        I just went to the spare 42” television and stood in front of it like a monitor… feels weird
        Personally most people might be more comfortable with an ultra wide 43” rather than a 16:9

          I put a 50" eko TV on the desk for couple of days to test and got myself a C2 42. No regrets. Especially since at night and weekends it ends up becoming my TV and gaming monitor for which 16:9 is a better option. I still use a second 24" display.

          Stepping up to a 43” was a shock, took a while to adjust. But going from this to a 48” really didn’t feel that different. So 27 to 43 is going to feel the weirdest to most people I’d say

        For productivity, absolutely not. Unless you enjoy working in dank caves. I had an oled, forget working in a sunny office with a window open. I sold the OLED, mainly because seometimes I like to watch sport/movies on the weekend, and not just after work in winter, when it was dark enough to enjoy.

            @3v3rqu357: It's really not that bad, working with it in MacOS out of the box is great (as a software eng), and there are a bunch of Cleartype fixes you can use to greatly mitigate it in Windows. At least for me the complaints are a bit of a nothingburger

            • [Deactivated] on 15/02/2023 - 16:50

              @drogog: It's a relative metric, and being able to half-ass it back to acceptable isn't much of a counter to the fact it's a current flaw in current panels. Don't handwave it away.

                @[Deactivated]: As I said, it's a bit a nothingburger - the text on the C2 looks better than the text on my Dell U2415s. I don't even notice any issues. If you are using the panel for mixed use, it is worth any minor drawbacks on text rendering.

                • [Deactivated] on 16/02/2023 - 09:36

                    @[Deactivated]: If it was such a big issue, it must boggle your mind why the panel is so incredibly popular - so much so that every thread on Ozbargain for a 40+ inch display is littered with LG C2 comments. Must make you wonder how everyone saying "Oonce you go OLED, you will never go back" can be so wrong.

                      @drogog: Having owned a superior sony oled, I understand and am willing to admit oleds flaws more readily than you are. To the point I sold it, because no, oled is not always the best option.

                      Theres a ridiculous amount of copium from people that have never used the product, or people who want to pretend the thing they bought is superior to anything else in every concievable way.

                      Im sure its good. It might even be okay. Its far, far from "the best". As i said, its a relative metric. It doesnt matter how good it actually is at "x thing" if almost anything else is actually better at "x thing".

                      Again, you completely ignore that the text issue is mentioned in almost every half thorough review. You don't get to hand wave it away because you don't like it, and its good at other things, and you, personally, aren't discerning enough to notice a difference. I mean, some people are perfectly happy with 60hz. Are they objectively correct that 100hz plus makes no difference? No. But I'm sure they have strong feelings and stuff.

                      The fact remains, for productivity (especially if you choose not to work in a windowless/shuttered cave) there are literally, inarguably, far superior options. Cheaper options.

      As with most "LED-backlit LCD monitor / TFT active matrix" monitors it has the standard 60Hz refresh rate. There are other options in 4K in this size.

    • entropysbane on 16/02/2023 - 06:57

      Well, I have the U2723QE. A great 4K monitor for work purposes. Very happy with it. Sometimes I think I should have got the U3223QE.

      this is an amazing price for the U4323QE in comparison to the 32. And you rarely see ultrasharps with such a discount.
      But I admit I would worry about pixel density, which would be an important thing for your typical ultrasharp buyers. On that matter, Dell is about to release a 32 inch 6K ultrasharp IPS display, which I suspect the ultrasharp market would prefer over this 43 inch.

  • [Deactivated] on 15/02/2023 - 09:01

    Looks good, although MST doesn’t work in mac so you won’t get the multi display mode

    • browser on 15/02/2023 - 09:52
      +1

      Don't really understand the need for MST, if a manufacturer wants to build a monitor to support multiple streams, just build that into the monitor. Why require the source to also implement MST?

      • [Deactivated] on 15/02/2023 - 10:20

        The computer operating system needs to understand how to see multiple monitors in one connection.
        Without an expensive PIP hardware which defeats the purpose, the only options are:
        MST
        Thunderbolt (I think it could daisy chain)

        • [Deactivated] on 15/02/2023 - 11:11

          I'm just imagining a monitor with some cute tiny displayport cables daisy chaining on the back of it. Like some 70's phone switchboard.

      • Bedgrub on 15/02/2023 - 19:38

        On paper it's nice, but you only cut down on one cord. If you need a second display for a laptop, you can use a dock, or plug another monitor in. So I guess it saves about three seconds in your day.

      • airtime on 15/02/2023 - 21:39

        The most useful feature of MST is daisy chaining monitors together.

        This allows you to implement a multi-monitor setup without the need of a hub or multiple connections to your computer. Take your laptop, plug in a single USB-C connector and have power, network, peripherals and monitors connected.

