So ultrawide monitors are great for gaming and watching videos but are better than dual screen setups for productivity purposes? Here are some of my thoughts after testing out my ultrawide vs dual screen for the best productivity setup.
Some of my monitor picks whether you prefer to go dual screen or ultrawide:
* 27" | 2560x1440 *
BenQ GW2765HT amzn.to/2cbEwPK
Dell U2715H amzn.to/2cNyQd6 (amazon) | bit.ly/2dgUVnq (dell)
* 34" | Curved | 3440x1440 *
Dell U3415W amzn.to/29Xc12g (amazon) | bit.ly/2dgdsvF (dell)
LG 34UC88-B (with FreeSync) amzn.to/2abaf0r
Acer Predator X34 (with G-Sync) amzn.to/29Xd5Do
Or if those are a bit out of your price range a pair of smaller/lower resolution displays might be more to your liking:
* 24" | 1920x1200 *
Dell U2415 amzn.to/2cfKptD
* 34" | Flat | 2560x1080 *
LG 34UM68-P amzn.to/29Y1g2N
* 29" | Flast | 2560x1080 *
LG 29UM68-P amzn.to/2cWyELp

David Zhang how's the productivity with regards to pixelation (office work mainly). I bought one lg34" uc79g-b and returning it as the pixeleted view was a total let down. Have ordered ki 34uc98 , which is higher resolution. Waiting for that to arrive.

Another advantage of dual monitor setup is that in meetings you can share only one of your monitor and keep the other secret from viewers. You cant just do that easily in ultrawide setup without going all the hassle like choosing the portion and sharing in zoom app. Also there is chance that some of the video conf apps don't support portion or region sharing..

If you want do something like that having ultra wide, just use picture-by-picture which is available in most recent monitors. So having 2 monitors 21:9 you can have even 4 separated screens.

In most content creation tasks it is also extremely useful to have one monitor not running non-standard resolutions, scaling, or aspect ratios. While your video editor, code editor, web designer, etc. might love an ultra-wide high-resolution screen... often you need to just see your video, site, program, etc. running on a standard 1920x1080 screen at 100%. I've seen a lot of developers working at some odd resolution only to find the image/form/screen/etc. is clipped or has scrollbars to 90% of people looking at it or things look odd because the screen is scaled to 125% or something. Advantage of the dual monitor is you can put a standard 1080p monitor their, scale it to 100%, and quickly see what your work looks like to most people. Further, you can change the scaling to quickly see what it looks like for other DPI settings without affecting your "working area".

Great video! Another thing that just occurred to me (I'm thinking about upgrading to an ultrawide monitor) is that I wouldn't be able to "share monitor" when I'm webcasting with my clients without them seeing everything on my monitor. Using my current 2-monitor setup, I only display the one I want them to see (such as my PowerPoint presentation) while I have my notes and other confidential information on my primary monitor. I believe there's a way to "share application" while webcasting, but it means I would need to keep designating the specific app each time I change from one to another, which I don't need to do when I'm sharing everything on my second monitor.

I think you nailed the perfect setup - 1 34" Ultrawide for stuff like timelines (music / video type work) so you can avoid bezel distractions, and 1 other monitor, like a 24" next to it for app separation. I have dual 24" 1440s and losing 30+% screen space is not ideal. Having dual 34" would be too much. But having at least one screen with a lot more horizontal width is a no-brainer for productivity - just with the added monitor to right like you have.

great video, really helped me. one thing that wasn't addressed though - it looks like you're defining productivity as 'how many things can I do at once' but IMO, productivity is decreased when you're multitasking too frequently. I think back to one of my coworkers who told me that he only has one computer screen and creates virtual desktops that he switches between, because he is able to monotask and therefore be more productive more easily (he was a very bright software engineer). this makes a lot of sense to me as for my old job, I was by far the most productive when I was limited to a single, small screen (the job was pretty basic and required a lot of writing and batch tasks). For my new career, I need to have multiple things on the screen that I cross reference frequently. I think for this, my productivity would probably be highest with an ultrawide, but my personal preference is still leaning towards dual monitors. it's a really tough decision!

