Very high brightness monitor - which one?

[Combat squirrel]

Hey all, looking for an extremely bright monitor to attach to a MacBook Pro for my friend to use for office work - she is working in a conservatory so wants a very bright one to see easily in daylight - whats the best one for sensible money? Screen size doesn’t really matter, anything 24 - 30 inch is fine.

Anyone?

Avoid a gloss screen go for matte.

Aorus FV43U can get pretty bright even on SDR where other monitors lag behind.

Thanks all, hmmm I’ll have a think, any 4k monitors that go silly bright? I.e. more suited to office work? Colours arn’t too much of an issue.

Yes there is, but you'll pay silly price for silly brightness

* Asus ROG Swift PG32UQX

This monitor can sustain over 1200nits of brightness on a 100% full white screen which is still much higher than anything else so far and it is 4 times brighter than most monitors. But it costs around 3000 pounds

If you need something much cheaper, the 2nd brightest 4k monitor I know of is luckily much cheaper

* Cooler Master GP27U, this 700 pound monitor is able to sustain over 600 nits at 100% full screen making it twice as bright as most monitors on the market. It's only half as bright as the Asus but it's it's also 75% cheaper and as mentioned at 600 nits it's much brighter than most monitors (the vast majority of monitors are between 250 and 350 nits)

You're fighting against the laws of physics using a monitor in a conservatory.

The best way to cope with it, is to look at the conservatory itself.
Roof blinds and side blinds.. They don't nesesarily need to be heavy duty.. Light weight semi opaque blinds will probably work well.
