Dell UltraSharp 40 Curved Thunderbolt Hub Monitor - U4025QW This is a really nice monitor 5k2k ultra wide that works perfectly with a Mac (M2 MacBook Pro here) and has things like 2.5G Ethernet and can daisy chain another display (I use that to connect my Apple Studio Display)

I have a 40” ultrawide dell u4025qw and it’s fantastic. You can easily have 2-3 excel windows open. I don’t think I’ve ever actually needed to have 1 excel window maximized. The monitor can also create multiple virtual monitors (so your computer sees your ultrawide as 2x monitors instead.

Got tired of waiting, scooped up an open box Dell U4025QW ultra-wide and been delighted by it. 5K, 120hz, speakers aren't on par with Studio Display but perfectly acceptable.

Comparison with dell u4025 qw, that’s surprising: “Despite this, text looks equally sharp on both because the ASUS has an aggressive matte coating that makes text and images look hazy”

Yep, same. I went through a few 49" ultrawides, then landed on a 38" Alienware. The extra vertical space made a huge difference. Now I'm on a Dell u4025qw ( 40" 5k2k) and it's pretty much the perfect monitor for me. I can't believe how much I love working on this thing.

I love my Dell U4025QW. Its predecessor and little brother. It’s surprisingly compatible with macOS too, the display brightness and audio Fn keys work with a little utility, which is unusual for PC monitors.

I have a DELL Ultra Sharp U4025 QW (40” monitor) hooked up to my loaded Mac Mini M4. The monitor is superior, being 5-6k, 120Hz, and 6 NITS in brightness. The other great part of the monitor is that it has a large built in hub in the bottom of it that allows you to connect many peripherals. Connecti

I mean, you left off the obvious option. The Mac Studio Display. But I chose the Dell u4025qw over it and don’t have any regrets. The text is sharp. I needed the built-in kvm, and 27-inches is pretty small these days. However, I bought my u4025qw before the asus 27-in 5k and 32-in 6k hit the market.

I can't say whether I trust TUV Rheinland and their Eye Comfort ratings. However, I have the Dell U4025QW monitor with a 5-star TUV Rheinland Eye Comfort rating , and it feels so much more comfortable for my eyes that the LG 39GX950B OLED monitor. I can feel my eyes tense up within minutes of using

Some monitors have an integrated USB dock and KVM switch, which can dramatically simplify a setup like this. I use a Dell UltraSharp U4025QW with both my work MacBook and my desktop PC (which dual-boots openSUSE Linux and Windows 11). The MacBook connects with a single Thunderbolt cable that carries
