Apple claims that customers can accomplish things with Mac Studio that they couldn’t do on any other desktop, such as generating large 3D scenes and playback 18 streams of ProRes video.
A 27-inch 5K Retina display, a 12MP Ultra-Wide camera with Center Stage, and a high-fidelity six-speaker sound system with spatial audio are all included in Mac Studio.

The Mac Studio is tiny in size thanks to its single aluminium extrusion with a square footprint of just 7.7 inches and a height of only 3.7 inches, yet it packs a punch when it comes to networking. Mac Studio has four Thunderbolt 4 connections on the rear for connecting displays and high-performance peripherals. A 10Gb Ethernet port, two USB-A ports, an HDMI connector, and a pro audio jack for high-impedance headphones or external amplified speakers.

On the front, two USB-C ports support 10Gb/s USB 3 on the M1 Max and 40Gb/s Thunderbolt 4 on the M1 Ultra. There’s also an SD card slot for quickly importing photographs and videos on the front. Mac Studio also supports up to four Pro Display XDRs and a 4K TV for a total of roughly 90 million pixels.
