Then some great work from Dr. Scott M. Baker in restoring an old CRT display - by polishing out its "cataracts."
Have at look at this one if only for the before-and-after shots, they're great!

I have just added a Uperfect Portable 18-inch monitor ( aka Ugame K118 / M180J03 ) to my Mac Studio as a second display. It's 2560x1600 and is powered by one USB-C port and receives input via another USB-C input ( Thunderbolt 3/4, USB 3.1 ) or mini HDMI. It's one of those super light, portable units with an iPad-like magnetic case-wrap that's meant to tote along with your laptop to serve as a second screen on the go.
I connect it, it appears, it works. But...
When the system sleeps the displays and then wakes (the Studio itself never sleeps), this second display does not reappear. I can power cycle it and it will not appear to the Mac. On a hard power cycle, the screen comes alive and reports NO SIGNAL on the display screen, while connected to the Mac Studio as it has always been. Only when I disconnect the USB-C data cable and reconnect does it reappear to the Mac.
Obviously I can't run like this. I don't see any setting on the display's onboard menu that talks about settings around this. There is a ECO setting, but it's not to do with sleep; it has options like: standard, game, text, movie, etc.
Anyone have any ideas regarding how to get around this? Thanks.

I've ordered this 18-inch 2560x1600 display to replace the dying secondary display on my Mac Studio.

My beloved 4:3 aspect, 1600x1200, 20-inch HP LP2065 is near death (second one I've had, after the first died). I use this rotated for 1200x1600 and will use the new unit rotated, as well, on the same VESA arm.
It will be my new IRC screen, basically. Hope it works out well.

And finally some science, and this one is... well, pretty neat: engineered skin cells which turn into a functional, long-lasting, power-free display - so people can read health markers at-a-glance (is the hope, anyway...)

Looking for a different monitor use case, I happened to notice the LG DualUp display is available at far less places than it was a year or two ago...
LG confirmed in product site feedback that it is still being made -- in a 5 month old post.
This might be time for me to grab a second one to keep waiting in the wings. Best display I've ever used in my life (center, 2560x2880 8:9 aspect display (rotated 90 degrees in accompanying photo)).

My second HP LP2065 20-inch 4:3, 1600x1200 pixel display died. (The first died, and I found a NIB unit on eBay to replace it.) It's the perfect screen to use rotated as a second display. I've been using one for 20 years (they each last about 10, in my experience).
Anyone have any recommendations for a source for a decent 4:3 aspect display with a VESA mount? They're a bit harder to find, these days. About to hit eBay again...

One issue I've noticed with my #ONN brand monitor from #Walmart, despite it being HDR capable and 180hz, is that the pixel response time is visibly bad with the color black. Everything else looks fine, and even white on black looks ok, but any time there's black on a lighter background I can literally watch the pixels fade out in real time with my unaided eyes.
A very tempting new ePaper display kit from Seeed Studio next, featuring an E Ink Spectra 6 (not 6+, sadly, but we can't have everything) six-colour 13.3" panel.
Can't quite justify the cost, but it's getting there - this would have been hundreds of quid just a few years back.
