

yeah it looks god and shit but i will never ever pay 1000 dollars for a fucking screen.

[TheSUBGAMER]

fucking mirror

people if you have eye strain when using it iit is because it is a glossy peace of shit

[SuperNabeel1234]

am I the only one who thinks the Apple Cinema Display is overpriced

[xxatwxx10]

2000 ur fuckign crazy apple is so gay

[CelebrityEndorsement]

If Salad Fingers did tech reviews.

[matthewodonnellcfc]

You sound depressed.

[TheBrink15]

oh my fucking god you have the most boring voice i have ever heard seriously you could kill with that voice

[Zeaded]

Ur very layer back eh!

[UltravioletSRB]

repeat 1:14 :D

[DCSHEEP158]

a $1,000 27" apple monitor OR a $700 46" 1080p LCD HDTV? umm... i pick the tv.

[gizmolover28]

@DCSHEEP158 Then again this screen is more than just 1080p, its 1440p.. :)

[generischernutzer]

@DCSHEEP158

One might prefer the much cheaper Dell displays using the same IPS panels (no LED backlight however), but a 46" TV..? Why? God, why?

Such a TV requires further distance from the viewer due to its much lower pixel density, but that's actually okay, because it's a TV. So why would you compare it to a computer screen?

[HenkSpankK]

the camera is focusing sooo slow :S

[simonheester]

As you can see, we have 27" of beauty! - CLASSIC! :)

[Luisonov]

Und immer schön die anderen geräte nebenan auf stellen, damit sicher jeder sieht, dass du ein ipas hst!

[TheKevinDasilva]

Wait, I don't understand...

This ISN'T an iMac. It ISN'T a computer.

It's just a separate window for you to work on, it has to be connected to another computer/laptop to be used as a computer?

In other words, this is just an ultra awesome monitor...

[Drome090]

Hard to sit through, that gosh darn camera blur and focus effect is soooooooooooooo annoying

[shariff007]

Hey mate, what is the background music? You may want to put it in ur description and give it credit so we folks can look it up :)

[d7oom977]

why wolud you buy a 1000$ apple display you can get a hp display for 199

[McsTarget]

@d7oom977 you didn't just compare a Apple Cinema Display to a hp monitor :(

[d7oom977]

@McsTarget it's the same i compare it to my brother's imac and even the hp is a little better for hd movies

[McsTarget]

@d7oom977 the reason 4 that is if you have a 1080p movie it has to upscale to fit the imac or cinema display (which degrades the quality.) What I meant was the apple quality will be a lot better then hp :)

[d7oom977]

@McsTarget man some people buy it just because the apple logo :/ they think it's the best in thr world 

[ImaginedWriter]

I am too poor for this stuff.

[HU55UN1]

Is this different from the one u get with an iMac?

[redsfan269]

Jesus fucking christ your voice makes me want to kick a puppy! Its a nice video but still..... ggggrrrrrr

[abvmoose87]

great review but.. you say that that the mac iar can output 4 million pixels. Can you say what resolution the macbook pro can output max? can it output a resolution that matches the native resolution of the 27 inch display?

[aybeeceeboi]

ron weasley

[biderman16]

way to be enthusiastic, dumbass!

[pharcyde24]

great review, but IMO too many soft focus-to-focus transitions, it actually started to hurt my eyes mid-way through.

[brother252525]

Love it but already out of date the new cinema display our in 6/8 weeks with 2 connections and not three still £999

Nothing wrong with Gt Harwood

Nice chip shop there

[WiiSpeakApple]

@brother252525 Haha and how would you know that? :)

[itsBENgreen]

can you plug in the magsafe if you have the mini display cable plugged in at the same time?

[Cruiseman3214]

More like 27 inches of pure glory!

[lukeool]

This guy is so enthusiastic

[Eurxpe]

I understand all you people saying his voice is weird and yes he does talk slow but maybe he can't help it, hes just trying to help you guys out, give him a break!

[sijs2007]

Good review to slowly voice and shit camera effects

[skittb89]

lol why did you paint your macbook air keys white

[macosftw]

@skittb89 it's not paint its a cover for your keyboard so it doesnt wear out as much

[jmcphee7]

lol at the youtube trolls dissing how you speak. Little people who sit behind keyboards, probably scared of the sunlight outside. Anyway, good review, good video. I recognise your accent. Are you a Blackburn lad? They way you said "pounds" give it away, i'd even stick my neck out and pin you down to Gt Harwood. Lancashire anyway!?

[OfficialJimmyH]

to much fucking blur

[ProDaviid]

You speak like a fucking retard!

[tombqnyc]

best monitor but glossy

us not workable in office

or home for that monitor

[sachamun]

I thought this was Daxflame at first.

[Darkteammadfiz]

It would look amazing if you had a camera of the same quality.

[itsBENgreen]

 you are my idol

[samthewildone]

@itsBENgreen Not when they are forcing every company out their business.

