Hey all, I'm on the hunt for a good Black Friday deal on a monitor for my new Macbook Air that's arriving this week. I don't game and would be using it primarily for amateur photo editing, so I'm hoping not to break the bank - target budget is ~$500. From what I've read 27" 4k with USB-C is the way to go for my use case - though there is one 32" that has caught my eye. My external monitor experience is limited to the cruddy 22" Dells I get at the office, so I'd really appreciate any input on the following:
Dell S2722QC for $380
LG 27UN850-W for $450
Slightly crazy option: Open-box 32" LG Ultrafine 32UL950-W for $715 at my local Best Buy.
I'd hang tight for Black Friday, but if that Ultrafine is as good a deal as it seems I wonder if I should snap it up. How much, if any, better would it be than the other two monitors for daily use? I am a little concerned about pixel density on a 32" since I'm using it for photos and it's more than I wanted to spend. Thanks much!
