It is possible that the trend for new monitors is going over to ultra-wide monitors. For hobby or work, they are tools that allow you to take advantage of the width of the screen very well, working once and for all with several applications open at the same time and at maximum capacity. It is the equivalent of using two 27-inch Thunderbolt displays in parallel.
The option you just presented Dell in this sense, it is a 49 inch curved monitor. The first impression is a spectacular monitor. This monitor, rated QHD, has a not inconsiderable resolution of 5120 x 1440.
In the words of the manufacturer, the product is defined as:
The world's first 49-inch curved dual QHD monitor, for an immersive work experience that increases productivity.
Equivalent to two 27-inch QHD monitors, you get a brilliant view, multitasking, and USB-C connectivity.
The 32: 9 aspect ratio offers a panoramic experience, while the screen curvature allows for a constant focal length across the screen, to help improve eye comfort.
Another relevant aspect of this type of monitor is the concentration of cables. By connecting the monitor cable to the Mac, eIt is possible to power up to a 15-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar via the USB-C connection. On the other hand, it is possible to use functions of television, if we connect two Macs to the monitor.
View content from two different sources with Picture-by-Picture (PBP). This feature splits the screen into two sides, similar to a dual monitor setup.
Easily switch between two different Macs and edit content with a keyboard and mouse with Keyboard Video Mouse (KVM)
On the negative side, the behavior of the screen. Does not reach the P3 color gamut that offers the LG UltraFine recommended by the Apple monitor. In turn, the contrast ratio is 1000: 1 and its angle of view is 178 degrees. The panel IPS offers response times between 8 and 5 ms. We can buy this monitor from October 26 at the price of $ 1.699,99. It is expected to receive it in Europe shortly.