        As has been mentioned by another poster, MacOS does not support MST for some unknown reason. Interestingly, it is not a limitation of the hardware - it is a software limitation. If you install Microsoft Windows on a suitable Intel Mac, you get MST support.

      • browser on 15/02/2023 - 22:04
        -1

        I still think that MST is solution looking for a problem. Have not seen any daisy chain setup in person or heard of anyone complaining they can't daisy chain monitors.

        Precisely why Apple doesn't bother to implement.

        In all practical sense, people requiring multiple monitors would have the proper hardware to run them.

        • Nom on 16/02/2023 - 16:06

          Have not seen any daisy chain setup in person

          For a long time, laptops had a single mini display port for video - if you wanted multiple monitors, MST was the only option without a dock.
          And when you did have a dock, guess how the dock drove it's two outputs from the laptop's single ?
          MST.

          Until USB C became common, MST was everywhere.

          Have not seen any daisy chain setup in person

          That's ok, there's about a bazillion of them in use with corporate laptops all over the place. You can't have looked very hard 😁

          In all practical sense, people requiring multiple monitors would have the proper hardware to run them.

          What ?
          MST is the proper hardware to run them if you don't have multiple video outputs.

      • entropysbane on 16/02/2023 - 06:46

        It is my pet Mac hate (although over 35 years of using macs I’ve had few).
        It is because Apple thinks rather than DP you should use Thunderbolt for daisy chaining multiple displays.
        Now it is no doubt technically better. Thunderbolt is also less fiddly to set up.
        Trouble is for most people it isn’t practically better. Most people only connect one display to their laptop so MST isn’t relevant anyway. But if they are wanting to connect two displays, MST is all they need, as they are not daisy chaining six displays for Thunderbolt to be necessary, and besides, there just isn’t many Thunderbolt displays, and they are very expensive.

        The hate part is it doesn’t have to be an either or proposition. It just software on the ‘puter but Apple wants more widespread uptake of Thunderbolt. It hasn’t happened as consumers can’t afford it.

      • Nom on 16/02/2023 - 16:02

        Don't really understand the need for MST, if a manufacturer wants to build a monitor to support multiple streams, just build that into the monitor.

        When it's built into the monitor, it's called MST.

    I wish there were 16:9 monitors somewhere between 32 and 42 inch. A 36-38 inch 4K would be perfect IMO for mixed office/gaming/media use, and still fit on most desks.

    • John Doh on 15/02/2023 - 10:00

      I am on a 42 and feel 43 to 44 would have been a lil bit better but 48 a bit large. I think these are totally subjective.

      • TrevorX on 15/02/2023 - 22:23

        Not really - 43" 4k is the same as a 21.5" 1080P screens in terms of pixel pitch, 46" is around the same as a 23". So if you want to work at 100% scaling (ie no scaling)… and you do… Then those are the sizes you need for 4k at 90 - 100cm distance. If you have a big enough room/desk you can go bigger and move it further away without having to squint at tiny fonts.

        I mean sure, it's subjective whether or not people enjoy either squinting or scaling, but if you actually want a good experience, those are just the facts.

        • John Doh on 16/02/2023 - 08:44

          Subjective and good experience facts are oxymoron. Scaling on windows is nice. In fact, its better to have a larger display and scale the text a bit larger on OLED displays because in that case you wont notice that sub pixel whatever. I have a 80cms depth desk and we sit on each side of the table, so i guess thats 90 cms? Its good enough. But I have seen FPS gaming was more immersive when I tried a 50" TV at the same distance. The mountains at the distance when playing the game zero dawn actually felt like real mountians at the distance but didnt get the same immersive feeling on 42". But on 50" when using windows apps, I had to really lift my head up and sides which aint the case on 42". Hence my decision to get 42" over 48. Will I go any lower after using this size display? Absolutely not. But gaming on large displays is fun only if the game supports FOV adjustments.

    • TrevorX on 15/02/2023 - 22:23

        • TrevorX on 16/02/2023 - 19:06

          Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm looking for 43-45" 4k or ~60" 6k (ie 50% wider, same height as 4k). I want the same pixel pitch at 100% scaling and don't want to lose any of those 2160 vertical pixels (I do a lot of work with documents, tables and code where vertical screen height is incredibly useful). Yeah, I'm particular, but that's cause I know my work flow and what will work best for it 🙂

      • John Doh on 16/02/2023 - 08:51

        • TrevorX on 16/02/2023 - 19:08

          The price doesn't bother me (I'd pay $4k for what I want in a heartbeat), it's the fact that nothing exists that meets my needs. Samsung just released yet another 43" 4k flat screen yesterday. So unimaginative…

    • Gusper on 15/02/2023 - 10:12

      Why? Auto focus not functioning in your eyes. Holding the same focal length for long periods is actually bad for your eyes.

