Hello guys, I bought a m1 mini and I'm looking for a monitor to complete the setup.
I'm looking at used options, and I was in doubt between the Thunderbolt Display (in the box, conserved and already comes with the TB2-TB3 adapter) and the LG Ultrafine 21.5 4K (2017 model, without a box, but also well conserved).
What do you think?
Surely the Ultrafine should be sharper and with superior color reproduction.
But would that make up for the ugly design and small size compared to the beautiful big 27" TB?

Any day of the week IMO. Text rendering is awful on macOS on low-ppi/low-resolution monitors such as the TBD.
