LG used to with the Ultrafine 5k (I believe it's discontinued now?)

I got a deal on a used one last year and I love it. It's the only monitor I've used plugged into a MacBook that didn't look notably off (worse) compared to the MacBook's display sitting next to it. Only thing a bit jarring is it's 60Hz but I can live with it.

The $1600 Studio Display is also 60hz, including this "brand new" one (which appears to be the exact same, just with a new web cam?)

Asus has picked up the 5k 27" monitor from LG, it's the $730 PA27JCV

I've been using a work-issued one since 2018, and my only complaint in 2026 is that some of its rear USB ports are failing.
