• Thinking of upgrading monitors as WFH more.

    Currently have 2 x 23" 1920x1080 on an Arctix Z2 clamped mount (which can take up to two 27" monitors).

    Would dual 27" 4K monitors be massive overkill? I regularly wish I had more screen real estate than these current monitors, and a single 4K monitor would be 2 x the existing screens, so dual 4K would be 4 x existing.

    Thinking of it in terms of 8 x 1920x1080 screens:-

    • Logs, code, docs, ticketing system, github, slack, email, personal/browser

    Iiyama XU272UHSU-B1 is ~£280 on scan. Laptop (Lenovo T480) looks like it can handle dual 4K (one via USB-C, one via HDMI).

    Or instead of two 4K monitors just buy one 43" 4K monitor (like the Phillips BDM4350UC) for £430?

    (Don't need anything gaming spec.)

  • Christ I'm doing all of my WFH on a 12" Surface Pro (no doubt our needs are different but I can't fathom that much screen haha!)
