I'll switch as soon as High DPI ultrawide is a thing.
I know there's the LG 5Kx2K monitor, but MacOS can't drive it at 6880x2880 which is the scaling option I'd want - It's less pixels in total than a Pro Display XDR, but I guess their logic is "if (width > 6k) { don't allow }"
- __mp 5y agoYou can use better dummy to achieve a similar resolution: See here https://github.com/waydabber/BetterDummy https://github.com/waydabber/BetterDummy and this MacRumors thread https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/m1-mbp-lg-34-inch-ultra-wide-5k2k.2267299/page-22 https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/m1-mbp-lg-34-inch-ultra... I tried it on my M1 Mini + LG5K2K and soon disabled it again. The performance impact was noticeable in Lightroom and the display adapter config got in the way once I switched display input to my work laptop.
- cehrlich 5y agoLet me rephrase that, I'll switch once I can do it in a non-hacky way. It should be possible - 6880x2880 is fewer pixels than the Pro Display XDR, which an M1 MacBook Air can drive perfectly well.
