I have the 57" version, 7680x2160. It's ... indispensable ... all my Konsoles, app windows, etc. all on one screen with no overlaps.
Got it on a Samsung sale for ~$1500 IIRC, one of the best upgrades I'd ever done.
- bbor 2y agoSame, though I'm also on 49" (5120x1440). They're selling them for extra cheap on Amazon with extended (36mo) warranties because they're prone to breaking, but I had the Samsung contractors out here this month and they did a great job fixing mine that randomly died one day -- for free! If you're a chill soul, I'd say it's worth the risk. I sound like a shill, so Samsung plz hmu. $999 for a beautiful OLED monitor that fits a terminal, a browser, and 4 (font size 8...) 100col text editor windows is a gamechanger.
- kennethrc 2y ago> OLED I use mine for productivity only (I don't game at all) and it seems the consensus is OLED's no good for things like Kconsole/xterm (-style) windows and general text readability, though.
- bbor 2y agoHuh, interesting! The pure blacks are gorgeous to me, but it’s possible I don’t know what I’m missing. Never noticed a problem with size 8 font
