Well, since the awaited new Studio Display still sucks and is expensive af, what alternatives do you recommend?
I just bought 2 Dell S2725QC (27" 4K 120Hz USB-C) monitors and they've been great. It the best budget friendly 4K monitor for Mac IMO. If you have the budget for it check out these 5K options: BenQ PD2730S 27" 5K or ASUS ProArt Display 27” 5K

MA270S Available in the EU
The BenQ is glossy, has a better static contrast ratio, Thunderbolt hub, more USB ports, is fanless (the LG might have a fan?), less ugly design, probably better colour calibration, and has better Mac integration. So if your focus is productivity, photo editing, and maybe some strategy games then I

How much did your external display actually change things? Asking before I make a mistake I can't return
Tbh I haven't seen the BenQ MA270S!The Nano Matte Panel seems better, so yeah I would prefer the BenQ. That said, BenQ is like 25-30% more expensive (in my country), that is, probably, the reason it gets more attention. About the research: My wife need the best color accuracy + grey scale. Displays

What is the best monitor for Mac mini M4 as of 2026?
This is the correct answer if you want the best Mac experience. Asus makes a 5k monitor Asus proart has a 5k monitor for about $700 though there are some complaints about Mac compatibility and this is a display port over 10Gb usb-c gig so it's not going to be a good hub, just a decent display. Also

So there are no GLOSSY 5K@120 Hz option if I don't wanna spend 3K on the ASD XDR ?
I’m a bit of a giant so big arms + old eyes = desk depth :) I say go for it then. Only other interesting monitor to check is the new BenQ MA270S. Only TB4 and 70hz but is glossy 5k and a third of the price!

Koje monitore koristite za programiranje?
Isprobao nekoliko ultravide i ne pasu mi nikako. Godinama sam radio isto kao ti 2x24 1080p. Sada sam presao na 2x27 5k Benq PD2730S. Mogu reci da je to savrseno. 32 mi je vec veliki i smeta. 5k sam uzeo jer imam mac i za njega je to preporucena rezilucija (identicna kao 27 apple studio display) a i

Apple made External Monitors worse, then sold us retina displays
The BenQ is $600 cheaper, yes. But doesn't have a built-in webcam, Thunderbolt 5, Good Speakers/Mic and a premium finish. When you calculate what you're getting for the price, both ways, it becomes great value. Having said that, MA270S is a great monitor with a great price. I would pick that over th
