Bought a Dell U3219Q 32” 4K, today arrived! wub.gif

Before..Dell U2515H 25” 2K as main monitor, LG 27” 4K as 2nd monitor

Retire the 27” LG, hard to calibrate and dim af compared to Dell monitors

Recalibrating both display (using the MacBook display as reference and my eyeballs)

After..32” 4K as main, 25” 2K as 2nd monitor

Some notes:

32” 4K running on native resolution without scaling is a bit tiny on macOS (arm length from monitor)..but plenty of screen estate for multitasking
IMO it looks like sitting in front of a TV at arm length

TB3 -> displayport >>>>> USB-C -> displayport
Mac mini 2018 doesn’t play nice thru USB-C
MBP M1 works fine via USB-C, but later I noticed that I can see the screen slightly flickering (TB3->DP no problem)

Monitor KVM is great, can switch between the Mini and MBP easily

Sekian, my home office upgrade

i used to look at 4 monitors too for forex trading before i learned AI and programming. Now just automate my trading. 32k dell is 4.7k. really ex. I have a 32" 2560x1440 only 1.2k and 43" 4k only 2.5k . but yours is infinity screen. but response time 5ms not good for gaming. Not sure but I thought I have seen 4k 32" with response time 1-2 ms. think its the sg company monitor

32" 1440p so pixelated no? the 25" 1440p is perfect IMO. how's the 43" on 4K from arm length? what's the scaling?

ah, I don't game, just work stuff and basic usage, so the extra response time isn't too important. mainly as long it's IPS, I'm happy

yes, ideally should set to 3360x1890 HiDPI scaling
but at the moment I want to test whether I can work with the 100% scaling laugh.gif

yes, my favourite monitor after so many years (6 years+ monitor)..
during COVID-19 2020, I went back to MY and forgot to turn off my monitor, end up I stuck in MY one year, my monitor 24/7 on max brightness for one year until I went back to JP laugh.gif
luckily the monitor still fine till today, just need to recalibrate the color a little
