Very interesting. I have been using 4k 27" monitor but this makes me temping to switch to 32".

But I don't like that ugly and huge webcam. I would use my own webcam on top of it.

Why Mini Displayport? I haven't heard of Mini DP for years.

Mini-DP is still used for a lot of professional graphic cards that have a lot of outputs, because you can’t fit 4 or 8 regular sized DPs on a normal PCIe card bezel, especially if it is just half size. (https://www.techpowerup.com/review/nvidia-rtx-a2000/2.html)

My older Dell monitors have both (mini and regular DP) and ship with a mini to regular cable. So you can use it in both directions and they don’t have to ship two cables.
