Positive:
- Compatible with Macbook Pro M1 via USB-C connection. Initially, I also experienced the issue of periodic screen wake-up (every few minutes) and was disappointed. However, it was eventually resolved with settings on the Macbook.
- Charges laptop via USB-C at 90W
- Ergonomics
Negative:
- Few USB ports and not in a convenient position
- Low brightness
- Average build quality
Conclusion:
If you are looking for a relatively affordable 4K USB-C monitor that is compatible with Mac, it is a very good choice.
Coming from Dell 2K here and for quite a few years, I didn't expect to feel such a strong "upgrade" to be honest. I decided to go for this one mainly because it had USB-C and was immediately available compared to a "similar" Dell. So, that was very pleasing. More specifically now:
+ Excellent (probably) image
+ Good build quality & material feel
+ Good ergonomics
+ Amazing thing with the USB-C that you connect the laptop there (Macbook Pro 16) and with one cable it gets power, drives the display, and connects to the USB hub. Truly magical.
+ Very positive about the 90W USB-C charging
Now, why 4 stars instead of 5?
- It makes a very annoying high-pitched noise as soon as it turns on. If there is some relevant noise in the room or music, it's not audible, but in a quiet state, you can hear it. It took me a few days to figure out where it was coming from.
- It has a strange behavior when the laptop goes into sleep mode (and consequently the screen) as it opens, gives it power, and then closes again every X amount of time. Maybe it's also the laptop's fault. In any case, now when the laptop goes to sleep, I also turn off the screen from its switch.
