Ultra, ultra wide monitors

Yeah, I’d buy one of these…

“Samsung has plans to make 32:9 uberwide displays, officially called ‘double full HD’ (DFHD), according to TFTCentral. The panel will be 49-inches wide, with a 3840x1080 resolution. It’s basically the equivalent of a pair of 27-inch 1080p displays, built as a single panel. The panel will feature an 1800R curvature, which is far curvier than what we see on 21:9 aspect ratio displays—and the extra curve makes sense given the size of the panel.”

Oh no.

I’ve been debating for the past couple of months about upgrading my monitor- It’s an older 60 Hz 1080p 26", and it’s been really tempting to retire it in favor of something like an ASUS ROG or ACER Predator. This isn’t helping.

How many would I need to make a full circle? :thinking:

There’s a joke in there somewhere.

It’s only ridiculous if you can’t afford it, and I find it horribly ridiculous.

I loved my Samsung 21:9!
If nobody had shown me the Oculus Rift, I would probably want this screen :slight_smile:

This is good for civ sims (Cessnas, Boeings, …), car sims and watching movies.

Where are all the 4:3 monitors? I thought that for watching movies there are televisions :slight_smile:
