DisplayPort (or Mini DisplayPort) input for older Macs and USB-C video for newer ones.

Reasonably high pixel density for crisp text.

At least 4K native resolution (meaning approximately 4000 horizontal pixels).

Here’s what I, and I assume most Mac users, want in a monitor: One false step, and boom, you’ve got a worthless monitor. Or you could buy a monitor that advertises USB-C connectivity only to find that the USB-C port works only for power and accessory connections, not video. Some have only HDMI ports (that’s a TV, not a monitor), and HDMI is chock full of gotchas: you could buy a 1440p monitor and, thanks to weird HDMI limitations, be stuck at a blurry 1080p resolution. Many displays still feature hoary VGA ports that first appeared in 1987.

Even if you find a sharp enough monitor, you may have trouble connecting it to your Mac. The market is full of 27-inch and larger screens that support only 1080p resolution and a pixel density of around 100 pixels per inch, about half of any Retina display you’re used to. Alas, those monitors are costly and, in my opinion, underwhelming apart from their pixel density.īuying a monitor is like navigating a minefield. Instead, Apple endorses the $700 24-inch LG UltraFine 4K Display and the $1300 27-inch LG UltraFine 5K Display by virtue of selling them-and them alone-in the online Apple store. Despite a long history of producing quality screens like the 27-inch Thunderbolt Display, Apple no longer makes monitors other than the insanely priced $5000 Pro XDR Display. If you’re used to the coherence of the Apple cocoon, the PC monitor market is a strange and frightening place.
