What's a good new 24"+ monitor or even a TV (smart & 4K R OK)?

I just bought my second 27" UHD monitor (LG 27UK500-B). 32" was definitely a
consideration, but I decided it would be too big and would require too much head
movement to see everything or have to be pushed back too far on my computer desk. 27"
seems perfect.

To get it perfect, one accordance is to dated studies from the
physiologist/ocularist specialists from CRTs (that would have been
artificially high placement of at most 30-40lb. 19" screens, perhaps
published before, at a latter size for flatpanels beginning to
circulate). Their solution, or one resultant, was an odd bit of
Command Central "computer station", desk furniture with a recessed
plane for an angled monitor below and through the desktop;- seems
there was a also pane of glass involved to cover, effectively, a
looking down into a gaping hole in the middle of the desk. Great for
moistened eyes and measures of blinking, but a nightmare for the usual
accoutrements of cables and routing to beadboarders, updaters and
garage hobbyists of the assembly lines.

I'd take a 27" over a 24" I ventured into sometime ago, however.
Unpleasant is hard enough from the standpoint that my first, of the
first flatpanels, was a 32" initially priced at $2000. (Which broke
within a year for replacement with a newer model that lasted two
decades.)

I bought that at $600 -- still, quite the big-binge sale. And my
present 32" -- no more than a few years old, along with its Best Buy
"Geek" (inhouse) extended warranty -- is an atrocity of comparison. A
measure, I'll presume, your LG 27UK500-B is by miles ahead of an
unmentionably cheap 32", by any reasonable accord for Crisp Legible
Text.

Less, at least to me, alongside for costlier premiums to the "decent"
32", overall, for a present and somewhat favorable disregard while
reading from fixed eyes staring at the ceiling. Doing it "right" now
might imaginably take quite some complexity after establishing a basic
interface. Starting with reviews, (on a gaming bias), I'd prefer a
storefront display at least for an idea of what sorts of applications
I'd probably not be able to think to ask to run while at an actual
store.

Although with at least three more years warranty from Best Buy on this
one it should be apparent I'm gun-shy, past two 19" CRTs I once
stacked from bedrails I'd welding, about big and very expensive
flatpanels that shortly after go bumpity-bump darkly into night.

It was funny. It was probably in the manual! ; )

Well, it's not reproducible, so not entirely
a state machine or a "feature". But it did
require unplugging stuff, fitting the other
adapter, so I could continue the session. I
was just lucky to have both adapters. I figured
I would buy the adapters, before they disappear
from retail.
