I have just had an uncomfortable experience monitor wise. I'm a graphic designer/artist and I have just bought a M1 Mac Mini to replace my older 27inch iMac.

I felt I couldn't afford the new AppleStudio Display so I researched cheaper alternatives and went for the 4K 32 inch Dell U3223QE Ultrasharp monitor. Well 'Ultrasharp' it isn't, far from it. In fact it's so bad that I'm returning it. Text, icons, everything so blurred and almost bitmapped that for a designer/typographer it's almost unusable. Dell told me late in the piece that it's not truly compatible with the Mac Mini.

After a lot of agonising and fear about getting another unsatisfactory 4K monitor, I bit the bullet and have just ordered the Apple StudioDisplay. In Australian this thing costs a fortune and also has a minimum 8week delivery wait.
I hope this is helpful for others feeling undecided.
