The Apple Thunderbolt Display is a 27-inch flat panel computer monitor developed by Apple Inc. and sold from July 2011 to June 2016. Originally priced at $999, it replaced Apple’s 27-inch Cinema Display.[1] It integrates a webcam, speakers and microphone, as well as several ports (ethernet, FireWire 800, USB 2.0, and a downstream Thunderbolt port).[2]
The Thunderbolt Display was discontinued in June 2016, and replaced by LG UltraFine displays Apple developed with LG on the consumer end, while the Pro Display XDR succeeded it in 2019 as Apple's professional display. In 2022, the Apple Studio Display was released as the first Apple-branded consumer display since its discontinuation.
The Thunderbolt Display requires a computer with a Thunderbolt port; only Mac computers are supported officially.[2] Most Macs released since 2011 (with some exceptions) are compatible. Mac models released since 2016 are supported but require a Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 adapter.[3] Despite using the same physical connector, it does not work with Mini DisplayPort input, and similarly, the adapter does not make it compatible with USB-C in general.[3]
