> you can get very nice displays for less than half the price that are 98% the same on specs.

Can you recommend any displays with PPI and brightness equivalent to the studio display, with 120Hz+ refresh rates? I was waiting for this announcement to buy a studio display because I thought they might bring 120Hz to the base model, but $3300 is a lot to spend on a single display. I have an original studio display and a high refresh rate 4K OLED monitor, and they are both compromises unfortunately.

I haven't found a glossy competitor, or even one with the same HDR spec, but this is the closest I could find so far.

The price point is super painful. 2k would have been bad enough but I would have considered it. It’s a no go at $3,300 for me.
