    External monitor users, what are your must-have accessories?

    Getting myself a 4K 120Hz Dell (S2527QC) for my M1 MBA very soon. I was wondering which accessories go nicely along with the monitor setup. Lightbars? Soundbars? Desktop Toy? Anything else? Which one is your favourite? This will be my first ever monitor experience with a Mac so, be gentle!

    I've noticed that in dark scenes, certain areas appear much darker than others, like shadows within the dark scenes, and it looks unnatural.
