How does this compare to two regular monitors stacked on a monitor stand?
- dixie_land 4y agono bezel comes to mind. also easier to mount than try to align two perfectly
- Gualdrapo 4y agoOnly one image (unless you use the split feature) with no gaps in between, and only power input.
- alanbernstein 4y agoAlso easier to reposition as a single unit.
- mbreese 4y agoThis is basically two 1440p panels attached together... so not too different if you have really thin bezels. But what I'm curious about is if this acts as one monitor or two? None of the images show windows that overlap the middle of the screen. So is it one or two "virtual" screens? If it is one virtual screen, I might think of it as more useful to me in the 18:16 orientation.
- parineum 4y agoIf it's not actually two monitors, power toys' fancyzones[1] can duplicate that behavior in Windows. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/fancyzones https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/fancyzone...
- iLoveOncall 4y agoIt is two monitors, you can plug 2 devices at the same time.
- aviditas 4y agoIt is one panel and has an internal kvm so you can use two devices at the same time.
- cehrlich 4y agoYou can run it as two 16:9 monitors or one 16:18 monitor
- da768 4y agoThe slideshow just below shows it used as a single monitor.
- tpmx 4y agoThere is zero bezel since it's one panel. https://www.lg.com/us/images/features/mnt-dualup-ergo-28mq780-07-2-3-designer-desktop.jpg https://www.lg.com/us/images/features/mnt-dualup-ergo-28mq78...
- causality0 4y agoThat image is not evidence it is one panel, especially since the image on the screen is photoshopped and not a picture of the live monitor.
- JimRoepcke 4y agoIt’s one panel. I have this monitor.
- maximus-decimus 4y agoMore flexibility when splitting stuff? With 2 screens, I often found I wanted a main thing in the middle and a small window on each side, but that's really ackward if you have a bezzle. Then again, that makes more sense for an ultra-wide than an ultra-high monitor in my opinion.
- zamadatix 4y agoFrom someone that does a 3x2 setup I'll add one downside: on my split setup I run the bottom row 90 degrees from the desk while the upper ones are angled down and slightly so that both are viewed straight on when glanced at. Not having a physical split like this makes it so the top and bottom will always seem angled. I suppose if it were curved it'd solve that problem but then it would come with assumptions about how far away you sit and create new problems like glare streaks.
