Ascended. Dell U4025QW
Decided on this instead of the 57” Samsung. The thunderbolt hub sold me alone due to being able to cleanly route my Apollo 8p into the downstream port of the monitor leaving one tb4 cable into my Mac for data/video/apollo. Came from 2 27” 1440p ultra sharps and while I do miss a bit of screen real estate, my usable area is drastically higher due to the 5k resolution.
Only cons so far are my M1 Pro can only push 5k100hz with the workaround with better display and the ambient light sensor being too aggressive. In a way I also wish the network port would have had a way to connect to both machines and assign IPs, so that one doesn’t flip back to WiFi.
