Apple rolls out new Thunderbolt 5 cable alongside M4 Pro Mac mini

Apple doesn't offer a display (or anything else on their store) that utilises Thunderbolt 5 yet; both the Studio Display and the current Pro Display XDR use Thunderbolt 3.

Does this mean that they'll be announcing a new display? Perhaps a new Pro Display XDR — which could explain the removal of the '8K120' note from the new iMacs.

In time yes it does mean that Apple can now go to a 120 Hz monitor with thunderbolt five (one connection not two), but there is a catch with all the people out there on all the web forums and youtube complaining about a 5K 27 inch Apple studio monitor cost that Apple currently offers, to drive a new 5K 120 Hz monitor requires double the information down the cable, a 120 Hz 27” monitor means everything will cost more above 4K you get nothing for free. which is one of the reasons why most of the PC world is basically stuck at 4K 120 Hz. With thunderbolt five Apple can now move ahead with their curated monitors but it won’t be cheap. 

Those that have experience with the old 30” Apple Cinema Display are more familiar with the special two connection/video card setup that Apple had at that time. (Before 2014?). It was about as good as you were gonna get at that time and many are still working if you can find them.
