So there are no GLOSSY 5K@120 Hz option if I don't wanna spend 3K on the ASD XDR ?

I used a nano texture 2022 ASD before and I now HATE every matte panel. 5K doesn't look sharp. But you did like the nano-texture (NT) on the ASD? I checked the default ASD and the NT one. I didn’t like the NT, because of the grain on the whites and that it diminishes the otherwise sharp 5K image. I

27” 5K monitor for Mac dev work (not gaming) under €1000. Does it exist?

If you like the nano-texture on the Studio Display, the ASUS ProArt PA27JCV is an excellent option. I got one for €660 (but returned it, because to me the coating was distracting). While the ASUS ROG Strix XG27JCG is a gaming monitor, I think it’s still a very good option. I prefer its controls: big

Best 6K matte alternative to Pro Display XDR for video editing/color grading in SDR?

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

Well, since the awaited new Studio Display still sucks and is expensive af, what alternatives do you recommend?

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

Help Me Decide Ultrawide vs Hi-Res

5k is fantastic with my Mac, but to be honest I don't notice the difference with 4k for anything but the UI elements. I have the Asus PA27JCV. Great colour, decent matte finish. Backlight bleed is acceptable. Connectivity options are lacking. I use Windows at work. Have a 32" 4k Samsung. It's fine.

Monitor for Mac mini m4

Love my asus proart 5k pa27jcv. It’s perfect for my setup. Terrible sound, incredible image quality, matte cover, a bit brighter than typical display. Type-C connection for iPad/MacBook, additional ports. Mostly perfect for work, but not that good for gaming

Asus PA27JCV 5K monitor - what are the best settings for mac os x?

I bought it in March 2025 (in one of the Polish local stores). I do research before it was available checking site like https://www.displayninja.com for incoming 5K panels and then waiting for 5K monitor with KVM (I need it to switch between two computers). Apple's studio doesn't have KVM. ASUS was

Kuycon G32P (31.5″ 6K 6144×3456 monitor) — video review by KevZ

ASUS has a 6K 31.5” model for around $1300, the PA32QCV, the big brother of the 5K 27” PA27JCV. Overall it’s a fantastic display (I tested the 5K one), but its LuxPixel coating is rather present. I compared it to Apple’s nano-texture tech, and in practice they produce a very similar super strong mat

Torn between ASUS ProArt PA27JCV and ASUS ROG Strix XG27JCG (5K) mixed Mac + Windows setup

I owned the PA27JCV. It’s an excellent display. The display has a LuxPixel matte coating which in practice is very similar to Apple’s nano-texture technology. Very effective against reflections. It really does make everything look like it’s printed. But I couldn’t get used to the grain of the LuxPix
