I have posted this information so many times now in forums and on video comments that I put together some wise words from a Mac video hardware expert (not myself) and accounts of my own, personal experience with my somewhat odd, 4K-like display (~140dpi) that needs to be scaled like a 4K...

My 21.5" 2013 iMac has a decidedly non-Retina (1080p) display. It works great on unsupported Big Sur, but clearly Apple is no longer optimizing visual elements (like Control Center) for non-Retina displays. By using a 21.5" 2015 or even 2017 panel, I am thinking it may be possible to upgrade the...

Hey all! Long story short, I’ve got a great condition MacBook Air 2018 which regrettably the retina screen is completely screwed 😫 No idea how it happened, looks as if there’s a small chip in it. I’ve been quoted around £350 to repair, in which it’s not worth it as I can purchase a full...

If I have a 4K display scaled to 2560x1440, what should the dimensions of my wallpapers be if I want the crispest background possible? Will 2560x1440 wallpapers look as crisp as the scaled UI on a 4K monitor with native dimensions of 3840x2160? Or should I strive to download 3840x2160 wallpapers?

Apple has had Retina display Macs since... 2013??... and they STILL haven't fixed the Preview app's failure to show 100%-scaled images as 1 pixel per one pixel. It shows them blown up somewhat. Yes, I have checked the setting in Preview's preferences, and NO, it has no effect. It defeats the...
