      I recommend the BenQ P2700U for its excellent color accuracy. Photos on the iPad or iPhone and this monitor all show the same color. It is promoted by BenQ specifically for photographers. It has HDR, HDMI, DP, Mini-DP (both in and out), and a KVM-Switch for two PCs, although the latter is a little inconvenient to use: USB and Video Input must be selected independently. It has an USB hub with three USB 3.0 ports.

    For the past 2 years I had constant overheating issues with my MacBook Pro 16 (2019). I have it connected to 32" 4K display and set to the 2nd last scaling option (3360x1890). Only now when I checked in the system report do I see that all this time I've actually been working with an almost a 7K resolution (6.7K). In fairness, when I work I don't have any issues. Only when I use parsec to connect to my Window PC (parsec screen set to 1080p) and play games, then I get extreme thermal throttling after 10 minutes. My mouse starts lagging with a 3 second delay even when switching tabs back to macOS. I have to point a desk fan directly to the back of the MacBook just for it not to overheat. Now when I set my resolution to native 4K and use parsec.... not a single issue. Who would have thought that setting the scaling to lower than 4k was actually doubling the internal screen resolution. I had no idea that my system was working with an almost 7k resolution under the hood for the past 2 years. FML. Thank you so much for this video.

    @tuntitommosille ปีที่แล้ว +33

    I'm running a 32" 4k screen at native resolution (no scaling). It's similar to using the "More space" option on the MacBook in-built retina display. Initially it looked a bit small, but I quickly got used to it and now it doesn't bother me at all. I've also used a 27" 4k screen with scaling (Looks like 1440p), which still looked good, although obviously you lose some sharpness and screen real estate. Previously I had a 27" 1440p screen, which felt alright at the time, but once you've tried a 4k screen there's no going back to native 1440p.

      Totally with you. I am using 2x 32” at their native 4k resolution. Size is just fine, not too small. I just love the amount of screen real estate it gives. These 2 screens give me the same screen real-estate as 8 1080p monitors, totally fabulous. I did try native 4k on 27” and 28” monitors too, but at those screen sizes I agree, it is too small for me and I would need to scale, but at 32” it works well, and man, that screen real-estate, just loving it. 👍😀

  • @ReginaldoKono

    Well explained, now I understand better. Thanks! For me, when working on spreadsheets, based on your demo, I prefer 1080 resolution for a 4K monitor, where I will see less content, but at least I will clearly see the larger size numbers. I thought 5K monitors were the only option for Macs these days, but now I understand that it all depends on the power of your machine. In my case, I use a MacBook Pro m3 Pro and I expect it to provide the necessary power. Plus, I'll finally be able to justify the expensive M3 PRO chip I paid for.

    I've been looking for exactly this video. There are many "mac scaling issues" videos on youtube, but none which make such a good comparison or show so many examples of what the different scaling options look like in practice. Thank you very much for that!
    I was thinking of buying an LG 5k monitor which is 27" (but not as ridiculously overpriced as the one from Apple) because I was afraid of the scaling not working out well on anything that is not 5k. But after watching your video, I decided to buy a 4k 32" monitor from BenQ which costs the same but has so many more useful features and ports (and actually looks a lot better too). I have a M2 Max chip with maximum GPU cores, so any performance issues should be negligible...but I wanted to see what it will actually look like. Thank you for helping me with this choice 🙂

    Honestly I use the 1692 setting on my 4k 32 inch monitor and its plenty sharp and solid for me. Text looks much better and I have more space than a native 1440p monitor.
    Also I dont think using native 4k is truly out of the question. If you work close to the monitor and are comfortable using hotkeys to adjust scaling for websites and text you can make it work. That is too much effort for some people but some people prioritize that clarity and screen space.
    This is such a contentious topic and its hard to help people make a choice because so many people are throwing out their own personal preferences as the truth. Its hard to make a choice unless you see them in person but I highly recommend people not listen to all the people complaining about 4k on mac and give it a try first. I am 100% sure and happy with my choice.

    The performance issues are actually not a concern at all. Apple adds that message for legal reasons since the system is working slightly harder. For most modern systems however it’s less than a 1% performance change when others have actually tested it. Some really old systems might see small hit but that should be very rare.
    Keep in mind Apple by default uses scaling now on their laptops and they still perform perfectly.
    I have two 32” 4K displays and both are run at 3000 (6000) retina wide scaled mode which is the optimal DPI for that size and they work exceptionally.

