#32I still don't get why there aren't enough monitor panels that are 5K so they can fit with Macintosh's retina standard. What ends up happening is the scaling is done at an incorrect multiple so the dpi causes text to be blurry and not clear. I guess will have to stick with my LG Ultrafine for another year.

#3415:10 vs 16:9. I think that's enough difference to notice. 2560 x 1600 resolution is a bit disappointing though. Too bad 1:1 display isn't common.

#35I personally prefer ultra wide monitors for coding, can have split windows for multiple files, web browser, terminal, etc. I don't know why people like 3:2.

#3760hz refresh rate? That's unfortunate. Love the 3:2 aspect ratio. But I would expect at least 100 - 120hz these days.
Vast majority of 120+ Hz displays are 1080p only. That's for gaming. 4k at 120 Hz will need DisplayPort 2.0 and a powerful GPU to provide that bandwidth (40 Gbit/sec). Practically useless for its intended purpose (coding). Will increase the cost for no benefit. Waste of money.

#39I have a similar monitor at work. I find my adhd deals better with a single, wider monitor than with multiple monitors. That said, as I type, my keystrokes make the monitor shake. This is visibly irritating and I still haven't solved this issue. Looking at this monitor I'd sadly expect the same to happen.
