    I’m on the lookout for a 4k monitor size 28”-32”.

    Any recommendations or good bargains about?

    Budget = 200-300 €


    I'll be using with a new M1 Mac Mini and it'll be getting 12+ hours/day use for email/PowerPoint/writing/Zoom etc. No huge content creation (YouTube etc) and no photo/video editing.

    This one has good reviews in the "budget" section. Here's a review. I think the price dipped under 200 stg a couple of months ago, so keep an eye on it come BlackFriday/CyberMonday.

    If you search on YT, make sure you watch videos about the TN panel, which this one is using.


    For a slightly bigger budget, this would be great for a Mac.

    Both of those are 27/28" ... would you not go for a 32"?


    Also the Dell is 2K (as opposed to 4K) ... why is this better?


    Apologies for the dumb questions!!

    Sorry, meant to recommend this Dell. I thought I found a cheaper price on Amazon, but it was the wrong model.

    This one has USB-C connectivity, which works well with Macs, particularly MacBooks: just one cable and the monitor acts as your docking station.
