I guess using a lower resolution on a 4K Monitor can cause this "unsharpness". I would recommend using the 4K resolution instead.
Got a tip for us?

Added a Dell 25" Screen and a Logitech MX Master
I would appreciate any suggestions
Great minimal set up. I was wondering what monitor arm you have? Also, what is the picture above the screen (i recognize the yao ming meme face in it).
Thank you! The monitor arm is a basic cheap arm from amazon which is built for two monitors but I removed one arm. (https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B01FEAZG7M/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&th=1 was the url but the exact model seems to be gone at the moment) The picture was made by my girlfried with linoleum cut in school a few years ago
It was a A That is true. I meant something like on my retina Mac: Full resolution with double the size of the content. Can not remember the name of the setting at the moment

You mean display scaling??

Well, here is my setup:
MBP 2016
LG 5K monitor
Ipad mini 4
iPhone, of course
Earphones: Bose quiet comfort 35
Speaker: Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin wireless
Apple magic keyboard & trackpad when needed
Just ordered an ipad pro 12,9, probably arriving early next week. I'm itching to get my dirty hands on it

I have a MK1 Zeppelin and love it, but damn those new Zeppelins look soooooo good!
Agree. The sound is marvellous: best I've ever heard från a wireless speaker

Out of curiosity (+ I also have somewhat similar setup), what is the make/model of that display arm you're using? Looks kinda nice

While I wait for my iMac and iPad Pro 10.5"
I miss my Mac. While i use my iPad far more, there are still things I prefer about a traditional computer. I miss listening to iTunes on a big display that's easier to jump from song to song.
I love the iPad and can use it for 75% of things, but I have no desire to squeeze out my Mac usage anytime soon.
Okay. I was curious cause I've thought of going with just an iPad (and iPhone) but my brother does seem to be going that route and selling his Mac so I thought I'd ask.
Part of it is that I'm 24. I've had about 18 years of mouse and keyboard input. There are some things I could do on an iPad that I just prefer on a Mac. Over time I think more and more people will migrate over to touch input with simpler OS implementations, but there will always be needs for traditional systems.
Yeah that's true. I'm the same. I'd rather use MacOS than iOS for majority of things besides what I can use a phone for.
Oh my goodness! This needs to be made a video! Dangle the iMac over your head with transparent string.
Here is my old setup: up until december last year. I was in a kind of interim period, trying out MacOs for the first time. First I bought a MacBook 12 inch to use at the university, and i liked MacOs so much that I transformed my old PC machine into a Hackintosh.
Dec last year I sold this machine and went with a MacBook pro 15 inch to use as my main machine. No regrets whatsoever, even though I still miss playing Battlefield 1 a little....

Damn how much are those monitors and can your MBP drive them nicely?
