Computer Monitor Recommendations - Apple XDR alternative?
Discussion
I'd like to buy a new computer monitor. Something with a wow factor.
I've always been impressed with Apple screens because you genuinely cannot see the pixels.The glossy finish is also attractive, although subjective as I'm not sure it's to everyone's liking. I want a PC monitor.
I've purchased many Dell monitors, the reviews and warranty are great. However, I've always been underwhelmed by the picture.
At work, I have a Dell U4919DW (pixel density not great, it's quite granular), Dell U2720Q (too small & I wasn't blown away by the brightness or contrast).
I guess I want noticeably bigger than 27inch, super bright, high contrast, min 4K, wow factor. I don't want to see pixels.
Is there anything similar to the Apple Pro Display XDR without the price tag? Perhaps an OLED monitor?

Let's start from the not seeing pixels, it has nothing to do with Apple. The more pixels per inch the less visible they are.

If you don't want to see pixels then you need 27inch 4k. 32inch 4k will lower the PPI making pixels more visible. You can get 5k but that is a resolution which can be found on iMacs Pro and a couple of models released by LG/Dell aimed at Mac audience.
If you want something similar to Apple Pro Display XDR then good luck as this screen is considered an amazing "bang per buck". And similar quality screens cost x times more. So if you want it get it.
