Apple’s Thunderbolt Display is dead: These are the best 4K & 5K displays for Mac

Site default logo image

If you’ve been holding out for a new standalone desktop display from Apple, you’re either going to take news of the Thunderbolt Display being discontinued as a sign of good things to come, or as a cue to finally purchase a new 4K or 5K display from someone else. For most, especially considering Apple itself is recommending you purchase a third-party display, the latter option is going to be the more likely.

While Apple didn’t recommend any specific third-party alternatives during its discontinuation announcement of the Thunderbolt display last week, we’ve done the work for you and put together our top picks for the best 4K & 5K displays for Mac available to buy right now.

Position your iPad as a secondary monitor or anywhere else w/ Twelve South HoverBar 3: $75 shipped (Reg. $100)

Amazon offers the Twelve South HoverBar 3 for $74.99 with free shipping, which is 25% below its regular price and the best deal we’ve ever seen.

Features include:

  • HoverBar clamps almost anywhere for adjustable hands-free use of your iPad
  • Heavy duty yet delicate clamp secures to any surface up to 1-inch thick 
  • Creates a hands-free kitchen mount or desktop workstation with no install required
  • Includes extra kickstand that creates a handy tabletop display
  • Includes Fit Clips for iPad Air, iPad mini and iPad (2nd – 4th generation)

[vimeo 95278183 w=853 h=480]

Combo it with Duet for iOS and you’ll have a killer dual monitor setup.

Our conclusion after reviewing the Hoverbar 3:

For most people, it’s kind of a luxury item. It’s not that difficult to use an existing or cheaper stand to position the iPad roughly where you want it on a desk or kitchen worktop, and not too great a hardship to hold it while watching movies or reading books in bed.

But I have to say that within a very short time, I came to rely on it. The ability to place the iPad exactly where you want it, and to indulge in the sheer laziness of having it hover above the pillow in bed, is very appealing.

My only minor gripe is that the hex-nut system for applying the clamp means it’s not an instant job to move it from one place to the other. It’s not difficult, but some kind of flip-handle clamp would be great. But if you mostly expect to use it on one place, and just need to push it out of the way the rest of the time, leaving the clamp in place, it’s highly recommended.

Twelve South makes really great accessories for Apple products, but if you’re looking to save even more money then you could go with this similar iPad mount from Taotronics for $35.99.
