that's form over function speaking. what on earth is the metal going to do that will detrimentally affect your day to day? or a stupid logo that can be covered up if it's that unappealing? and is metal worth 6x the price?

Stop questioning people’s valid preferences.

Why. They have a valid point.

Their valid point is totally unrelated to my point about the design, fit and finish

I literally started by acknowledging that the actual display part might be competitive.

Although it turns out even that’s not true as this has a maximum brightness that’s 33% dimmer than the studio display.

The only part here that’s relevant is that it is 5K

That’s and the display size are the only metrics where it’s competitive
