Hi all. Let me keep it short. I am looking for a 21.5" monitor (who has them nowadays, I know...) to pair with my aging, yet still very much functional M1 mini. I plan to use it in a living room for web browsing, emailing, viewing digitized old family photos, and all other light tasks. I'd appreciate your recommendations. Thank you in advance!

I have one of the LG UltraFine 22MD4KAB's (works great with Mini, Studio and Pro M3 MBP) that is used daily. It is the best 21.5" display ever made for Thunderbolt-compatible Mac's imo

They can be had for ~$200 or so on eBay.

@edubfromktown Is the 22MD4KAB's screen quite reflective? Looking at pictures I've seen on Facebook, and eBay, I get the impression the screen is quite reflective.

Yes it does... It is in low light where I use it. Only notice the reflectivity when it is turned off.

The PPI this aging gem puts out is exceptionally sharp and ideal for some of the silly that things I do on a semi-frequent basis. I also use an AOC U2790VQ 4K (display port, attached via Caldigit TS3+) that has far less glare and was ~$200 when I purchased it new ~4 years ago.
