Best dual screen setup (besides MA270S) for MacBook Pro M5 Pro?
Hi there!
I just bought a 16-inch MacBook Pro M5 Pro and I'm looking for 2 screens for a dual screen setup. I did 10+ years with my last Macbook Pro and screens, so I'm willing to invest. I was thinking about up to 1500 euros (1750 dollars) per screen.
Main use: professional work (copywriting, web design, AI work), will be looking at those screens for +10 hours a day : ) I occasionally game through GeForce Now.
I'm considering 2 x the BenQ MA270S, but maybe I'm missing some other options out there? These are my requirements:
- 27-inch display
- 5K resolution
- Wide color / P3 support is a strong plus
- Good sRGB mode / color accuracy
- Good panel uniformity matters
- At least 400–450 nits brightness
- Glossy of semi-glossy, not matte
- High pixel density
- Excellent macOS scaling
- Sharp, comfortable text rendering for long writing and reading sessions
- Strong MacBook Pro compatibility
- Thunderbolt or USB-C connectivity
- Thunderbolt daisy chaining is a strong plus
- VESA mount support and good ergonomics: will be using VESA arm
- Black or dark bezel
Main disadvantage of the MA270S: the 70Hz refresh rate if I use it for gaming ...
If someone has a take on this, I'd be very grateful!
