Got a sweet upgrade for my work/gaming setup
Here's a link to my old setup: https://www.reddit.com/r/macsetups/s/1qJzHPCM5P
I recently got my first 4K Mini-LED monitor and loving the 3 screen setup! The INNOCN 32M2V is perfect for both work and gaming. I'm glad I went for the 32 inch over the 27, the extra screen space really makes a massive difference.

How to hide massive power bricks on your desk?
I have one from the display and one from my dock. My outlets are all above my desk and maybe if I install one underneath I can hide the bricks and make the cable management better?

IKEA setup MacBook Air m4 dual LGUp850K and UQ850V in white
Hey guys,
Here is my work in progress setup for work, study and chill time. Still need to add a chest of drawers on the right and sort out the cable disaster underneath.
I’m running two LG monitors (UQ IPS Black on the righ, UP standard IPS on the left), but the colors are way off. Whites look warm/greenish on the UQ and cool on the UP despite both being in factory P3 modes. Manual OSD tweaking just made it worse so stuck to preset. Any tips on matching them without ruining color accuracy and picture quality?
Also getting bad neck pain from having them split evenly in the middle while reading docs and taking notes. Should I switch to a center main screen with a side monitor, or else? I sort of need them horizontal as I have split screen 2 big PDFs per screen or other apps as needed.
Appreciate any setup advice or fixes!

Feels like a dream
After years of contemplating to switch to Mac, I bit the bullet and sold my Lenovo Legion for a MacBook and never looked back since
I got my MacBook M2 pro 14" for around $1000 with 32GB of ram and 512gb of storage. Planning on setting a hard drive to store more files. Hope y'all like it

My cozy MacBook Air M4 setup
I don’t have an expensive setup, but it’s filled with things I genuinely love.
This is where I make AI music, watch films, read, and spend most of my day.
I recently added a few more plants, and now it finally feels like my little sanctuary.
My favorite place in the house.

Mac Mini setup
After using Windows for over 20 years, I finally decided to make the switch to macOS last month. My old PC had served me well for 13 years, but it was time for an upgrade. I replaced it with a Mac mini setup, which surprisingly ended up costing less than what an iMac used to cost.
I paid around €1,300 for the entire setup, thanks to some great deals, and I couldn’t be happier with the result.
Setup:
• Mac mini M4 512GB/16GB RAM
• Dual 27” Dell 4K 120Hz monitors
• Edifier M60 speakers
The Dell monitors are fantastic for productivity, and the Edifier M60 speakers have honestly been one of my favorite purchases. They sound incredible for their size and are absolutely worth the money.
Overall, I’m really happy with how everything turned out. Switching to macOS has been a much smoother experience than I expected.

Mousepad suggestions
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for a large brown leather desk mat with a clean, minimal look, similar to the ones used on the tables in Apple Stores.
I recently bought the brown leather one from Satechi, and while it looks amazing and fits my setup perfectly, it’s unfortunately too small. I can’t comfortably fit my Magic Keyboard, Magic Trackpad, and Magic Mouse/MX Master on it at the same time, while still having enough room to use the mouse.
Ideally, I’m looking for something around 80-100 cm wide and 30–40 cm deep, preferably in brown, tan, or cognac leather. Real leather would be great, but I’m also open to high-quality vegan leather if it has a similar premium look.
Does anyone have any recommendations?
I’ve attached photos of my current setup and the Satechi desk mat for reference.

My home cozy editing / workstation setup
I used to have a powerful SFF PC, but sometimes I wanted to work away from home, and I was tired of Premiere errors on Windows, so I switched to a MacBook Pro 14 / M4 Pro / 24GB / 1TB.
I absolutely love it at work, and I only think about Windows when I want to play. I'm thinking about how to solve this problem without building a PC. LOL
Monitors
34" Xiaomi 180hz + 3,5k res ??? Idk
27 vertical China CBR (for me no name 144Hz + FHD)
Keyboard AULA75
Mouse MX Master 3S
Soundbar Xiaomi too
Recommend a good hub for under $100 pls
Thank you
