How about this Samsung 28" 4K IPS from BestBuy for $350?

Is this good for video editing and content creation?

I'm not an expert but the 4K resolution and the fact that it's IPS make me think it would be, and the reviews are good.

It should be, unless you need more than 60Hz.

thanks for posting that one... it seems if you want 120hz you have to pick this LG one that goes for just over 1k. keep in mind i don't think something like a 3080 gpu could even do 4k/120hz for gaming...

Are they compatible with MacBook Air M1? I don’t need it for gaming at all.

Sorry, the 2 Dell monitor have the same screen just one have a better stand for $30 more. Buy the Dell if you are into pro photo editing, you will have no problem with the Samsung either with video editing.

So what’s the pro of spending $100 more on the Dell one?