[dannwe123]

Is your voice always this monotonous?

Nice video though!

[Channel4Four]

you talk like forrest gump!

[gregmilev32]

you sound gay as fuck

[CTheAwesomePowner]

I like it but AHH so out of focus!

[david181993]

You said aluminum and you aren't even american.

You sir, fail.

[YourLoveLetter]

@david181993 you have to say it the american way if its an american product lol

[david181993]

@YourLoveLetter Lol, are you serious?

[YourLoveLetter]

@david181993 no.. lol

[david181993]

@YourLoveLetter Then explain why Jonathan Ive, a British designer who has designed numerous apple products, possibly the cinema display being one of them, says aluminium the british way.

[YourLoveLetter]

@david181993 i said i wasnt being serious... its just a preference really. Ive heard non americans say it the american way, i was just humoring the idea that maybe they think they should say it that way because apple is an american company.

[david181993]

@YourLoveLetter Ah sorry ignore me then lol. It's late, I'm barely awake and seem to have lost the ability to read.

[shutinyanks]

you sound like you have speech problems you fucking dork. why do people feel the need to upload this shit. i'll bet your room is full of cum stains you weirdo.

[Channel4Four]

@shutinyanks AHAHAHAHAHAHA something tells me you're probably right bro. what a douche

[applehelpproductions]

Of course it does not have a damn SD Card slot or Super Drive its a MONITOR

[MrFadeCatton]

You sound like google translate

[TheOllybanks]

Just a few pointers for future videos; work on your focus swings a bit. Also it's 40 million pixels 4 million works out as 4 mega pixels and i know that's wrong,

[quest8899]

is apple coming out with a thunderbolt compatible monitor

[iMhike]

You have decent videography but the way you talk, my goodness I wanted to gouge my ears out

[TechKidzUK]

Do you have to connect it to a mac to use it?

[LErichAl]

@TechKidzUK No but your Video card needs to have MiniDisplay Ports which is only really included in the High End nVidia and ATI cards.

[cl6315]

accent reminds me of forrest gump

[Benjomatic]

You edit video on a macbook air?!

[TheOmgfruitcake]

@Benjomatic my thoughts exactly

[olzauk123]

Hiiiiiiiii

[osborl12]

Your accent is interesting, what country/region are you from?

[TheMusicCloud]

Gosh, you actually sent me to sleep!

[AppsEverywhere]

Really nice video! Subscribed to your channel, good videos! A question, why did you buy the MacBook Air and the LED Cinema Display? Because in an earlier video I saw that you have an iMac 27'' too? 

[WiiSpeakApple]

@AppsEverywhere We have all three 

[autotune360]

@WiiSpeakApple

dude you fucking idiot it isent a fucking coputer. i have never herd of a display that has a superdrive or a sd slot

[eaglewings8]

@autotune360

Well the iMac does.

[JaVaDuEgu]

When will apple release Macbook pro and macbook 2011?

[mangaecchi]

the cinema diiiiiiiiiiisplay :D

[RandomDom3297]

your camera un-focusing is really starting to hurt my eyes D:

[TheComputer988]

great review, nice camera work



[jaysenstudios]

cool! I'm better of getting a tv

[gothbot6k]

How can you afford this stuff???

[GoDTuTs]

i have a 13" macbook which sucks for graphics design and coding which is what im into. id definately get this but its to much money. good job on the review, im glad im a subscriber

[JSantana319]

@GoDTuTs Have u thought of selling your 13 inch Macbook Pro? How about selling your 13 inch Macbook Pro and then go for an 21.5 iMac or 27? If you need the portability, then the 15 or 17 i7 Macbook Pro can help tremendously I think.

[GoDTuTs]

@JSantana319 I dont have a macbook pro, just a regular macbook, and its worth nothing basically. but its fine for now and ill sell it anyway when i need to upgrade

[M3RKMUS1C]

i like your vids, but pleeeez pronounce a - lum - i - num correctly! lol, i've heard you do this a lot and I wanted to point it out

[MrCr80man]

@M3RKMUS1C Who cares??

[M3RKMUS1C]

@MrCr80man well proper pronunciation should be important to his video making so I guess me an him care, unless there's other people that care about his videos as well

[podreviewz]

Cool review!

[TechdawgLtd]

Great Video, and Peter Bjorn are beast, heard it in the back ground

[2secondman]

have this monitor and 13" air i like it.



[mindkilla123]

Your desk looks so clean lol my desk is a complete mess, also thank you for this review it was very helpful.

[WirelessHotShot]

Nice video, but I think speaking as a consumer level would be even better. :)

[WiiSpeakApple]

@WirelessHotShot Yeah, I have to agree, there will most likely be some other tests/small reviews coming soon anyway :)

[xToXiicxT3RRoRx]

whats you other new channel called again i wana sub
