Even scrolling text or dragging windows around at >120 Hz is a game changer. Going back to the MBP display gives me instant headache until I re-adapt. It's hard to describe, it's like all of a sudden everything has a very distracting input lag.
Now I just need to wait for a 4k 144Hz IPS that can be driven via MBP (or just get what's on the market and run eGPU)
I will never give up my 24" 16:10 Dell Ultrasharp even if it is low def.

The technical details are all right (or seem right to me, anyway), but this is too opinionated for my liking. No, you do not need a 4K monitor for software development. Some people might like them, some won't. [edit/clarification: someone rightfully pointed out that nobody will actively dislike a 4K monitor. I was unclear here: I meant "some people won't need them" more than "dislike them"] This sounds like when Jeff…
After using a rMBP for 6 years, I realized that using a lower resolution and lower quality display makes absolutely no sense at all if both graphical power and budget is available (first 13' rMBP had some serious issue driving the display). Better quality image is better quality image. I think Apple's biggest selling point over any vendor right now, despite numerous issues with its hardware and software in the recent…
I've been focused on Apple display products for the past few months as I'm looking to make an upgrade from the Dell P2715Q 4k 27" I use primarily for development. There is a three page thread on using the Apple 32" XDR for software dev on MacRumors. [1] I believe there is a major product gap at Apple right now in the mid-market display. Specifically a replacement for the LED 27" Cinema Display which was announced 10…
I ended up going with Dell U2720Qs, and after some tedious initial work to get them running natively at 60hz, they're fine.
I would have bought the Apple displays in a second though if they had been priced up to maybe even 3k each.

I have one, too. It's pretty sad that 16:10 has fallen out of style and that there is no 27" 2560x1600 display available. Dell has the Ultrasharp UP3017 with 2560x1600 at 30", maybe that's something you can try if you want more pixels. It's just pretty expensive and has a big bezel since it was released in 2017.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Can read the content clearly while smoothly 120 Hz scrolling or moving windows around.
You can do that just fine at 60 Hz, if there is no tearing (all screen updates appear during vertical sync). You can read scrolling movie credits just fine at 24 FPS.
>Lowercase letters only have 7 (seven!) vertical pixels to work with. That’s NOT MUCH. I have more fingers than that. Quite an argument.
Using 55" LG OLED @4k as my main display, nothing compares.
The extra real estate is a way bigger productivity enhancer than smoother fonts. Like there's not even any comparison.
