I seen a few adverts for this and it seems somewhat interesting but I also have quite a lot of concerns with neck strain from having one monitor too high or two low… which seems to be a common problem with monitor stacking (or very large monitors in portrait orientation).
Oh that’s a shame! I would personally avoid a monitor that needed custom software to run…
Yeah it’s definitely on the large side!
I think the second half could probably be halved - that would be perfect for my LG5K, same width, just with an additional 50% on the bottom (perhaps with that bit even being a little bit curved).
I would use about 65% of it as a standard monitor, then use the lower 35% for things I am monitoring or even for watching podcasts or something.
I would personally hate having a thick bezel in the join
Sorry, this was an assumption from my part, not an affirmation. I should have wrote it differently.
I said it because I saw in the past other monitors that require you to install some software in order to be able to split large screen and make it behave like 2 monitors.
Maybe in this one it’s built-in, but I didn’t lookup on it.
I love that setup because allows me to configure the montiors as i want, without software, just rotating them
Plus I love to use monitors on the vertical for coding.
I wonder if a large OLED TV would be a neat idea… where you just use the central strip and blackout the rest… if it’s OLED the black areas will have the pixels switched off so shouldn’t consume energy.
Actually I tried my power meter on the TV a little which ago and the power consumption fluctuated, I might try another test with the above in mind one day. (I have a curious mind! )
