IMO this is the Best Value monitor for Mac Dell S2725QC (27" 4K 120Hz with USB-C) 5K is the best resolution for Mac but it comes at a high cost: Apple Studio Display BenQ PD2730S 27" 5K ASUS ProArt Display 27” 5K

Actually loving the new standard Studio Display?

Benq has two 27 inch 5k monitors, matte (professional PD2730s series) and glossy (M something, do not remember exact name), both quite pricey tho. Both (supposedly) have great uniformity. Did you consider them?

What 27” 5K to wait for?

But it looks a bit cheap. I own multiple BenQ displays. My oldest (PD2500Q from 2017) has outlived multiple PCs. It's still hooked up, just as a secondary instead of the primary that it used to be. Yes, it's in a plastic shell and it has a bezel, about the same size as the MA270S, but that's the sac

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

BenQ MA270S first impressions

Owning myself the BenQ PD2730S, the stand on it is really good and sturdy with barely any wobble, where my previous Dell monitors were dancing all over the place just by supporting my wrists on the desk and typing. So unless the stand in this model is worse, I personally don’t think the stand is uns

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

Which 5k monitor to buy?

I am looking at the Benq PD2730S. I definitely want a matte one, I cannot stand the reflections. Will use it for everyday work, photo editing and occasional video editing.

What's considered the best 5K monitor for mac in your opinion? Or what do you use+recommend?

I recently purchased Benq PD2730s. Much superior in color representation to my previous LG ultrafine 5K monitor.

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
