I’ve been using my Dell Ultrasharp 27" for years and years, and I usually spec Dell Ultrasharp for clients when a “computer” monitor is needed. If you’re doing high-end photo or video work that’s another story because calibration and accuracy may matter. My wife has a fancier BenQ for photo editing that is quite decent.
These days you can still find 16x10 aspect ratio monitors but not many, and possibly not in the native resolution you want. A lot of LCD panel production has moved to UHD (3840x2160) but internal scaling is usually pretty good if you want to run at a lower res to save eyestrain!
