my stack is about 27" tall. i have a samsung neo 49" 1000R on the bottom. cheaper samsung 49" VA 1800R on top. the difference between this and a 55" ark is that the top portion can tilted down and more pixels. bottom monitor is used for gaming and both used for productivity. mine don't go off the desk. you want a decently sized desk for these size monitors
Yeah seems like a pretty good deal. I bought my QLED G9 for about $899. It has 240hz that I underclock to 120hz. I don't know how the QD OLED differs but it seems close to mine but newer.
The answer I was looking for. I have Samsung 49 non oled version and 77 C2. I have stopped gaming on 49 and game only on C2.
Hoping with 45 5k2k I can move back to monitor gaming setup.
I will say that even though it's not OLED, the monitor that you linked is also fantastic. I've been using it for about 60% work and 40% gaming (usually closer to 70/30, but I've been gaming more since I got the monitor) and I love it so far. The panel is a noticeable step up from any other monitor that I've owned up to this point
I'll never buy another Samsung monitor. I have a non-OLED 49" Samsung. It hasn't had a firmware update since, at the most, six months after I bought it a couple of years ago or so.
Sometimes, usually when switching inputs between my personal desktop and my work laptop, the screen will go completely black. Even the OSD won't display, although usually it'll stilloperate.
The only fix is to power the monitor off and back on, using either the non-visible OSD if it's working, or just using the power switch on the surge protector I have it connected to.
This happens anywhere from 4 to 16 times a week, I would guess.
Also, updating the firmware did not work as easily as it leads you to believe. It was a lot of trial and error.
I believe all the Dells have 5ms response time. My Samsung 49" (non-OLED) has 1ms, but I'll never buy another Samsung monitor. If you want reasons, just ask. There's a TCL 57R94 Dual 4K QD-MiniLED Monitor-57 Inches [https://www.tcl.com/global/en/monitors/57r94](https://www.tcl.com/global/en/monitors/57r94) which interests me, if I can justify it. Not available yet where I'm at, but we'll see.
I do love the display on my 49", for both work and the tiny amount of gaming I do, but I have complaints about other aspects of it, including switching back and forth between work and home computers.
The TCL, Dell, and larger (57" Samsung all have actual KVM switches, to my understanding. My main interest in the TCL is that it's not Samsung, and has 1ms response time. the "dual" 4K aspect is a bonus, to me, although who knows how my GPU would handle it. Technically it can, but we'd have to see.
I don't personally care about OLED on my computer monitor. I do for my TV.
My 49" works great for both my work and personal use. I do wish it had a built-in KVM so I didn't have to push separate buttons on the monitor, keyboard, and trackball, to switch, but 🤷♂️. Been using it for a year and nine months. I don't recommend Samsung, however (which is what I have, and I can't justify replacing it).
I was recently tempted by the Dell ones which have a built-in KVM, but I wanted 1ms response, and I think all theirs had 5ms.
I do wish Microsoft would use AI to figure out how people on modern equipment use windows. No, I don't ever want a window to be partially off-screen, et cetera. But that's not specific to ultra-wides and at least there are keyboard shortcuts to fix it.

Huge, immersive OLED, but 800R curve distorts productivity.
