Did I take the wrong car??

If you do any kind of photo, video, or design work, the Studio Display is tough to beat in absolute terms. The ASUS ProArt is definitely far better value, but if you’ve got the budget for a Studio it’s an excellent product.

Using iPad Pro as a reference monitor for DaVinci Resolve — best connection method?

Absolutely Remote Monitor. But honestly, if you want a reasonably accurate clean feed, get an Eizo CS/Asus ProArt and a Decklink. That's not, what an iPad is.

I need help with choosing a new Monitor :)

Color "accuracy" only makes sense if you calibrate it locally and on a regular basis. I use an Asus ProArt PA27AC which I'm pretty happy with. I think it should tick all your boxes.

From iMac 27 to MacMini

Doesnt sound to me like you need a studio or mac mini pro based on the workload you presented. Since you have come from an imac, I would look at one of the 27" 5k displays from companies like LG or Asus ProArt.

Buy Studio Display now or wait for the new one in 26?

I would wait. If you need a 27inch 5K now you could grab the ASUS Pro Art for $799. The screen is great even if the build quality is a little cheap. Then when the new Studio Display comes out sell the Asus for at least of what you paid for it or use it as a secondary display.

What's the closest hardware alternative to a MacBook Pro?

Depends on your use case, if you need dedicated GPU, couple of the following won't apply. Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i or slim 9i. Lenovo Thinkpad Carbon X1 or x9 Asus ProArt Maybe Dell XPS or whatever it's called now. It's not bad but there are better options. Asus Flow z13 but know that Asus customer servic

Switched from a bulky i5-13600K tower to my first Mac ever for development. The desk feels so much cleaner, but I need monitor advice!

There's lots of affordable 5K 27" monitors available now. I'd look at the 27" 5K ASUS ProArt for something that's good and easy to get. Under $600. I just picked up the 6K 32" ProArt for ~$1050 and it's been amazing. The kuycon looks the best of the cheap ones (styles after the Studio Display/Pro Di

Upgrading from an M1 Pro with Asahi

It's only 13.3" instead of 14 (they also have bigger models in this same line), but the ASUS ProArt with the Ryzen AI processor and the RTX 4060 mobile is pretty decent. It can be a bit noisy (not much if compared qith other x86 machines, just if you compare it with M1 and alike)... but only if you

Thinking of Mac Studio/Studio Display: Wait till Black Friday?

Right. So, again, I don’t see much of a point in spending $1,600+ list for the Studio Display when there’s other options that give you a similar 5K experience for a lot less money right now. The ASUS ProArt 5K for example, is $850. Plastic build and no Thunderbolt or webcam, but similar image qualit

Non-Apple monitor suggestions?

An Asus ProArt PA279CRV. 99% P3, good stand, good ports, no external power supply, 3 year warranty (or if you get open box whatever is left after the original purchase). $400 on Amazon right now.
