3:2 is ideal, Microsoft's Surface Book series have it



It's a good baseline, but for big setups I think there's a point where you want the width to grow faster than the height.


Huawei's MateView 28.2" monitor too. It has a 3840 x 2560 resolution (which is slightly more than the 2560 x 2880 resolution of the LG DualUp), although sadly is not VESA mountable.


Its rather close to 16:10 which is more ubiquitous (I have 32" one funnily enough from LG from pre-covid times, and oh boy was I glad I bought when it came).

It feels so natural to my eyes, I definitely don't want vertical panel but 16:9 is pretty crap for any kind of work.


I believe I’d slightly prefer 16:11 if that existed, but it’s pretty close to 3:2.


3:2 is 16:10.66, so basically the same as 16:11.


As I said, it’s pretty close, but not the same. Looking at http://www.displaywars.com/1-inch-3x2-vs-1-inch-d%7B16x11%7D, I’d prefer the green rectangle (with more inches of course ;)).


...and the Acer Swift. A great screen size for programmers.