Connect two hdmi\displayport cables from your GPU to monitor, go to settings, turn on PBP - and now you have two monitors on one screen - you can even watch youtube in fullscreen on one half of the screen. (at least it works that way on my LG34UM68).

will your solution work for my below scenario ?? I have a surface pro, which i want to connect to two additional monitors (laptop screen is too small for productivity). Now i am thinking to buy a wide screen monitor like above one, which seems to accepts two inputs. So essentially I want to use one wide screen monitor as two separate physical monitors. I know lg provides split screen software, which is similar but i can't do full screen any app on those split areas. To make two applications in full screen monitor, i need two physical monitors. Wondering, if this monitor can solve that problem ?Two physical monitor setup, helps me also keep many small apps in whatever way i want on the secondary monitor part. split screen does not allow this so easily like an actual separate monitor screen.

In my experience dual 16:9 works best for programming/productivity. I had two LG ultrawide monitors but I couldn't get them in a comfortable position where they fit into my view. Side by side was way too wide and top and bottom was awkward for my neck and workflow. Two 16:9 monitors were a good size and I think dual monitors are better than one ultrawide because you don't have to deal with the annoying snap features in Windows and its easier to put secondary windows on the second monitor.

32:9 monitors are way better imo. It's exactly the same as 2* 16:9 monitors, except you have no bezel. You gain a lot of flexibility that way as you can use a window in the middle and two vertical windows on the sides for example, and if you like you can still divide it up into multiple monitors.

Thanks for your opinion here. I have a very complex situation and decided to go to the dual-monitor setup. Reason is, that for my day job I need a monitor hooked up to my Dell laptop and have the ability to use my hackintosh on the side on the other monitor. In this case I use my LG 38" Ultrawide for the laptop and the Gigabyte Aorus 27" for the Hackintosh. If I switch to my photography side job then I use the 38"-Ultrawide for photo editing and the Gigabyte for anything else. And for Gaming under Windows 10, I use the Gigabyte as the main for games and the Ultrawide for anything else.

Just got one question: how do you do these "smooth camera drives", like in the beginning of the video (hope you know what I mean). Somehow trying to recreate it, only got a Nexus 5X as a camera though. Would be nice to know! :)

True true! Maybe an ultrawide + 1440p144Hz dual monitor setup would be ideal!? lol. For those "slider" shots. I just use a tripod and slide the center column up/down but I've done fake slider shots before just by sliding my camera across a spare table before to some success. You just have to put your camera on something like paper or felt pads to get just enough friction for a smooth pull. Hopefully that helps.

That way I won’t have to stare most of the time at the bezel in the center (like in the case of dual monitors) and avoid eye fatigue due to too wide field of view (in the case of one ultra view + regular)

Good video. I have two 27" 2K 16:9's. I'm thinking of doing a setup like yours with a 34" ultrawide 21:9 paired with one 27" 2K 16:9. I'm totally on board with your logic and rationale on why that works as the best setup.

You can just split an ultrawide into 2 monitors (either half-half or one in the corner). You run two cables from the PC to the ultrawide and you're good to go. Make sure the UW supports picture by picture though (PBP)

I came to this video for almost the same reason. I don't need the wallpaper but I need advice how I can put 2 different wallpapers. I got a main 21:9 monitor and a 16:9. Can you help me? The auto-scaling doesnt work, so I want to put in 2 different backrounds.

I'll take dual monitor for the 49% more screen real estate. I can live with the Bezel. Also, if one monitor dies I still have the other. If ultrawide could give me the same screen real estate as dual I'd take it but I am not going to pay the same price for 49% less screen.

Programming monitor? What? If you mean a Monitor which has a swivel which allows it to go vertically instead of horizontally, any monitor could constitute as a "Programming Monitor" since most monitors support custom mounts which would allow them to achieve this.

I actually really like your set up with the ultrawide and regular monitor setup. I am running a dual monitor setup right now just using regular monitors and it's truly amazing for multitasking. I have a few thoughts for those interested in going for a dual monitor setup. I would recommend getting two monitors that have little to no bezels. I ran a near bezel less and bezel setup before. At first I didn't notice it too much, but you do start to notice it over time. Once you do, you can't un-notice it. Going near bezel less also reduces the amount of bezel/dead space when going between monitors. For those of you who play games on your PC, another huge thing to consider is the limits or capabilities of your video card. For example, I have a 1660 Ti. While it is possible to run stuff at 1440p, it is best suited for 1080p. Because of this, both of my monitors are 1080p monitors. Hope this helps someone and I hope it saves you all some money by not spending on a monitor that you can't fully take advantage of.
