So basically what you're complaining about is that high-end products are expensive? How many 4k IPS displays would you have found at the $500 price point even a few years ago?
- selfhoster11 5y agoHow is IPS high-end, exactly? It's table stakes for the modern-day. The technology is over a decade old, and TN is a strictly worse tech. If it isn't cheap, it should be cheap.
- sgjohnson 5y agoAnd ultimately this, there’s no way 4K 60Hz IPS panel could be described as “high end”. High end for 60Hz these days is OLED, IPS is the de-facto standard, and TN or VA aren’t worth buying.
- sgjohnson 5y agoIrrelevant, the point was that they are hardly “affordable”; if you’re going to get more than 1 external monitor, viewing angles are going to be a concern, and that leaves IPS as the only viable option. I’m personally running 3 24” external monitors, and I’m fairly sure that I’d have a viewing angle issue had my panels been TN.
- lostmsu 5y agoWhy are viewing angles concern with a multimonitor setup? Don't you turn every monitor to face you directly, so that the viewing angle is 0?
- rpdillon 5y agoThis is what I do with two 1080p monitors; I don't need IPS at all, since I'm always viewing them close to perpendicular to the screen. Has worked just fine for me the past couple of years.
