Mac Mini M2
I have 2013 iMac. I am thinking going to Mac Mini. What monitor other than LG 4K that Apples sell would you suggest. The LG 4K at Apple is $699. Yes I am looking for same quality but at lower price.

Look at LG's other offerings. You can get 4K 27" displays for less money.
I have an LG 27UP600 and it works great. In their numbering scheme:
The first two numbers are display size
The second letter is display "type":
G or Q - 2K or QHD
U - 4K or UHD
M - 1080 of FHD
W - wide screen
The second letter is the year of initial release (LG still makes some of their older models) and I believe "Q" is now the current model
The last three numbers indicate feature level . Generally 600 is base, 650 adds a few things, and 850 has all the bells and whistles.

never had a monitor not work both as second monitor for imacs nor as monitors for mac minis
currently i have my 2012 mac mini connected to an asus 27" using a thunderbolt to dvi and to a very old 17" samsung using a hdmi to dvi
used dell 24" too in the past
+1 for LG recommendation. My LG 32UN800-B UltraFine 4K with Ergo stand is still selling for $699USD, but there are same size displays or smaller for less money at https://www.lg.com/us/4k-monitors .
My Thanks to all for the input.
Just to add, do some shopping around as the LG displays will occasionally get some good discounts.
