Hey, may I ask about Matte finish on your Benq monitor? And how fast the KVM switch is?
Also one more question, if you set the brightness to 0% on these monitors, which one is darker? I assume they are about the same lowest brightness?
I went ahead and ordered one from B&H Photo. It arrived in a couple days. It looks great. I''ve pretty much settled on using it in the mode that looks like 2560x1440. "3008x1692" is quite usable but a little small with my eyes, I'll probably try using it, but TBH I'm still figuring out how to best use such a large single display. I've got Moom, but I think what I really need is something optimized for using the display in 1/3rds, rather than halves.
I really don't understand what you're talking about. I've been using it with Mac mini M1 one year and don't see any PWN effect. Of course, besides those known issues with flickering in some combinations of cables and connections. Now it is connected with USB-C > DP adaptor cable and works like a charm.
According to rtings, PWM>1000Hz = flicker free. That's nonsense. There are people who can't use 14"/16" MBPs with PWM at 14880Hz or even higher. The fact it's not noticable by naked eye doesn't mean there are no negative effects.
How can I help? 🤦🏻♂️ I suppose you still use candles and open fire at home.
PD2725U this one is 400 nits
not sure, but it probably uses the same panel as the other 2, with roughly the same specs, it comes out cheaper than the BenQ a bit more expensive than the Dell for me in Australia, it would definitely be a contender, wish it didn't have the Asus logo!
I finally decided to buy the U3223QE. It's $729 right now on Amazon. Coming from a P2715Q that has served me well for seven years. Looking forward to the additional screen real estate and the more modern I/O. Now I just hope I'll receive a current revision without any major flaws. Fingers crossed!That is the exact upgrade path I had, more than a year ago. The 32" is now my primary, and the 27" is a secondary in another room. Good choce, and good luck!I just wanted to say thank you to everyone adding so much valuable information and insight in this thread. I read through all 52 pages
Thank you! I thought I remembered someone mentioning the P2715Q
I'm just debating right now if I want to keep the old one around and try a two monitor setup for the first time. Seems overkill for my use case. But at the same time I feel almost bad for my trusty old Dell that has worked so flawlessly … On the other hand: If I donate it to Goodwill, someone else might still get a few years out of it I'm using a Dell 27" 4K monitor right now. It is sharper than my eyes. My glasses seem to be the weak link in the chain. But even with my nose close to the screen, the text is dead sharp. This is on a Mac Mini M2-Pro.
