On a Mac, the UI on 4k at 27" is too large. That is why the Studio Display is 27" 5k and the 24" iMac is 4.5k. You can do non-integer scaling to change the UI

You can do non-integer scaling to change the UI size, but then it becomes blurry.

- n8cpdx 5y agoPeople say it is blurry but I think I have pretty good eyes and do a lot of pixel peeping and don’t really see the issue. I don’t think I’ve ever run macOS at the native resolution because things are just too big, with the exception of my 1080p monitor. Does blurry mean something other than blurry?
