Best monitor equivalent to iMac, Retina
I'm looking for a monitor that will be just as crisp and clear or even better as the iMac or Mac external displays in the Apple Store for my MacBook. Anyone know which monitor would be the best kind to get?

This is super informative! Thanks! What does P3 mean exactly?AncasterRFD wrote: ↑ What are you using it for? Budget?
Aside from iMac P3, professional grade monitors are NEC SpectraView and Eizo that cover AdobeRGB. All of them overkill if you're not calibrating them and doing colour critical work.
The best displays at Apple are the 5K iMacs that cover the P3 colour space (not all Macs cover P3).
sRGB - most consumer monitors
Apple P3 - pro wide gamut, slightly wider in the reds
Adobe RGB - pro wide gamut, slightly wider in the greens
Not sure which MacBook you have, only 2016 onward running Sierra or higher can natively push 4K 60Hz using a USB-C to USB-C. If you just want a nice 4K IPS 99% sRGB, you need to find one with USB-C like this:

Many monitors are well under 99% sRGB, I've only touched on colour, there are several variables to a good display. A table like this would be good for monitors, but I can only find notebooks, see headings:
