My Ultragear 32GR93U shat the bed last month and I’ve been running a suboptimal HDMI-720p Television setup for the last few weeks. I’m ready to start my search for a replacement monitor, any recommendations?

I assume that almost everything in the mid-range market will meet my soft criteria, which are:

  • 27-32" display

  • 4K UHD

  • Display Port

  • Good picture quality, OLED is a plus, not a requirement.

The difficult thing is that I would also like something well-designed because it will be used in my office where I meet with clients and I don’t want something with all the RGB gamer aesthetics. So this would mean also:

  • Sleek design (aluminum body would be preferred but anything except glossy black plastic).

E: My budget is $~300-$600USD

I’m currently weighing the Samsung M8 series as my main choice but the perceived value and past issues with Samsung displays have me nervous.

Any recommendations? Comments on the M8?

    None of your selection criteria describe what you intend to use it for. Graphic art, spreadsheets, video editing, YouTube consumption, word-processing, software development, 3D modelling, whatever.

    Each of those has different requirements.

    Then there’s the budget which is also a factor.

    For some use cases a large 4k TV is excellent, for others you need a $10k budget.

      Sorry, very light duty display and web browsing. 90% of the time, it’ll be me turning it around to a client and saying “like this?” to show a Home Depot product page. Serious drafting is handled by someone else or at home on my LG DualUp (sadly discontinued).

      Budget is $300-$600, I did mean to include that so I’ll update the main post.
