Hi all, thanks to my new MB Pro 16 arrival, I was looking into using it as a 2nd monitor alas... in desperate need for a reasonably priced primary monitor.
As I'd like to keep cables to a reasonably low, I am looking into a USB-C as an option. I checked the Dell site for the P2720DC which appears to deliver 65W on USB-C. Would that suffice to power my MBP 16 (not fuzzed about charging as it is my desktop replacement and will be kept on (sleeping during nite) throughout the week? Workwise I'm not doing anything fancy, just loads of chrome tabs open (10-20) doing an IT office job, no editing, coding, or PS stuff.

Would this work and are there other Monitor suggestions in that price range? Thought about 27" instead of 32" as this could be a wee bit too dominating sitting roughly 80cm away from the screen.

Also hoping for WWDC'20 to finally announce the arrival for a dark coloured magic keyboard w/o numericals... well that's a different wish list..
