How does the resolution compare to a Retina display on a MacBook Pro 13 inch (2015)? Against the Retina pixel density, many external monitors unfortunately look quite blurry.

Hello Mr Vogler,

The pixel density is decisive, often indicated as "dpi" (dots per inch). With this monitor it is about 108 dpi. Unfortunately, this is not much if you are sensitive to it. On a Macbook Retina 13 inch, the pixel density is 220 dpi, more than twice as much.

You can easily calculate the pixel density thanks to this online tool: https://www.sven.de/dpi

If the monitor is further away from you than your Macbook, you need less pixel density. If you're looking for a comparable image, I'd consider a 4k screen at that size.
