Apple has unveiled a new 27-inch LED Cinema Display with a vast 16:9, 2560 x 1440 resolution giving it 60% more screen space than the 24-inch model.
In common with its smaller sibling, it has a built-in iSight video camera, microphone and speakers, powered USB 2.0 hub, and universal MagSafe power connector to charge any MacBook or Mac desktop connected via the Mini DisplayPort port.
The edge-to-edge glass display sits on an aluminium stand with an adjustable hinge. IPS technology provides a 178° viewing angle.
It also has an new ambient light sensor which automatically adjusts the display brightness based on external lighting conditions and designed to use only as much energy as necessary to provide the optimal viewing experience.
Made with mercury-free LED technology, arsenic-free glass and highly recyclable materials, the LED Cinema Display meets stringent Energy Star 5.0 requirements and achieves EPEAT Gold status. The new display contains no brominated flame retardants and all cables and components are PVC-free.
The new LED Cinema Display will be available in September. UK pricing will be announced at a later stage. The LED Cinema Display requires a Mac with Mini DisplayPort.
