AppleInsider StaffAnnounced in tandem with the 2016 MacBook Pros, LG's 27" UltraFine 5K Display was developed in partnership with Apple. Despite a modest design, the monitor's color accuracy, brightness, contrast and sharpness make it a worthy successor to Apple's defunct Thunderbolt Display.

And yes, it's plastic... ...would an upgrade to the venerable cinema/thunderbolt display with a 2160p (4K) or 2880p (5K) panel, usb-3.1 and tb-3 (usb-c) ports have been at least consistent, if not innovative...?
Could you please test the 27" UltraFine with a Mac Pro 2013? Sorry this is probably a stupid question, but do the FaceTime camera and speakers work through the tb3 to tb2 converter?

With the Apple Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter and a Thunderbolt cable, you can use the LG UltraFine 5K Display at 4K and lower resolutions with these Mac models: 3840 x 2160 @ 60Hz Mac Pro (Late 2013)* yes please test the macpro late 2013 with the thunderbolt adapter.
