Is the Apple Studio Display really worth twice as much as the ASUS PA27CDV with OLED and 120Hz?

My wife and I do a lot of printing, so we recently upgraded our home office printer to the Xerox C303. Here are a couple of features we wanted to highlight! Thanks to @Xerox for sponsoring this video. You can find the Xerox C303 here: http://www.xerox.com/getC303a #xerox #homeoffice #desksetup

Thank you ASUS for supporting my work on this channel and sponsoring this video! I compare ASUS's latest 4K 120Hz OLED monitor (the PA279CDV) against the Apple Studio Display. I compare everything from resolution (4K vs 5K), to OLED vs IPS, build quality, connectivity, and more.

Buying privately from individuals on FaceBook marketplace or Craigslist or similar can save you even more money, but is riskier. You have to be really careful, I’ve done this multiple times but I prefer not to. Firstly be careful, meet in a safe location like outside a police station or public location. Then, I check for 2 main things - no iCloud or corporate MDM activation locks, and secondly testing everything physical. So I’ll have the seller set it up in advance if they haven’t already so that I can use and access everything, I’ll restart the Mac, check every key, trackpad, webcam, dead pixels on the screen, it charges ok and the ports work fine, the speakers are ok etc. If all of these things are working and there are no locks, it’s probably ok. But again I encourage you to be as thorough as possible.
