Specifications

Screen size: 16.1″
Panel: CRT (Nominal 17-inch Sony Trinitron CRT with 16.1-inch viewable diagonal. Maker Service Source specifies 0.26 mm stripe pitch; exact TIL and August 1997 Apple Facts also distinguish 0.25 mm aperture-grille pitch. Analogue CRT has no fixed native pixel matrix.)
Pixel pitch: Maker 0.25 mm aperture-grille pitch and 0.26 mm stripe pitch, retained as distinct published descriptions
Supported signal modes: Current maker support and Service Source list 640 × 480 at 60 or 66.67 Hz, 800 × 600 at 60.31 or 75 Hz, 832 × 624 at 74.55 Hz, 1024 × 768 at 60 or 74.93 Hz, 1152 × 870 at 75 Hz and 1280 × 1024 at 60 or 75.03 Hz. August 1997 Apple Facts additionally lists 1280 × 960; maximum supported format depends on the computer. These are supported analogue signals, not native resolution or native refresh.
Screen coating: Maker antistatic and antiglare surface treatment; launch press release describes antireflection coating
Calibration: Apple DigitalColor self-calibration against factory measurements compensates for CRT phosphor ageing and ambient lighting; ColorSync profiles support colour matching between devices. Maker variable white point 4100–9300 K. No unpublished headline brightness inferred.

Video inputs: DA-15
USB-C charging: None
Speakers: No
Other connections: Attached video cable with Macintosh DA-15 connector; supplied PC VGA mini-adapter. Attached ADB uplink and two ADB pass-through peripheral ports. The PC adapter does not add a second physical monitor video input. No integrated audio; speaker and microphone specifications apply only to the distinct 750AV.

Stand adjusts: Tilt, swivel
Weight with stand: 22.5 kg
Tilt: Included tilt-and-swivel base; numerical range unpublished
Swivel: Included tilt-and-swivel base; numerical range unpublished
Size with stand: Current support gives 16.8 × 16.2 × 17.6 inches (height × width × depth); August 1997 Apple Facts and exact TIL pair these with 42.7 × 41.1 × 45.2 cm. Service Source instead publishes 425 × 410 × 455 mm and a differing inch set. Later May 1998 brochure gives 44.7 cm depth. Maker dimensional differences retained.
Weight detail: Service Source publishes 22.5 kg (50 lb). Current support gives 49 lb; August 1997 Apple Facts pairs 49 lb with 22.0 kg, while exact TIL and May 1998 brochure pair it with 23 kg. Maker differences retained without converting pounds or inventing a hardware revision.
Controls: Front power, brightness, contrast and three on-screen control buttons; further size, centring, convergence, rotation, pincushion and white-point controls through AppleVision software or PC on-screen controls. Automatic degauss at power-up.

Power use: Current support and Service Source give 130 W maximum; exact TIL and May 1998 brochure instead state 125 W maximum and less than 60 W standby. Exact TIL gives 0 W computer energy-saver mode, while brochure gives less than 5 W; conflicting maker claims retained.
Power supply: Current support and Service Source specify regional 100–120 or 220–240 V AC, 50–60 Hz; exact TIL and May 1998 brochure instead give 90–264 V AC, 47–63 Hz. Mains frequency is not display refresh.
Software: Mac OS 7.1 or later with compatible 68040 or PowerPC hardware for launch AppleVision functions; later ColorSync brochure requires Mac OS 7.5 or later. Service Source explicitly says the November 1997 ColorSync rename was the only product change, so no duplicate rename entry is created; later TCO 95 plastics are qualified separately. Maker 5 August 1997 press release, reproduced in October Mini'app'les, states immediate availability in most countries. Apple Facts explicitly identifies this as replacing AppleVision 1710. Exact front photograph is Apple's launch-era 750 illustration.
Certifications: Original launch TCO 92, MPR II, EPA Energy Star and VESA DPMS. Service Source identifies TCO 95 plastics from January 1998 for the non-AV ColorSync model only, with certification determined by the rear housing marking; later certification is not assigned to every launch unit.
