over 7 years ago from Andy Leverenz, Product Designer
I'm looking for a vertical monitor to pair with my iMac. I had another thunderbolt display but it took way too much real estate on my desk.
Any designers/coders have a preference or recommendation?
I just bought this http://amzn.to/24oZHx4 and I don't understand why people are still getting the Cinema Display.
Perhaps they have better taste.
Yes the housing of the cinema display does look better, but at what price? Given that the likelihood of a new model release is increasing, purchasing the current cinema display is more and more a bad idea.
Then you upgrade to new one (if the release a new model), what's the problem?
I'm not certain, but doesn't the Cinema Display cost 3 times as much as a 4K dell monitor? Unless you're swimming in money, it seems wasteful to buy a Cinema Display now.
Perhaps they have better taste.
more likely a matter of brand loyalty than taste.
Brand loyalty? What do you mean?
I like sharp fonts, and I can run this as a giant retina screen. Screw the "taste", this is a neat monitor.
Not sure of the practicality and I don't have experience with it, but I stumbled across this the other day: http://www.duetdisplay.com/
Grab an iPad Pro, a mount or stand, and that could potentially be one heck of a workstation.
Can't go wrong with Dell UltraSharp series. Best price/performance displays for sure.
