  You don't find the lack of brightness to be an issue? Both of these monitors only hit 280 nits. I do find that the intersection of size, resolution, and brightness is nearly empty. I have a pair of U2720Qs, but would love something more in the 500-600 nits range or even 1000 that isn't the Apple XDR. LG has promised a new 40wp95c for over a year now (and amusingly reannounced it at CES this year, since they didn't ship at all in 2021) which maybe works but at $2000 for a monitor, it's not for everyone (and it came in at a much lower brightness than people expected).

    Not really, it seems bright enough to me. I have bright Australian sunshine coming in the window of my office and I can still see it absolutely fine (the sun does not hit the screen directly, I will add). Doesn't blasting more nits at your eyeballs cause more strain? I'm asking this out of ignorance, I have no real idea, a display that's too dim seems likely to cause this as well. I can definitely see more brightness being great for gaming and media consumption/creation. But for coding? Not sure I'm there, and I'm certainly not looking to spend $2k on a screen, when that can buy a pretty good, much larger TV!

    Lack of brightness? The monitor is pretty much _too_ bright as it is. I use around 30-40% brightness and never feel the need to adjust it. An even brighter monitor seems alien to me!
