Writing code on 27” 5k with 2x scaling is incredible. It’s the sweet spot of sharpness to screen real estate and I agree that manufacturers should focus more on this format.
- Matthias247 7y agoThe problem with that resolution is that neither hdmi 2.0 nor the equivalent DisplayPort revision supports it. Therefore it is currently a thunderbolt 3 only thing - which has its own set of issues. I’m looking forward to see more 5k+ screens once those standards evolve
- TheOperator 7y agoIt's not that I don't acknowledge that it's better it just doesn't seem worth it unless specifically buying the 5k iMac. TB3 as a display standard + costs double what a 4k monitor does + lack of guarantee of long term vendor support for either TB3 as an input or 5k. I also think there are just such economies of scale around 4k as well.
