Where do you find a 5k monitor these days? They seem to have mostly vanished, other than the old LG one that Apple still sometimes has in stock (I’ve heard bad things about it). I also love my first-gen 5K iMac display, but can’t use it for my work MacBook. I’d love to find a solid 5K display but until then I’m still on a 1440p ultrawide. |

But the LG UltraFine 5K is still alive and well. My original one (vintage 2017) died recently (bad mainboard) and I went out shelled out $1400 for a brand new one from the Apple Store. They had a bunch in stock - it was not hard to locate.
I don't know whether it's new firmware or new hardware or what, but this monitor works 1000000000 better than my older version of the exact same one. I had plenty of issues on the last one - wouldn't startup after sleep, etc. This new one is just flawless - starts right up every morning, no ghosting, etc.
