Best (non-apple) monitor?

For a reasonable price the LG 4K 27UP850-W. Best non gaming monitor for Mac IMO. Gives you all you need, even some stuff you don’t, and it is very good with Mac compatibility. Best option for any price (including against the ASD), ROG Swift 32” 4K OLED 240Hz. Also no matter what you do don’t buy any

Best “bang for your buck” monitor for M4?

LG 27” 4K monitor, 27up85n or older model 27up850, or 27-650 series. The 85 and 850 has USB-C with Power Delivery, but you don’t need it for you Mac Mini. Maybe for later on your MacBook? The screen is great, 163 PPI and at relative low cost. $300-400, used you can find it even around $200 Anyway, i

Looking to upgrade my setup for productivity + occasional Switch 2 gaming — monitor advice?

The Mac mini was never released with an M3. It went from the M2 to the M4. If you have the smaller newer version it’s the M4, the older design is the M2. Considering the monitor, 4K is a must on MacOS. Due to the lack of sub-pixel scaling you need to have enough ppi for your text to be crisp. 1080 i

Best Monitor - AUS region

I'm grabbing a 27"4k My selection so far: BenQ PD2706UBenQ MA270ULG 27UP850-WDell 27 Plus S2725QC I'm a designer as well so, like you, I need to care for colour accuracy and sharp details. None of 4ks will give it completely but adding the Better Display app reportedly solves the crispiness issue. A

Monitor Recommendation for Mac mini (M4)?

Under $450, you can get a 4K panel. You can't go wrong with LG UltraFine, Asus ProArt and Dell UltraSharp 4K IPS displays Newer models have a very good out of the box colour calibration. Some of the suggestions would be LG 27UQ850, Dell U2723QE both have an IPS Black panel by LG with a contrast rati

Monitor recommendations... Curved monitor?

For photo editing, a flat monitor is generally better than a curved one because curved screens can introduce slight distortions, making it harder to judge straight lines and compositions accurately. A 4K monitor is a great choice for high resolution and detail. For your budget here are some solid 4K

27” 4K monitor for MacBook Pro (coding 8–10h/day) – which one would you choose?

Be careful with LG 4k/5k monitors, some of them (especially the 4k Ultragears) have fans in them, but the 27UP850 should be fanless. Return if you have fan noises or coil whine (put your ear close to the backside of the monitor) Also check viewing angles, the 4k IPS ones aren't always great there: I

Help with a portable or cheap monitor that’s 2k-4k?

LG 27UP85 or the older one 27UP850. Both are 27 inch 4K matte screen. You can go for the 65/650 but that one have no Power Delivery. Rock solid screens! 💪🏼

Which monitor would you recommend for my Mac mini? I’d love to hear your experience with your own monitor setup.

The LG 27UP850 and newer 85 have Power Delivery. The 650 and newer 65 have not. So good for your Mac Mini

What's the best Monitor for MacBook Pro to get right now? Recommendation?

Go 4K with USB-C instead of HDMI, macOS just looks way better that way. The LG UltraFine 4K (27UP850) is a great value pick, and if you want something smoother the Gigabyte M32U is solid. I’d skip 1440p, scaling isn’t great.
