Wanted to like this monitor but the bad reviews were right.

I've struggled to find a 5k monitor wide enough for my desk. It almost fit the bill, but all the negative comments turned out to be correct — too lackluster.

Works great with my MacBook Pro 16

I bought it specifically for my home office (not playing) and am very happy so far. Thunderbolt 4 with PD works fine with my Macbook Pro 16 (Intel).
