![]() In Germany, only the 27UL850-W seems to be available. Yet Apple is optimizing the experience towards all-Retina, throwing away old cold paths to make 1x text rendering workable. So if you’re a business and buying an M1 MacBook Air, what you end up doing is adding a USB hub (the benefit of Thunderbolt docks, too, is too slim), and then one or two external decidedly not Retina displays. I do understand why Apple doesn’t really want to participate in this market segment, but they might underestimate just how much they’re hurting the Mac platform by there basically being no good Retina display options at all. on “real” 2x 2560x1440 on the iMac.Īt $450 (discounted to $380), it’s entering “can reasonably talk bosses into buying” territory, which the $700 UltraFine and $1300 UltraFine 5K are laughably outside of. While the actual feel of text rendering is obviously quite subjective and hard to put in words, I think I would’ve liked to see some macro photos of what text rendering does look like at (oversampled, virtual 2x) 2560x1440 vs. I assume it’s the leftmost one? Or isn’t offered at all, perhaps because macOS knows the physical screen size and deems that way too large (but then shouldn’t 2560x1440 be the center option?)? All stops other than perhaps the leftmost one, in any case, appear to be oversampled. But that at Retina (1920x1080) doesn’t seem to be the center stop (why not?). I guess the deciding factor here was “common resolutions”, whereas I would have intuitively expected “stops that make sense”. For example, on my MBP, which is natively 2880x1800, the center option is 1440x900. This made me realize that macOS seems rather arbitrary about them. ![]() So what are the “looks like” options provided here? 429868031t2_B07MKT1W65
