At Apple’s Peek Performance event, the company announced the Studio Display. As these displays first got into the hands of customers they began to realize that the power cable is not removable – or rather, it’s not meant to be user-removable. Apple has its own tool to remove the cable, but it’s not exactly easy.
Apple’s tool allows the Studio Display’s cable to be wrapped around it, then the main tube rests against the stand and the handle provides leverage. It takes quite a bit of force to remove the cable from the Studio Display, and Apple says the power cord is “not removable.”
It’s important to note that Apple’s cable isn’t meant to be regularly removed and reinserted, and it’s unlikely the company will offer replacement cables at various lengths to fit your setup, so it’s still not advisable to remove the cable unnecessarily.
