There are literally 5 desktop monitor models in the market today that provide a natively scaled experience for macOS users. All over $1000. The only monitors that would provide the equivalent screen real estate of my 2005 30&amp;quot; Apple Cinema Display @ 2560x1600 are the $2800 Dell 6k and the $5000 XDR.&lt;p&gt;Apple released &amp;quot;retina&amp;quot; scaling in 2012. It&amp;#x27;s been more than 10 years.</text></comment>

The only higher ppi displays from Apple are on the iphone, and they are not special, most decent (android) phones from 5 years ago have 400ppi+. Funnily Apple was dragging their feet in this space back then.&lt;p&gt;Apple is more consistent, but it really isn&amp;#x27;t hard to get 4k laptop displays now.</text></comment>
