ASUS ProArt Display 27” 5K HDR Professional Monitor (PA27JCV) - it's less expensive and very color accurate and beautiful. It also has a matte texture that keeps fonts crisp. Highly recommend. I just got a new m4 Mac mini also and this was what I ended up with and I couldn't be happier.

The XDR display is 120Hz. There’s a reason I said 'no matter how you use the monitor.' While it’s easy to find a monitor with factory-calibrated sRGB or Display P3 modes, those are usually calibrated for one specific brightness level only, so you generally don't want to use the sRGB mode within wide

The Thunderbolt issue is discussed here. You could however connect two monitors with one using USB-C and the other using DP to USB-C (see here). The 5K ASUS ProArt PA27JCV has a LuxPixel matte coating which looks very similar to Apple’s nano-texture. I felt the LuxPixel affected the whites too much

If you’re not in a rush, you might as well wait at least 5 to 6 months. Current 5K displays (that I know of): ASUS ProArt PA27JCV (IPS: 5K 60Hz, $598.54) strong matte coating (similar to Apple’s nano-texture) which to my eyes diminishes the sharpness of text. clean, minimal design (it has character

Check out the Asus ProArt PA27JCV, a 5K HDR panel with a pixel density of 218 ppi, HDMI 2.1 and USB-C, and excellent color calibration. For €700. To say that text is sharp on a 4K screen would be a lie; this resolution isn't native on Macs, unlike 5K.

Who all is selling 5K, 600-nit full-screen brightness monitors with excellent speakers, built-in webcam, Thunderbolt/USB-C hub with 96W PD, 100% sRGB coverage, and ~90% Adobe RGB coverage for significantly less than $1499? Build quality and warranty/service is also a concern here. There are other 5K

The highlights in any HDR video you encounter are just going to be mindblowing if you haven't seen true 1000 nits+ monitor. The PG27UCDM I had was only able to do correct EOTF curve up to 400 nits but the XDR is accurate up to 2000 nits. That's the major difference. There are minor differences like

4K will be much more affordable, but the sharpness of 5K for desktop applications is really great. I have the XG27JCG. In Windows, I set the scaling to 150% for more real estate. UI is rather small but definitely readable because everything’s so sharp. According to my calculations at 175% the UI is

I had the smaller brother of the ProArt, the PA27JCV. I compared the coating with Apple’s nano-texture, and though the technology is different, in practice they were very similar. The color profiles using the onboard controls or the DisplayWidget software is very convenient. Blacks were very deep. I

Yeah that one is great. I have the gamer variant, the ASUS ROG Strix 5K XG27JCG (Strix 5K). Currently at €749, it is about the same price as when the PA27JCV (ProArt 5K) launched last year. The Strix 5K has up to 180Hz in 5K (currently macOS maxes out at 165 Hz, though). Gamut is a bit lower, but mo
