If this website is serious, simply follow their advice.

If you don't go for the cheapest ones, it's hard to find a really bad monitor nowadays.

Dell sometimes offer bargains on good monitors.

Choose a matte one.

Even if you choose a costly monitor which is sold for photo editing and supposed to be calibrated, you'll need to calibrate it after some months.

Nearly any good monitor can be calibrated. So better spare some bucks on the monitor and also buy a calibrator.

This is the wrong place to ask a question about digital photo editing.

You may get very lucky and find one individual that is into digital photo editing.

You are more likely to get opinions.

This place is all about cnc routers and Vectric Software related to CNC - not digital photo editing.

Personally, I like digital photo and editing, but am just a beginner. I use my Dell and Samsung monitors on my dual monitor system, nothing special. They both work just fine and I will not be looking for anything different any time soon.

I don't know where to find the answer to your question.

Apple seems to have been the bottom line is graphics.

To me - any decent monitor is just fine.
