    Wide Gamut monitor

    Good day everyone:
    I am planning to buy Mac Pro and a wide gamut monitor (Screen), Hopefully early next year.
    Apple offers 4K Sharp monitor, however it is 32", which is too big for me.
    my questions are:
    does 4K mean wide gamut as well?
    I am looking for 21" or max 23" monitor. what do you recommend for me? and if you know, how much is it?
    Thank you in advance.

    Hadedh; 4k is all about resolution and not about image quality.

    The resolution and image quality have to be looked at separate and distict features of a screen. You need to see both specs to make a judgement on a specific screen. The issue with 4k is that it is the newest "feature" being rolled out and the technology is still relatively immature.

    The other issue to remember, the higher resolution is far more important on a larger sized screen, than a smaller one. If going for the 32" version, I would certainly have a hard look, but on a smaller 21" or 24", I wouldn't even bother, because the benefits would be non-existant.
