Video Monitor for Mac Studio
I'm currently researching moving to the new Mac Studio. I like using duel 27" monitors especially with a 5K iMac. That said, I feel two of the new Apple Studio Displays would be overkill.
I am looking for suggestions on options that provide both resolution and real estate. Thank you |

Re: Video Monitor for Mac Studio
Probably lots of opinions on this. I just went to a Mac Studio from a 27” iMac Retina, 5k. I bought an LG 27” Ultrafine and am quite happy with it. The adjustable stand works really well with the 2 layer work area.

Re: Video Monitor for Mac Studio
The only thing I would warn about is that, depending upon your age, very high resolution monitors aren't always what you need.
I spent ages (and plenty of cash) finding a Mac to drive my 49" 32:9 monitor, at 5120x1440, only to discover that I can't really see it at that resolution, and instead I use 3840x1080. I could have saved money on the monitor and the Mac if I'd worked that out first. [Two x 27" QHD monitors is the same as my one 49"] Dominic

Re: Video Monitor for Mac Studio
You can always set the scale of a 4K/5K to a larger size in system preferences- that will make everything bigger.
I have a Dell and an LG monitor (both 31”) that look fantastic. The LG has been temperament but the Dell is solid. |
