Hey all, I have a Mac Studio ordered and I would also like to upgrade my monitor to go with it. I currently use an iMac 24” M1 on a vesa arm sitting above a Dell U4919DW monitor.

What I am trying to decide is what monitor to replace this setup? I enjoy the 49” Dell and the productivity space it provides but do find the resolution a bit limited at times and very noticeable nowadays compared to the screens on my 15” MacBook Air and the iMac. I also find that most of the time I prefer to have the screen split into 3 equal windows, with the main window of whatever app I am using on the center of the screen, with secondary windows on the left and right (i.e. I’m actually really mainly using the centre of this huge screen for working).

I am trying to decide if I go for the Apple Studio Display at 27” and enjoy the higher resolution on a smaller screen? Or do I go for something like the Samsung 57” Neo G9 for something similar to the Dell with a better resolution? I saw it in person today and it is a beautiful display and build. I have also been considering keeping the iMac and running it as a secondary monitor beside the Apple Studio Display.

Another thought is going for a 34” or 40" option? I haven’t enjoyed have the iMac above the monitor so I don’t think I need anything bigger height wise than the 27” or 57” options.

What would be your guys’ suggestions? Thanks so much in advance!
 
Use the iMac and an Apple Studio Display would be my vote. The higher resolution just makes text clearer, plus the sensors to automatically adjust screen brightness, both of those features will be welcomed by your eyes.
