NEC has introduced its new MultiSync EA261Wm LCD display, offering a WUXGA (1,920 by 1,200 pixel) resolution on a 26-inch LCD panel mainly aimed at the business and enterprise market—but there’s no reason the rest of us can’t give it a little consideration as well.

“The new MultiSync EA Series brings premium NEC quality to those users who demand exceptional technology, rich features, top performance and high productivity,” said NEC Display Solutions product manager Lynn Gu, in a statement. “This exciting new series demonstrates our commitment to bringing the highest quality desktop displays to the enterprise market.”

The EA261WM features a 5 ms response time, a 1,000:1 contrast ratio, and 400 cd/m² of brightness. The display can handle 720p and 1080p content via DVI-D (and can handle HDMI with an adapter), and also acts as a four-port USB hub. The monitor also features down-firing speakers, control built right into its bezel, an integrated carrying handle, a cable management cover, and and “Eco” mode for longer display life that takes its power consumption from 90 watts down to just 2 Watts.

NEC says the MultiSync EA261WM will be available in August at an estimated price of $679.99.

Apple has just introduced a redesigned MacBook Pro with a few bells and whistles. The focus this time around is on a thinner and lighter build, and an upgrade to a touch-sensitive OLED screen without any ugly notch. And, in case you were wondering, there is definitely a price premium to pay for these niceties, which also include a glowing Apple logo at the back. What if you wanted to get the best that Apple has to offer? Well, the numbers are finally here.

What’s actually new and different on the MacBook Pro PROLED XDR? Here’s everything you need to know

Touchscreen vs. non-touchscreen MacBook Pro differences

Apple has unveiled its first-ever touchscreen MacBook Pro. The company seems a bit confused about the naming, calling it the "MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display," which is tough to remember. If you look past that and review the full spec sheets, you might ask a genuine question: what are the differences between the touchscreen and non-touchscreen versions?

Given that Apple continues to sell both variants together, that's a genuine question. Luckily, you don't have to spend more time lining up the spec sheets side by side and hunting for differences hidden in the fine print. I took that bullet for you. Here's everything that's different between the PROLED XDR Display and the regular MacBook Pro.
