Ask HN: What 4K monitor for the new Mac Mini would you recommend?

2 points by pvitiello 7y ago ↗ HN

Hey there, I was thinking to replace my MacBook Pro 2012 with a Mac Mini., so I would need a bigger external monitor so here’s the big question: what >24’’ and >4K monitor would you buy?

It seems that Apple recommends LG monitors but the UltraFine 5K is quite expensive. Are there cheaper but good alternative products at the moment?

According to this post (https://bjango.com/articles/macexternaldisplays/) it seems that a Dell UP2715K could be a good alternative to LG, but it seems that it is not available anymore for sell.

Thank you in advance for your precious advices!

Very happy with 2x LG 27MU67-B (there seems to be a slightly new model out: LG 27UD68P-B). Those are 27", 4k. I do programming, very little design, no gaming.

With macMini you probably want external speakers as well, the internal sound is no match to a macBook.
