Looking for advice on a monitor for office use. It will be accompanied by a 4K 27" in portrait mode for in-depth reading and coding, but i am a bit stuck on the main screen.
I was leaning towards an ultrawide 34" (Dell S3422DWG or LG Ultragear 34GN850) - they look kinda sexy to me.
However, I am now wondering if the ultrawide resolution is simply too low - should i be getting a 32" 4K instead for slightly cheaper? These look like "big slabs" to me - too much vertical height - but there isn't much point in going for the sexier ultrawide if it doesn't work as well. Function before form etc. Perhaps the "big slab" effect goes away once you sit down with it.
Trying to decide, i've done plenty of searching here, and elsewhere, but can't quite find anything addressing this point directly. Tried visiting places to see them in-person, but not many shops nearby. When i get there, it is hard to get a sense of reading text in a shop........
So, how do people feel about ultrawide for content consumption, emailing, etc.?
