Mac Mini M4 monitor advice

I'm looking at getting a new Mac mini and am a bit overwhelmed by all the monitor options. I’ve previously used iMacs and MacBooks, so haven’t really had to think about it. I’m trying to build on a budget of 3k max and am feeling like a mini will give me access to decent specs but I need to figure out what monitor to use.

I've seen a similar monitor to this one suggested, and was just wondering if it would be a good fit. It’s towards the top end of my budget so couldn’t really spend much more.

Thanks for any advice.

There are literally dozens of monitors on the market that will work for you. The LG you mention would work well, I think, but there are plenty of other options. It really depends on what size, resolution and color accuracy you're looking for. You might start on a review site such as Rtings and see what options might work for you. I just got a new M4 Mac mini with a Dell U2723QE 287" display and so far am quite satisfied with it, having come from a 5k 27" iMac, though it might be a bit above your budget (though not as much as the 5k LG).

Regards.

Most monitors will work but if you want the sharpness of your previous Macs then look at a 5K display like the LG 27" 5K which is < $1000 if your budget allows.
