Studio Display advice

I am considering buying a Mac Mini with the Studio Display as I need the 27inch display and they now only do 23 inch display. I see from comments that the Studio Display can be used with a MacBook Pro 13inch 2017 or later which mine is. Would it make sense to not buy the Mac Mini? If I did I would trade in the MacBook as I do not use it so much as the desktop

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.1

Mac Mini M2 vs iMac 24” Hi everyone, I want your opinion on something. My old mid 2014 iMac broke down last week, so I am now looking for a new desktop. I’m in doubt between an Mac Mini M2 and an iMac 24” Now I am thinking about getting a M2 Mac Mini, since I already have a keyboard, mouse and speakers which still work great. I would just need a new display. The Apple studio display is too overpriced in my opinion, so I’m looking for a good alternative. Price wise the entry level Mac mini costs €710 over here, while the entry level iMac costs €1700, so like €1000 more expensive. Is there any good display I can get for that money, that would make it worth buying the M2 Mac Mini over the iMac 24”? The Mac Mini has higher specs, I could also get a 16gb model for €950. I do already have a MacBook Pro M1 (2020)

Mac mini or Mac studio I have a 27" mac, late 2014. I use it for home computing and a little gopro editing. Its starting to struggle and I want to upgrade. Will the Mac Mini M1 do the job or should i get the Mac studio. I want to get good life before having to replace. Looks like I am up for a new display as well. Cheers

Non Apple displays Hello Group, I'm thinking of replacing my old iMac; I have a perfectly good keyboard and mouse but can't run an OS later than High Sierra . I need 1TB of storage — my current thought is a Mac Mini with a non-Apple display, and 24" is about the maximum size for the space. Can anyone recommend a display that I won't find deeply disappointing compared with Apple's?

The Mac mini would be an ideal pair with the Studio Display. As for trading in the MacBook, you’ll get a better price if you sell it yourself (assuming it’s even trade able).
