Ask HN: Recommendations for Large, Bright 4K Monitor?
I have an LG 27UK850 27 inch 4K monitor. It's been serviceable, but WFH has really exposed how lacking in brightness it is against day light whereas when I was in office, the pervasive fluorescent lighting seemed to change how I was perceiving my work monitor.
Any recommendations for a large (> 27 in), possibly curved, and bright (> 400 nits) 4K+ monitor? If so let me know any cons as well that I should consider.
- verdverm 4y agoI like Dell monitors. Have been buying them exclusively for many years
- anuvrat1 4y agoThere are some up-and-coming monitors based on LG C2 42 inch like ASUS, and on Samsung's QDOLED like recent Alienware 34 inch.

As for me, a Philips (AOC) PHL 329P9 (4K / 31.5 in) monitor has been a excellent companion, whether macOS, Windows or Linux.
- imbnwa 4y agoInteresting, what's the virtue of honeycomb blinds? I'm guessing by eyeballing it better light filtering than normal blinds cause of the material?
