4K and Ultrawide monitors FAQ
Should I use a 4K or ultrawide monitor?
This is really a matter of preference. 4K means that a monitor will have better resolution than average to help details come through more crisply and is a great option for people who work on creative projects, love to watch movies or play video games. Meanwhile, anyone who tends to multitask between more than one program at a time will benefit from having an ultrawide monitor, which has the space to comfortably split the screen between multiple windows.
Does 4K really make a difference?
It can definitely be noticeable compared to lower pixel count displays. 4K literally means there are roughly 4,000 pixels running horizontally across a screen. Within TVs and monitors, this number is usually around 3840 x 2160 pixels and makes it so there is more clarity and crisp details in the images that are displayed compared to lower-pixel monitors.
What size monitor is considered ultrawide?
Any display with a 32:9 aspect ratio is considered to be ultrawide. This is basically two 16:9 screens put next to each other. Even though 21:9 monitors are large, they are not considered ultrawide but rather are seen as monitors with additional screen space.
Is ultrawide the same as 4K?
No, there are some 4K ultrawide monitors out there, but both features are not guaranteed to be on a monitor. Ultrawide refers to the aspect ratio of a display, while 4K refers to the amount of horizontal pixels that make up the display. In other words, ultrawide refers to the shape of the display, whereas 4K refers to the clarity of the imagery that the display produces.
