What monitor(s) do you have for programming?

Please tell us what is your preferred monitor setup for programming(not gaming) and why you have chosen it.

Does your monitor have eye protection technology?

What is the refresh rate, resolution, size, etc?

Please put photos if you can :slight_smile:

So here is mine, be indulgent, I’m moving and there’s a lot of “mess” around :sweat_smile:

So the big one is for code, and the lat one is for:

  • Documentation with Dash
  • Terminal
  • Communication software like Discord, Messenger, etc.

Got my M1 mac mini fixed under the desk with this.
Here is the 35" monitor, LG, it’s 4K and the refresh rate is 100Hz, makes things so smooth.
The small one here, 22" HP.
And the arm, I used it first for the big one but I prefer to use it for the small one at the end.

I’ve got an LG5K Display hooked up to a 16" MBP:

Here’s a good review of it:

It’s good not just for graphics but for anything where you need to read for long periods (such as code!) because the text is incredibly crisp. I would struggle going to a lower DPI now tbh.

This video makes me want to get an Apple XDR :joy:

I have currently have a LG UltraFine 27’’ 5K (5120 x 2880) monitor. I tend to have two columns of code or two columns of terminals.

Where Next?