    Great explanation, but not the results I was hoping for. I've been using a 4k monitor scaled at 1440p, and everything works great, except Photoshop. For whatever reason Photoshop doesn't scale, so since the actual resolution is scaled to 5k (as you explained), Photoshop displays at 5k, or at least the resolution of the image does. I've never understood why an image that had a greater resolution than my monitor would be smaller at 100%, but this appears to be why. I was hoping maybe switching to a 1440p monitor would be the answer since I'd be at it's native resolution, but you've pointed out that might not be the way to go.
    That said, I realize if I simply view an image at 150% rather than 100%, I'll get the correct view, and it's still the same image being displayed over the same amount of pixels I would at 4k.

Thank you very much..

    Great video, thank you! What about the refresh rate? Many of these 1440p displays can go up to 120 Hz or even passed that. But most of the 4k screens are capped at 60 Hz. Even if the 4k display (scaled to effective 1440p) is sharper, the smoothness of the 120 Hz of the native 1440p display might make up for that depending on personal preference.

    • @NilsonCreative

      That’s a good point! Refresh rate can be another factor to determine which monitor is the best for your needs.

    Great video, of the ones I've seen on this thema I think it's the best. However, I still can't find a solution, so I would like to ask your opinion: I am an architect and I work with ArchiCAD, lumion/Twinmotion (Rendering) and little Photoshop. I would like a screen with good resolution but most of all efficient. Leaving aside 5k (too expensive) can 2k be a good idea? or better to opt for 4k? (I work with apple system)
    Thank you in advance and regards

    • @NilsonCreative
      @NilsonCreative  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      If you have a powerful computer then I recommend 4K, otherwise go with 1440p. The only downside of 1440p compared to 4K is the sharpness but if you never used 4K before, then 1440p should not be a problem for you.

  • @gerald1964

    My testing shows a less than desired sharpness when using scaled resolution on a 4K monitor in comparison to running at native resolution or half of native resolution, i.e., 1920x1080 on a 4K (3840x2160) monitor. However, at 1920x1080, everything on the screen appears too large on a 27 inch or larger monitor. Utilizing a 2K monitor may be the best bet for the Mac if it is desired to use a 27 inch monitor and cost is a consideration. I use the 24 inch LG Ultrafine 4K monitor as a second monitor operating at 1920x1080. Text is as sharp as the text that appears on my 27 inch 2019 iMac and font and window size are very reasonable in comparison to what would appear on a 27 inch monitor operating at the same resolution. Bottom line: Macs are made for 5K monitors when the monitor size is 27 inches. Everything else is a compromise.

    Thanks for explaining.
    I've been looking for a solution myself since purchasing the M2 Mac Mini last month.
    I have a Q32QC Gigabyte monitor (1440p, VA). Everything seems to be ok, videos, photos, icons, etc.
    But the text in the browser, in Excel, Word, basically everywhere, is so terrible that I can no longer control myself.
    And the view could be bright.
    Out of desperation, I even thought about Apple Display, but I prefer 32 and the price is killing me.
    To sum up, what monitor 32 will not destroy my eyesight in fonts? Working on MS Office, www and that's it.

    • @NilsonCreative
      @NilsonCreative  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

I'd use the second screen to 'place' windows etc that I need to refer to but would obviously use the 4K as the primary screen. Thank you.

    The concern about performance hit when using scaled resolution is valid when you are using Intel hardware. But it's totally fine when you are using Apple Silicon-based machine (except the lowest M1, you might see some occasional hiccup with that)

      I saw dgeradation of performance with scaling while working with 3d - blender. Animation playback get performance hit. And this was with macbook screen - more space vs default. It is niche and maybe with more high end config and newest blender version and metal updates degradation is minimal, but it’s still there it logical - scaling up and then down is extra work and if it’s real time 3d rendering it’s not easy task too. Myself use 1440p 25 and 27 screens (have couple of workspaces) and my next / dream is 40 inch 4k screen.

    32" is a fairly "blocky" at 1440p.
    32" is a fairly "squinty" at 4k.
    32" isn't ideal for either. I think you want 27-28 inch for 1440p ~or~ 38-40 inch at 4k (2160p).
