FYI in Macrumors [1] forum users found that when connected via thuderbolt 4 in Apple Silicon Macs, you dont get the full resolution, because MacOS does not enable DSC. In short you get max 6016 x 3384 instead of the native for the monitor 6144×3456.
You have to either use the HDMI port from the Mac (if you have an M2 one) or use a usbc to HDMI converter which for some reason triggers the DSC.

- jwells89 3y agoSlight correction, the monitor will run at full resolution (6144x3456), but with 24-bit color instead of 30-bit. To get 30-bit over Thunderbolt one has to run it at 6016x3384. So effectively, you get full PPI or full color but not both.
- whatever1 3y agoThanks for the correction :D The main issue is that users reported that text does not look very nice when the monitor runs in 24-bit color and full resolution, which is a bit concerning when considering the asking price.
- jwells89 3y agoFully agree, at that price the picture needs to be very close to perfect.
