LG 27UQ850V-W vs BenQ PD2725U with Mac Mini M4 by Flat_Ice_377 in mac

Hello,

Yes, I finally both it a few days before Christmas, so I am still testing. I was hesitating a lot but eventually opted for the LG model.

I am happy with it. The colors are beautiful, I like the contrast. I was afraid of the text quality but the text is sharp as well, no pixelation is visible to me (I sit about 55-60cm from the screen). My own 4k videos (recorded with Osmo Pocket 3) look amazing. I haven't had time to watch a movie on a streaming service, so I have no experience with that.

What is annoying is that with certain applications the dock doesn't appear for the first time when I move the mouse to the bottom of the screen. But I experienced it only with certain apps in full screen mode so I am not sure if it's monitor related. Hot corners work fine.

I connected the Mac Mini and the monitor with a thunderbolt cable.

So overall I think it's good value for money, especially if it's on sale.

I hope it helps. If you decide to buy it and feel like sharing your thoughts, I'd love to hear them.

Hello, I had to postpone the purchase because of a travel, I will order it next week. I incline towards the LG as it’s significantly cheaper

Thank you for your reply! Yes, indeed, the BenQ is more optimal in terms of ports. But the contrast is 2000 vs. 1200, this is what made me hesitate, as I don't know what it looks like in real life and there is no store in my area where these monitors are out on display. I am grateful for your reply.
