> 16" WUXGA IPS Anti-Glare Display

> $689.99

That computer has neither an OLED display nor a price of $600.

This has a WXUGA display, i.e. 1920x1200. It’s not comparable to the high DPI display on the MacBook Pro.
One quite nice display is the 2880 x 1800 16" OLED on the Samsung Galaxy Book series --- I kind of miss it when using my MacBook Pro.
Sure, Apple doesn’t have a monopoly on nice displays, but they’ll sell you a laptop with a high DPI display for $1000. It’s hard to get a laptop with a comparable display for much less. And if you save any money you’ll pay for it in performance and build quality.
What specifically isn't comparable?

Comparable. Things you can't compare between two laptop screens.
