If you want a 27" 5K monitor, there aren't many choices. There's the 27" Apple 5K Studio Display, there's the 27" LG UltraFine Display, and there's the Samsung 27" S90PC ViewFinity 5K Smart Monitor.
If you add up the price of the Apple 5K monitor, a Magic Keyboard, and a Magic Mouse, the damage is close to what you would have paid for an entry-level 27" 5K Retina iMac that included a (non-reusable) 5K display, and the keyboard/mouse, and the computer.
Essentially a big price hike at a time when 4K monitors are flooding the market. If Apple is not careful, this could be a repeat of what happened when a flood of 27" 2560x1440 monitors left 30" 2560x1600 ones all but dead.
I just completed my test of the Dell 4K ultra sharp 32" monitor. It had good color but could not render 4K HD videos at the same high resolution as my LG 27" 5K without stuttering so I returned it. I'm afraid I got spoiled using a 27" 5k monitor and will never go lower again. My eyes appreciates that.
I'll probably just bite the bullet and get the Apple 5K 27" monitor. I already have both a magic mouse, track pad, cable etc., so that get the price down a bit, but nice I'm dropping a small fortune on the mac studio computer, I may as well go for the proverbial gusto and eat lettuce for a year or two.Thank you, and everyone, for your very helpful replies.
Just about any kind. I use a 5K LG 27". I will be testing out A Dell 4K Ultrasharp 32" to compare.
I guess what I’m really wondering is if it’s worth all the money for the Mac Studio monitor at $1600