      • TrevorX on 15/02/2023 - 22:30

        Because a 43" 4k at 1m has easily readable text in the middle of the screen, but uncomfortable to read text at the sides, meaning you find yourself moving your active window/document into the middle rather than spreading things out evenly. I've had a 43" 4k screen for about seven years and I love it, but from the moment I got it I've wanted to replace it with a curved alternative (which has never materialised).

      • 1st-Amendment on 16/02/2023 - 07:09

        Holding the same focal length for long periods is actually bad for your eyes.

        So take a break every once in while, you know exactly like every bit of WHS training tells you. Having to adjust your focus multiple times per second for hours on end is worse, and there is no way to avoid this with a large flat screen…

      • titewod on 16/02/2023 - 09:57

        Try reading this…
        https://www.bestbuy.com/discover-learn/benefits-of-a-curved-…

        The most obvious reason is that all pixels on a curved screen will take up approximately the same area in our field of view.

        The visible area a pixel takes up in our vision decreases at a rate proportional to the square of the distance from our eyes (^2). This means that when using a flat screen close to our eyes, the pixels at the edges are muuuuuch smaller than the ones directly in front of us. This makes for a terrible viewing experience.

    • entropysbane on 16/02/2023 - 07:16

      I am not sure the ultrasharp audience, typically photographers etc, would be interested in a curved screen.

    It's 7cm wider and 16cm taller than my current monitor, just put some cardboards around it to mock it up, it's massive at desk distance.

    It seems the width is not the issue, but the height, requires quite a bit of up and down movement. I guess can position certain windows at eye level, less viewed windows at top and bottom.

      The panel maybe, but Dell has USB-C support, the monitor is literally a docking station, you can connect all the peripherals (keyboard, mouse, webcam, network, conference speaker, USB drive) to the monitor, with only 1 USB-C cable going to the laptop, which also carries power. Not to mention build in KVM, you can switch input and display between laptop and desktop by pressing a hot key.

      Philips monitor is not in the same league.

          True, the docking feature is probably more appealing to laptop users, convenience aside, it overcomes limited USB ports problem common on laptops.

          For a single desktop setup, the Philips should work just as well.

          • hamwhisperer on 15/02/2023 - 11:00

            @browser: Both my 32" displays have docking now and I love it, but one of them was half the price of the other.

            It does make setting up WFH in the dining table dead easy with a docking monitor I won't deny.

            @browser: But this can be found in a $50 USB-C hub (which can be taped to the back of a monitor if you want the seamless appearance. Don't see how it's worth more than $100 to have it built in. The hub will also have SD card/ethernet.

        Yeah, that sounds like $500 worth. Or, you know, you could buy a $10 usb hub that does the same thing.

        I have a 438p1 that I use with a laptop for wfh.

        The dell would be faster at switching between two pc's. If we're being honest tho… I'm only doing that when I'm slacking off. The philips also has PIP functionally that might solve the 'issue'.

        If you're determined to be switching, the philips has a usb hub. Between bluetooth and wifi I don't have a need for the hub and don't use it. So to connect a laptop i plug in a charging cable and hdmi.. So, one extra cable than i would use on the dell. I need to use the switch button on my mx keys and mx master too though.

        Usb c is great but not always a big practical difference. Obviously ymmv but i prefer saving $600.

        I'm not saying the dell is bad. Just floating the info for everyone to consider before purchasing.

        Personally i'd consider an lg oled at the price of the dell but eventually i would forget about hd sentinel preventing screensavers or my avr idle screen and end up with burn in.

        PS: the 438p1 plays nicely with a ps5 at 4k, which the previous 4350UC did not. Not sure about the dell but without hdr it possibly doesn't work.

      With 120 Hz G-Sync compatibility or Freesync.

      This only has 75 Hz max.

    Damn, I could have used that… I spent almost as much on a 2nd hand alienware 38inch that was a year or 2 old :(.

  • NuclearWessels on 15/02/2023 - 10:17

    Does anyone know if the screen split allows custom ratios I.e two screens with one screen using 67% and the other using 33%?

      You can use "Dell Display Manager" on Windoes to manage how you would like to split your srcreen from preset templates or customise the template yourself.

        Yep chop up your screen however you want

        It also works on macs with ultrasharps. I use it in my U2723QE.

    This is a good monitor, for productivity use only pretty much. For other uses, it has a very limited gamut (85% sRGB), fixed refresh (60Hz) and no support for HDR at all.

    Anyone else ever look back and wonder how we ever got anything done with a 15 or 17in CRT?

      Dunno how they lived, not having OzB open on a second monitor.

      17" CRT

      Were you a millionaire in the 90s or something?

        paid the equivalent of AUD900 for a 17" IIyama monitor with Diamondtron screen in '98… those were the days… ;-)

    • browser on 15/02/2023 - 10:56

      Because back in the days you don't have to do 10 things at the same time.
