At home I have my 23" monitor next to a 23" TV, and I use both at the same time. Still, I was impressed by the size of it.

What can I say, I'm easy to impress.

Oh, I have no doubt I'd be impressed with it as well, after all that's a lot of seamless screen space in one monitor.

Actually, those type of monitors are quite up my alley, i'd take peripheral vision over resolution, refresh and all other bells and whistles any time (not that I'd mind any of those as well), but I'm still mostly using 1080p projector on really big screen, so I'm kinda stuck with it for a while.

I'd take an ultra wide monitor (but 1440p, not 1080p) over one of those Samsungs (and LG, because it looks like them want to give it a go too). I don't need my monitor to be so wide.

But that doesn't mean that ultra wides aren't getting some love from manufacturers. Later this year, AUO will launch a 35" model with 512-zone FALD backlight, 200Hz refresh rate, 90% DCI-P3 coverage and 600 cd/m2 brightness (1000 cd/m2 peak brightness for HDR). The only "downside" is that it's VA (sorry Pemalite). And LG should be already producing a 34" IPS model with a 144Hz refresh rate and HDR 400. So things are advancing too in that front.
