I still don't get why there aren't enough monitor panels that are 5K so they can fit with Macintosh's retina standard. What ends up happening is the scaling is done at an incorrect multiple so the dpi causes text to be blurry and not clear.<p>I guess will have to stick with my LG Ultrafine for another year.
if someone is looking for monitor, i can recommend the LG 28MQ780 [0], its 2x 2560x1440 stack on top of each other (2560x2880 in total), giving you 16:18 aspect ratio. i'm using one of these in portrait right and it's fantastic for coding.<p>[0] <a href="https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-28mq780-b-dualup-monitor" rel="nofollow">https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-28mq780-b-dualup-monitor</a>
I've read through this a few times and I'm still not sure what makes this specific for coders or how its different from other 4k monitors.<p>Can someone explain what makes this monitor better for the average coder?
Not sure if 3:2 aspect ratio is really optimized for programmers, but it might be something well appreciated by photographers since a lot of cameras (digital and film) use 3:2 aspect ratio.<p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_image_resolutions_used_in_digital_cameras" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_image_resolutions_used...</a>
I have a similar monitor at work. I find my adhd deals better with a single, wider monitor than with multiple monitors.
That said, as I type, my keystrokes make the monitor shake. This is visibly irritating and I still haven't solved this issue. Looking at this monitor I'd sadly expect the same to happen.
Looks like they’re using the same panels as the Huawei Mateview. Only these ones are VESA mountable. 3:2 at such high resolution, for me is a great experience. I’ll maybe grab one for my work desk to run vertically as I can’t do the same with the Mateview
I would definitely appreciate the extra vertical space but I wish it was 32 inches. I don’t know if many people can comfortably use the native resolution with 100% scaling on a 28 inch screen.
Pretty please, I'd like there to be more commercial e-ink monitors, not just the $2K Dasung Paperlike 253. And if it's not asking too much, color too.
Looks good but 10 kg/23 lbs? I see a Samsung IPS for <8 kg. 50" 4K Fire TV for 9.3 kg. I guess we don't really move monitors around once we start using them, esp if mounted, so perhaps a non-issue.
I personally prefer ultra wide monitors for coding, can have split windows for multiple files, web browser, terminal, etc. I don't know why people like 3:2.
15:10 vs 16:9. I think that's enough difference to notice.<p>2560 x 1600 resolution is a bit disappointing though.<p>Too bad 1:1 display isn't common.
