Hello,
I am looking for a external monitor for my early 2015 Retina Macbook Pro 13. My old monitor does not offer any usable resolutions when I plug it in via the Mini DisplayPort, so does anyone know of a good monitor that is compatible resolution-wise with a Retina Macbook Pro?
Thank you,

It depends on
1. What is the major focus of your work
2. What is the budget you have

I don't need super high definition or anything- I'm a college student majoring in Computer Science. I would just like something that will cooperate with my Macbook, is not too expensive ($100-$200), and is between 20 inches and 27 inches.
I am using a 2 year old 22” LG analog (VGA) with my MBA getting the same aspect ratio as the MBA. Colors are okay and brightness is good. I wouldn’t want to use it as a professional photographer but it cost just over $100 at Amazon and does the job. I also have a 24” digital Samsung which is much nicer. It ran under $150. Pay attention to what interface it uses (HDMI, VGA etc) because you’ll also need the correct dongle for the computer.
Thank you! What are the model numbers of your displays?
