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

What 27” 5K to wait for?
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

Looking for monitor recommendations for mac studio (non-Apple displays)

Which is the best monitor worth buying for Mac Mini you've ever tried?
I think if you are going to buy one monitor, the Studio Display. All around good experience. My secondary monitor is the ASUS PA27JCV and this has good text quality. This one is in well under $1k. I had a 4k pro-Art and the text was unacceptable. Do not get 4k!

Is there a monitor with high PPI?
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.

Studio Display vs anything else?
Asus ProArt PA27JCV seems to be a good choice for a 27” 5K monitor. I’m also hesitating to buy a Studio Display because I also still use a Windows PC for gaming and I need a monitor with more than one input port. I’m afraid the new upcoming Studio Display will also have only one TB input. A drawback

Studio Display 2: The Latest Rumors About Apple's Next Monitor
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

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

Need help choosing 4k or 5k
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
