So, yesterday I saw in person one of those Samsung 49" monitors, and my God that thing is large! It's hilarious. If I had one of those, I would end with neck pain, like if I had watched a tennis match from the net.

I can't believe they've sold enough of those to make a bigger, 5120x1440, model... or maybe it didn't sell enough and Samsung is trying again with a bigger res to see if that changes something.

That would be ultra wide. Not a fan. Needs to be 5120x2880 to retain 16:9. And needs to be 120hz and 10-bit at a minimum going forward. :P

You do actually get used to bigger display sizes though, my next monitor will probably be 40-something inches.

That's ultra-ultra wide, as it's 32:9 instead of the 21:9 of the usual ultras. Actually, there are new terms for those monitors: the actual 3840x1080 model is called DFHD (dual full HD) and the 5120x1440 will be... you guessed it right, DQHD (Dual quad HD).

But I guess there's a market for it. It would be like two 2560x1440 monitors glued together.

40" 4K HDR 144Hz G-sync would be amazing.

Be happy with the 27" ones that will, finally, launch at the end of this month.
