@maybe_vp There are some display choices that are especially poor for macOS, such as a 27" 4K display, because that setup results in a pixel density (163 ppi) that is right between the two setups that Apple optimized macOS to use, namely standard displays (100-110 ppi) and Retina displays (200-220 ppi). A 32" QHD display results in a pixel density of 91 ppi. That's a little bit low (a hair lower than 24" 1080p but not as bad as 27" 1080p), but if you bought a QHD display that large because you wanted things to be a bit larger onscreen and/or would be viewing from a slightly greater distance, it should work quite well.

@maybe_vp As a general bit of advice, it helps to be precise about the Apple model you have, in this case whether you have a 13" or 15" MacBook Pro. And often Apple's descriptions will say Early/Mid/Late [year]. But the P3221D is a 32" QHD display with a USB-C input. You should be able to connect that with a USB-C cable and be good to go. That said, some Dell displays do seem to have interoperability issues with some Apple products. Since both products work fine when the other product is switched out, it's not clear whose "fault" those issues are, and Apple and Dell are basically just directing users to each other, but I haven't seen anything about the P3221D specifically. So it's certainly worth a shot.

@jphughan Thank you for response.
I have 16” MacBook
I have already ordered this monitor and I'm waiting for it but after many reviews in the Internet that describe all the horror of displaying the MacOs interface on external displays, I started to worry about it)

Hi.
This is the best monitor, that i used ever.
Monitor works with mac very good, also usb-hub very useful thing for me. MacOS interface also works fine.
I can recommend this monitor for Mac users.
