what's up guys it's Lou from unbox therapy and today we're taking a look at the Thunderbolt display from Apple a unique display in the sense that it offers some expandability and functionality that really no other display on the market offers I'll be it at a price this retails for about a thousand bucks so you know it's not for people trying to protect their pocketbooks anyhow the only other thing in the box besides the display is a little user manual here telling you how to get it up and running you probably won't need to read this and other than that you've got the power cable so nothing too exciting there the display is what this unboxing is all about and first of all the reason why I'm excited about this Thunderbolt interface is because it gives all this expandability right on the monitor and the reason I like that is because I use primarily a MacBook Pro and this is gonna allow for me to leave most of my peripherals connected to one device and then I can you know pull my macbook pro from the set up remove just two cables get on with my life come back insert two cables and have access to all of the extra peripherals connected to these ports here so on the back of the display you've got three USB of firewire 800 another Thunderbolt port and a Gigabit Ethernet port and you can leave your devices attached to these and then sort of insert and take out your MacBook Pro as you so desire very cool now the display is not very adjustable from the standpoint of normal monitor adjustability there is no height adjustment it's just got a little bit of a tilt to it but I've gotten used to this with most of Apple's monitors over the years you're just gonna get a little bit of tilt and you sacrifice you know a little bit of adjustability in exchange for a nice appearance of course as it has might be the case with a lot of Apple products you're also gonna get an iSight camera built-in a microphone to replace the one that you're probably not going to be using on your macbook pro you've got the Thunderbolt cable of course which transmits everything that you need to transmit to the display and you've got a MagSafe connector built in to power your macbook pro or air as well the entire display is about the width of an SD card and here is the beauty as I mentioned before two cables to connect and disconnect when you want to pull your MacBook Pro away from your desktop setup very very convenient I mean this thing's even got speakers built-in so the Thunderbolt interface really allows for an incredible amount of data throughput and that's how devices like this are possible even outputting the amazing resolution that this one does you're getting 2560 by 1440 pixels pumped out to this display a ton of screen real estate I'm really impressed to this point if you guys want to see a review let me know down in the comments section this displays been a lot of fun already to use for work and for entertainment so anyway guys if you enjoyed this unboxing and first look please like and favorite the video as it does help me out a bunch if you haven't subscribed yet please go ahead and do that too and if you haven't friended me on Facebook yet why not do that I share a lot of content on facebook on my personal profile unrelated son boxing sometimes sometimes just cool stuff I find around the Internet so go ahead and friend me I'll put a link down in the description it's facebook.com slash my name if you request my friendship I shall give it to you any fan of unbox therapy is a friend of mine anyway guys until next time catch you around a channel okay later
