Is there a monitor with high PPI?

You want a 32” (or smaller) 6K monitor, a 27” (or smaller) 5K monitor, or a 24” (or smaller) 4K monitor to get Retina-level PPI. I have the Dell 3224KB, the ViewSonic VP2788-5K, and the espresso 17. Having three Retina-level displays is fantastic.

Release date for the Asus Proart PA32QCV 6K display

Kinda in the same boat. Bought the ViewSonic VP2788-5k, and it has a flaw on the screen. I'm going to send it back, it's only 10 days old.

4k 27 feels too small. Would 5k 27 feel too small as well?

I have a viewSonic 5k 27" and it's way clearer than what you're seeing 4k. I looked at 4k displays but was so disappointed in the visual experience. 5k displays are pricey.

Best alternative to the Studio Display?

I wanted Retina-level resolution on my displays, but can’t afford multiple Apple displays, so I have a Dell U3234KB (32” 6K), a ViewSonic VP2788-5K (27” 5K), and an espresso 17 Pro (17” 4K), and I am very happy with them.

Short review - Philips Brilliance 27E3U7903 (Spoiler: not good).

I've been using the view sonic VP2788-5k and it has worked well although it isn't glossy.
