Conclusion: The first downside is that the color tends to lean a little too red, even when the display is set to the P3 color space. Secondly, you can’t use a monitor lamp because the heat dissipation outlet at the back would block it. Lastly, the black halo at the bottom is rather large, and I’m uncertain whether this is a quality control issue.

On the flip side, the color vibrancy and clarity far surpass those of regular IPS monitors. To me, the visual effect feels identical to that of a glossy screen—there’s absolutely none of the hazy, grayish tone typical of IPS displays. This, I believe, is largely due to its high brightness, which visually appears to reach around 600 nits, akin to the M3 Pro MacBook Pro 16. For someone like me who always works with the brightness cranked all the way up, this is incredibly advantageous.

The most striking feature is that this monitor might just be the only budget-friendly option for Mac users seeking both 4K resolution and a refresh rate exceeding 120Hz. Its color accuracy is nothing short of astonishing. While there may be a slight red tint in some scenes, after comparing numerous images, it’s undeniably capable of handling design and photo editing tasks with ease.
This could be attributed to its use of mini-LED technology, much like the MacBook, coupled with Xiaomi’s exceptional color accuracy control, which ensures colors are rendered with remarkable precision.
After the government subsidy, the price drops to an absurdly reasonable 2290. If you can overlook the minor red hue, this monitor is practically flawless. It’s hard not to imagine what would happen if Xiaomi continued to refine its mini-LED monitors and fine-tuned the color accuracy to near-indistinguishability from the MacBook. How on earth would BenQ have the audacity to sell their so-called “Apple color” monitors at double the price?
