Apple typically adds products five to seven years past the end of sales to the list of obsolete devices. The Thunderbolt display was introduced back in 2011, and since its introduction, it has never seen another updated version. Its sale was officially ended on June 23, 2016, and this monitor never saw its successor. Apple then in 2017, he introduced his collaboration with LG, new LG displays UltraFine, but for a display that would come directly and exclusively from the company's workshop Apple, users had to wait for some time.
When the Cupertino company introduced its new iPhone in 2019 Mac Pro, also introduced a new Pro The XDR Display – however, due to its features, quality, and price, it was definitely not meant to be a successor to the relatively affordable Thunderbolt Display. It didn't take long for speculation to begin to emerge that Apple is preparing another monitor of its own, which would also be available to ordinary consumers. At the beginning of January this year, there were reports that the production of new Apple displays should be in the initial stages of development, but not much is known about the displays themselves.
Owners of Thunderbolt displays thus lose the right to repair from now on. Apple initially refused to repair any of the devices that were on the list of obsolete products, but that changed in 2019. Even after this change, the exceptions apply mainly to iPhones and Macs. In addition to the Thunderbolt display, the original iPad Air and 27″ Apple Cinema display.
