• As you’re using an UltraFine, maybe you’re able to give me some pre-purchase monitor advice.

    Looking to get a 4K USB-C monitor to connect to an iPad Pro. I do some photo work and retouching but not that much, I reckon that will probably be less than 30% of the time. The rest of the time I’ll probably just use it to watch Netflix etc.

    As far as I can see I have two options in the £4o0-£600 price range:

    The 23.7 4K LG UltraFine from Apple - £629
    https://www.apple.com/uk/shop/product/HMUA2B/A/lg-ultrafine-4k-display
    Or
    The LG 27UL850 - £459
    https://www.lg.com/uk/monitors/lg-27UL850

    More PPI on the UltraFine but bigger bezels and more spendy.

    Would you think an UltraFine would be wasted for the kind of use I’m describing? Have you or anyone else here used the other LG screen?

    There’s a 100% rated seller on eBay selling “pristine” refurbished UltraFine’s for £499, which is a great price, but I think I’m too wary to shell out that kind of money and have no warranty.

    TL;DR - Are the LG Ultrafine’s worth the premium price over other LG monitors?

  • I can't speak for the Ultrafines, but at work we've 80-odd of the 27UD850s for graphics work and they're pretty great.
