10 Reviews: Best Monitor for MacBook Pro (Apr 2024)

Delivers crisp pictures with impressive details. The BenQ EW3270U monitor is the mid-grade level for the price. And speaking of the features – it is synchronized with HDR technology for vivid color with a deep ratio – 3000: 1. Also, for eye comfort, this is integrated with Brightness Intelligence Plus technology – which works wonders – adjust the light along with the on-screen content.

I use this as a second screen with my Macbook Pro 15 and it works perfectly (and makes working from home a lot easier). I recommend it!

27-inch in size and IPS 4K UHD HDR monitor with sRGB 98% for nature-like pictures. The LG 27UL500-W is truly the best deal for such a price. This has on-screen control 2.2 technology for easy setting and use. And to make it connect with your other smart device, this can be integrated through its HDMI port.

Worked out of the box. Absolutely no issues. Has a little weight to it although it doesn’t appear bulky. Picture is outstanding. Perfect low price 4K monitor for the everyday computer user. Use it for my 2020 Mac mini (HDMI) and a 2020 MacBook Pro (USB-C to HDMI, USB-C to DisplayPort both work).

The Dell U-Series monitor is perfect for you who loves to invest a lot in technology. This features a curved display for another tremendous viewing and staring, which also delivers superb fidelity. What’s more, this also offers a flicker-free screen with a blue light controller.

Works great. had it for one year. Use it all the time with a Macbook Pro 2017 and a Macbook Air 2018.

Installed with speakers for wonderful sounds. The HP VH240a monitor is compatible with MacBook – connect it with HDMI cords. This includes a 178-degree positional viewing angle – perfect for playing games with friends. Also, for peace of mind, this is provided with a one-year limited warranty.

Much more substantial and better-built than most in this price range. Have it connected to a MacBook Pro with an HDMI x USBc thunderbolt adapter.

Features smooth and fast 144 Hz refresh rate. This supports fantastic gaming or office works. IPS display for victory and great gameplay. In addition, if you wish to be free from glitching, stuttering, tearing images, luckily this is also loaded with Adaptive-Sync technology.

I would like to say this one is the one. I am using this with Macbook pro and Windows desktop both. Picture quality, build quality both are really good , texts on the screen are crisp clear. I used Samsung 144 CHG monitor before this one is way better in every respect. Only one thing LG should improve is stand. It supports tilt but can not swivel.

The ultra-wide curved monitor for endless staring. The Scepter delivers a premium gaming experience. It is constructed with HDMI ports to connect it to other devices such as MacBook or any HDMI enabled-devices. Besides, to get you experiencing the chef’s kiss sound, it is built-in speakers.

The overall performance is good for a VA panel. I’m surprised at how good the color is when placed next to my macbook pro laptop which should be using IPS panel since it has a retina display.

Compatible with VESA wall-mounted, offers a 3-year warranty, blue light filter for tearing-free images. This low-budget monitor also comes with gaming features with an OSD sidekick. Plus, the resulting images are insanely beautiful with so much crispness.

An amazing monitor for a great price! The 1440p 170hz looks amazing, I haven’t noticed any backlight bleed, the kvm works great switching between my gaming pc and school laptop and the picture quality overdrive mode works the best for every refresh rate. Well worth it!

Features a 1 ms GTG response time, 100 million: 1 contrast ratio with 144 Hz refresh rate. The Acer EI342CKR is another curved monitor display. This is enabled with FreeSync for stuttering-free and tearing-free images. And for eargasm, the monitor comes with 2W stereo speakers. Also, to make it sync with MacBook or other smart devices, it is equipped with two DisplayPort 1.4 and dual HDMI 2.0 inputs.

For a curved widescreen with with VA and 144hz rate, you really can't beat the price. The 21:9 ratio works excellently as a single-monitor, dual-program setup for productivity. For gaming, Displayport carries 4K at 144Hz no problem (and has AMD freesync). The internal speakers leave something to be desired, but if you're not concerned with audio and just looking for great display performance on a budget, this is the one for you.

The crazily expensive monitor, but worth buying if you can afford it. The Apple Pro Display XDR is not to be questioned. This generates a 6K display, wonderful detail, and clear images, also super wide scope of view. What’s so great about this mad price tag product? Well, this is loaded with powerful features – 1000 nits full-screen sustained brightness, 1600 nits peak brightness, and 1 million: 1 contrast ratio for super deep picture displays.

I bought this monitor to color grade hdr content on DaVinci Resolve. It is really nice to see the footage in hdr directly on the resolve viewport, it looks amazing for grading hdr.

The LG 27MD5KL-B delivers a 5K display with flexible tilt construction. Compatible with Mac or iPad Pro – thanks to Thunderbolt 3 and USB Type-C connectivity. And speaking of brightness, it is supported by 500nits of brightness along with a wide color gamut.

I've used the LG 27" display for a few weeks now along with my new Mac Mini. It pairs up really nicely. It is way nicer than the screen from my old 2011 iMac (a lot more resolution for sure). The built in speakers are passable. They go from quiet to loud pretty quickly. The microphone works well. So does the camera.
