I wish they wouldn't make me scroll through two pages of animated backgrounds just to see the actual monitor. That said if I would spend this much on a monitor I would prefer the Samsung Odyssey Neo, which has a 5K resolution on a curved 49' display with a 240 Hz refresh rate, HDR 2.000 and G-Sync/Freesync. I guess the color space coverage is not as good though, and it's not as bright at 420 nits, though that's more than bright enough for me.

> 5K resolution on a curved 49' display with a 240 Hz refresh rate That is clearly a gaming monitor. No-one would want to do the sort of workloads this display is aimed at on something like that.

Toilet paper monitors. Can't be serious with that. Here's a good one: https://www.dell.com/en-us/work/shop/dell-ultrasharp-40-curved-wuhd-monitor-u4021qw/apd/210-aykx/monitors-monitor-accessories https://www.dell.com/en-us/work/shop/dell-ultrasharp-40-curv...

  I have several Dell monitors (writing this on a 27' 4k S2721QS), they're absolutely awesome for office work. Sometimes I crave for a higher refresh rate though, I have another ultrawide monitor with 144 Hz refresh rate and it really makes a difference, I find.

  Wow, that looks awesome. I like the Apple displays but I'm into seriously wide aspect ratio stuff lately. I was checking on some comically wide Samsung monitors however I wasn't impressed with the build quality.

  The 300 nits brightness kills this model for me. With my desk sitting next to a window, even with indirect sunlight anything below 400-500 nits starts having usability issues. I could lower the shades but I'd much rather let the sunlight in.

  Just 140 PPI? Can’t be serious with that. I have no idea how people can work with such low pixels density, really - I’ve tried and it's just impossible.

  only 60hz though, which might be a dealbreaker for some

I learned a long time ago to hit "Tech Specs" on the top right instead of sitting through the ridiculous marketing pages (especially since they have awful performance on Firefox for some reason).
