Can also request through chat with a CSR to get a $50 off $500 to bring the price down to $450 (about $484 with tax included in FL). Most people don't have problem with getting the coupon unless you have used some coupons like that recently

Review this video to see how this monitor works and how it installs, https://youtu.be/Vj-iaDNxr1c
The monitor arm clamps on your desk, articulates really well, and although has a smaller range of motion than my Ergotron, is suitable for the small everyday articulation -- honestly, I don't move my monitors on a regular basis. Really enjoy the amount of room freed up on my desk.
Use it with a docked MacBook Pro with MonitorConrol (https://github.com/MonitorControl.
Amazing price.
I don't understand why people ask for apple vs orange comparison. Not trying to be an a$$ but what is the reason behind this question? If you need a 4k monitor, have the required hardware to run it at 4k, and can afford it then this is the only choice of the 3 monitors. If you don't have the GPU/hardware to run games/programs at 4k then this is a waste of a monitor.

See the video below where it shows the bolt going through the desk, just use a 5/16" drill bit to make the hole if you can't use the clamp.

The monitor has excellent color accuracy and a relatively wide color gamut. It's primarily designed for DCI-P3 color space, which is for video editing, but it also does 120% of sRGB which is used for websites, and most photography.
If the person does photos for print specifically, then they need aRGB - Adobe RGB - color space for the wider gamut of printing.
I would ask them what color space they use to proof their work. If it's sRGB or DCI-P3, this would be an excellent choice for a 4K monitor.
If they do print work, you should look elsewhere for a monitor that does 95%+ aRGB. I recommend BenQ proofing monitors for designers, in that case.

This is a great monitor for photo/video editing on budget. However concept D or some very higher needs will be used in a professional setting.
Pass.

This monitor:
32" 4k, 3840x2160, 137.68 PPI, 0.1845mm dot pitch, 32UN880-B.AUS
I think for programming, you would want the PPI to be close to 104ppi to 109ppi. Text will appear increasingly smaller as the ppi exceeds 108ppi.
Here's some perspective:
15" laptop 1366x768, 104.47 PPI , 0.2431mm dot pitch (very comfortable text size)
15" laptop 1920x1080, 146.86 PPI, 0.173mm dot pitch (text size too small)
Thus, I try to get a monitor around 104ppi to 109ppi for programming.
I believe resizing the resolution will give suboptimal clarity of the letters so for programming, I stick with 2k monitors at 27 inch:
27" 2k, 2560x1440, 108.79 PPI, 0.2335mm dot pitch
I used this ppi calculator to compute the PPI and dot pitch.

If you scale the fonts in windows, my understanding is that some apps that are not programmed for the scaling will appear wierd -- what you see won't be what you normally would get in native resolution.
I hope this helps someone in the programming world. If you're a programmer in the bay area and want to be my mentor, let me know.
