You guys are clueless to how MSRP works with Enterprise purchases work. If my company wants to order 50 of these, they are usually charge the 1k MSRP.

If by daisy chain, you mean plug USB-C into your PC and light up both monitors? Lenovo does sell monitors with DP-Out but I don't think this one does that.

I am reading this message on a P32p-20 = it is a really good monitor. I will admit I haven't taken advantage of the KVM yet. I've used both USB-C and DP inputs and no issues.

Note that there is a P32p-30 coming out shortly - I think it comes with MiniLED - and will be a lot more expensive. Retail on this one is $1099 or so; the new one is $1699 (I think). This new one has 2 Thunderbolt ports - so maybe you can daisy chain it.

Thanks - this is helpful. Someone actually asked the same question about daisy chaining and their rep responded that it's not supported. Well, at least my quest is over.
Now need to figure out the KVM piece Smilie

Here's the monitor with DP Out - only 27" - but here's what you want to look for.

Would someone guide whether this is a good deal, or if there's any better alternatives? This is a great monitor but I'm not sure whether I should invest 500 bucks into it.

Depends on your needs, really. It's not a gaming monitor. If spreadsheets is all you do, you probably can get a cheaper monitor without any impact on performance. I'd recommend this if you do any creative work (picture or video editing) or if you spend long hours coding (since it's big with good resolution and does not hurt eyes). The support for these is also great. My first one had some weird flickering issues (very sporadic) and they replaced it without too much hassle

Yes, but 1.2 limits the total throughput available on the hub. If you want to use this hub for networking, to reduce cables, then you're only going to bandwidth reduced under 1 Gbps after video bandwidth. In 2023, if you plan to use USB to drive monitors and you want to use their hubs, you should be getting 1.4 with DSC 1.2 [cablematters.com]. Otherwise you are going to be getting frustrated with weird cable issues and hubs marked as USB 3+ reporting as USB 2.
I'm confused. Does displayport carry non video/audio data?

No, but the USB-C cable/port that exports the DisplayPort data can leave more or less room for other data [wordpress.com] depending on the characteristics of the encapsulated DP.

If your USB-C port is a USB4/Thunderbolt [wordpress.com], then you have more headroom to play with so it's not as much of an issue, at least until 8K becomes common.

Thanks, I guess I'm leaning to get one now! (Mainly for long- time coding)

Really overkill unless you work with color critical stuff since guaranteed to be color accuarate out of the box 99% sRGB, 99% BT.709, 90% DCI-P3 delta error < 2. That's the main reason it's so expensive AFICT and also true 10-bit 4K panel so won't have banding and will get clear text.
If u need to quickly switch between sRGB BT709 and P3 color spaces and make sure colors are right then it's worth paying for this monitor nod if u have no clue what that means then you overpaying and way cheaper monitors if u just gonna use it for coding LMAO

" The monitor's remarkable color accuracy seems best for photography and graphic design; in DCI-P3, a color space geared to digital cinema, it turned in a mediocre 3.48." [pcmag.com]

Apparently, this monitor has a 14bit LUT built-in so definitely a great deal if you care about accurate colors since paid like $800 for a 24"inch 1080p NEC monitor with 14bit LUT like year ago Mad Then again don't think u can use SpectraView or control the LUT like u can on the NEC not to mention not sure if there is any sort of LUE or uniformity controls on this monitor like the NEC PA series or Eizo highend crazy expensive monitor Confused

Dell S2722QC is similar 4K monitor $100 cheaper and u can find plenty of other cheaper options for programming here

I saw mention that the refresh rate will drop to 30 under certain conditions (depending on what's plugged into the USB ports) but it was scant on detail. Does anyone have more specifics on that? I'd like to keep the refresh rate at 60.

My uses are a mix of video editing and work that requires a lot of open windows. This would be connected to an M1 Pro MacBook Pro. Thanks!

if you use usb c for video then don't enable the usb 3 speeds.

otherwise use usb c for data and use displayport for video.

That's helpful, thank you! Is this true for most 4k monitors with integrated usb hubs/PD or are there other factors such as the DP/HDMI version?

yea. basically usb c doesn't have the bandwidth to support both 4k 60hz 10bit and usb 3 speeds.

hunderbolt can.
and displayport 1.4 supports compression so that can support 4k60hz and usb 3.
