The MacBook Pro’s refresh rate is 60Hz and you can find monitors that connect to your MacBook with refresh rates as high as 144Hz which comes in handy when you’re gaming or editing high frame rate video.
Another advantage to using a USB-C monitor with your MacBook Pro is higher refresh rates. The MacBook Pro’s native resolution is 3072 x 1920 and when you’re working on video edits or images, that 4K capability makes a huge difference in clarity especially when color grading. Yes, the display is fantastic but bigger is usually better when dealing with graphics, video, images, and definitely when gaming.
You may be wondering why I would need a USB-C monitor for my MacBook Pro.
