Er Used For Portable Desktop Computer

Prior to that, the last major upgrade to the Mac mini arrived in 2018, giving it a much-needed refresh, so its no surprise people started to pick up this portable desktop computer again.

However, unlike the iMac, the mini requires necessary peripherals, particularly a reliable monitor.

While Apple recently released a new line of Pro displays, they are out of reach for most consumers (price-wise, they start at 5,000 for just the monitor no stand), so for now the best options remain other brands.

It features a beautiful 27-inch screen (5,120 x 2,880 resolution), which is also the size of Apples larger iMac, and has a similar P3 wide color gamut with 500 nits brightness.

The monitor can also be adjusted up and down to improve your viewing experience.

The LG UltraFine 5K will set you back around 1,300 but keep in mind, this is a 5K display.

Also, the newly released Apple Pro Display XDR will run you 5,000 (without a stand) so this does seem like a better deal.

The UltraFine 4K is a bit smaller than its 5K counterpart, sizing up at 24 inches with a resolution of 3,840 x 2,160.

This is helpful for plugging in additional accessories such as a Thunderbolt 3 external drive.

Thats because not only does it work in the P3 wide color gamut that Apple uses on all of its products, but it even has an M-book mode, which is essentially the P3 gamut with a tweaked white point to make images look even better.

Throw in excellent color accuracy and minimal color error and youve got yourself an ideal monitor if you need to edit photos and videos on your Mac mini.

The 5,120 x 2,160 resolution is backed by a 5ms response time and a 60Hz refresh rate.

USB-CThunderbolt 3, DisplayPort, HDMI, and USB-C ports are all included on this model, so you dont need to worry about compatibility.

You can expect a response time of 4ms, which isnt as performing as other monitors in the same price range.

However, the response time shouldnt be an issue for Mac mini users.

You will need to use an HDMI connection with mini, as this model lacks some of the advanced ports of other models.

This display is an excellent option if youre looking for an affordable 16:9 screen.

The display resolution clocks in at a healthy 2,560 x 1,440, enough for plenty of detail.

We really like the slim design of this monitor and think the thin bezels work great with the minimalist Apple aesthetic.
