Upgrade paths

display

Fixed 5120x2880 IPS panel, factory sealed · No user-serviceable panel or internals; teardown means prying the aluminum back off, which voids support. The unit's most famous fault, flicker and disconnects near 2.4GHz WiFi routers, has no hardware fix, only workarounds like moving the router or switching it to 5GHz.

LOCKED

ports

Locked to 1x Thunderbolt 3 upstream and 3x USB-C 3.1 downstream · Downstream ports are data-only pass-through (useful for keyboard, drive, or a second UltraFine chained off it), not additional Thunderbolt or extra display outputs.
