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.

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.

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

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.

Monitor Mac Mini

I guarantee you are 1000% covered for photo editing in lightroom/photoshop with the base model if that was your concern. It edits 4k video flawlessly, so I think you'd have to be doing some really niche stuff to hit any walls. As for the monitor, I'm not sure about higher end models... but I did rea

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.

Can you recommend a 4k monitor for under $350

What video card do you have and what games are you playing? 4k can be pretty demanding depending on the games played. Asus XG27UCG and GIGABYTE M27UP have a dual mode for 1080p in case the game your playing doesn't run well at 4k. I used mostly Asus Pro Art model monitors and they been good. Have As
