I'm moving soon and looking to set up a home office for my wife and I to use when needed. I want to get a biggish display to plug our M2 Airs into but I can't justify the price of the Studio Display or an Ultrafine for how much I expect we'll use it. I'm looking at used 4K monitors right now but I'm having a hard time figuring out what size I should go for to get native resolution with text, icons, etc somewhat close to that of the default scaling on the Air.
Is there are specific PPI/DPI I can look for (I can do the calculating myself, but I just don't know what number to shoot for)?
Is there anything else to consider that I might be overlooking?
EDIT: I searched for a couple of hours before making this thread, but wouldn't ya know it, 20 mins after posting I found the answer I was looking for. If anyone else finds this in the future, this link has a great chart: https://bjango.com/articles/macexternaldisplays/
Looks like a 1440 monitor would be a better fit, so I'll probably try find an ultrawide.
