    Which monitor should I pick for Mac mini M4? (2K vs 4K confusion)

    Hi everyone, I’m planning to get a monitor for my Mac mini M4 and I’m stuck between going for a 2K or 4K option. I’ve read that macOS has some scaling issues with 4K monitors, so I’m not sure if it’s really worth stretching my budget for one, or if a good 2K display would be just as fine. My...

    Hi everyone, Has anyone else experienced a pink or distorted screen on their iPhone 17 Pro? I just received mine yesterday through UPS (I’ve had launch-day shipping for my last two phones and never ran into this).

    screen flickering

    I have the Mini M4 with 2 Samsung 28" 4k displays connected from DisplayPort at the screen end to the USBs at the back of the mini. When I'm fiddling around with cabling at the rear... the screens flicker like mad, sometimes go off and then come back on. If I'm plugging USBs into the front, I...

    Apple Studio Display 2

    Can we expect smaller bezels and a 120Hz refresh rate on the next Studio Display? Is that too much to ask for?

    Ipad as the only display for Max

    Hello everyone. I often use my ipad as a second monitor for my Mac. A long time ago, I saw from some blogger how he made a separate keyboard shortcut so that the ipad could connect to the Mac as a display without the main one. That is, I turn on the Mac, press the keyboard shortcut and the ipad...

    Issues with external display on M1 MacBook Air

    Hello! I am having issues with my external display- specifically the colors. The colors on my external display are off. White isn't as white as it should be- instead is a more muted purple/pink. The blue in my background also appears purple/pink. HOWEVER, when I close my device (clamshell mode)...

    What to do when an external display is black but clearly powered on?

    I have an M3 Max 16-in MacBook Pro which I regularly connect to a 28-in Huawei MateView display. This afternoon, during a regular working session, the external display turned black (no image). Moving the pointer up beyond the menu bar worked fine — the pointer disappearing beyond the built-in...

    ASUS 2k monitor a good idea?

    So about a week ago i decided to finally pull the trigger and get me an ASUS ProAart PA278QV monitor which is 27" and 2560x1440. I really like it because it was affordable and I enjoy the design etc. But only now I'm realising that the resolution at which I'm using it is fixed to 1080p, and I'm...

    iPhone 16 Pro Gap between the display and the frame/bezel

    Hello, I took my case and screen protector out and discover some dust in the gap, which make me curious. So I have decided to gently try to “insert” a piece of paper in to see if the gap is actually a gap or not. Which led to this (first try): So yeah do you think is this common? And yes...

    I cannot believe there's no way to use a 27" 2015 iMac as a second display

    It just seems totally INSANE that there's no way to use an iMac 27" 2015 as a display without hardware hacks. In 2025. I don't need high FPS or anything. I mean, the iMac and the MacBook are on the same network, surely there is some solution which works over the local network.
