@Chancerubbage If it's anywhere near the Dell 6K's pricing it'll be amazing since this one isn’t super ugly haha

@christianselig It’s very likely to be the same panel as the XDR. Maybe different backlight tech.

TB5 might add the ability to chain two of them off a single port on the computer, but that doesn’t seem like a huge advantage right now. Nice for a new build, but definitely no reason to spend thousands of dollars switching.

@bob_zim Yeah the XDR is getting a little antiquated in the amount of dimming zones, would be cool if they improved that. And yeah not for switching, I meant as a second monitor :p

@christianselig Would take a second cable. The panels are surely hard to manufacture, so my bet on pricing is $3000. Expensive, but cheaper than the XDR. We’ll see soon enough.

@bob_zim Yeah that would be my guess too

@christianselig Do you really think is it better than your Pro Display XDR? Maybe the refresh rate is higher, but macOS support will be horrible. No brightness control, no volume control (if it has speakers) and most likely no proper HDR support.

@Typ0genius Oh god no, wouldn't replace my XDR, would be a second monitor (even then though that seems silly I rarely need more than one monitor)

@Typ0genius @christianselig The Ultrafine line has always had great Mac support. Windows people find them weird because the brightness control and audio are done via USB rather than DisplayPort.

@christianselig 32" looks very enticing though. I need to go check this out.

@christianselig Eh, DualUp is still by far the best monitor LG makes. Who needs wide when you can have square!

@manmachine If they managed to put a higher resolution panel in that thing I'd buy it in a heartbeat

@christianselig With oversampling from BetterDisplay it’s quite enough honestly. YMMV, of course.

@manmachine What is oversampling? It's still fewer pixels than even 4K, I'm genuinely curious what software could do to fix that!

@christianselig Basically like in old times when games did anti-aliasing by rendering the frame bigger than the actual display and scaling it down to fit. Technically less pixels, not arguing that, but looks a lot smoother than default modern macOS on a 2k screen. Retina-ifying, if you will.

@christianselig Yup! And BetterDisplay can do it for any display, not just those that macOS deems to be retina enough.

@christianselig if this is usable as a display for Mac and PC (bonus points for Dell-style KVM function) I will want this…
