Are there any glossy 4k displays in existence or coming out in the near future? Why on earth doesn't every monitor maker offer glossy as an option?! Anti-glare looks like viewing your display through frosted glass, I really hate it, it's the main reason I have been sticking with Apple displays. I know Spectrum makes one but it's pricey if you don't need the high refresh rate (which I don't), and I hear iffy things about the company.

I've been looking at all kinds of monitors the the only one I've found (not to say there aren't others) is the Spectrum Eve 4k. Only problem is lead time is huge I guess and customer service is questionable (just from reading forums, no 1st hand exp).


The only 5k monitors that you can buy new right now (again that I know of) are the ASD and the LG.

This is the best 4K 27 inch monitor in the market. Their recent offering for a glossy version makes it even better.

I would not buy the stand. minimal bezels, No branding in front, great hub, 144Hz, 4K, gloss, IPS. ASD still superior but you have to pay $800 more…
