I went for a single 16:9 (so not wide or ultrawide) 43" 4K monitor:-
It has the same pixel size as my old dual 23" 1920x1080 setup, and the 43" is slightly less wide as than the two 23" mounted horizontally) but obviously no bezel in the middle and twice the height/pixels vertically. I use it at 100% scaling from ~70cm away, just as I did the old setup.
Acer DM431K.
Originally I was thinking dual 27" 4K monitors mounted vertically but opted for this instead. 4K in a 27" monitor would just have too small pixel size for me, so I'd end up scaling things, and then there's little point paying for a 4K monitor if you just upscale things on it.

Talking of ultrawide monitors, has anyone ever tried a 49 inch?! I currently use 3 x 27 inch monitors, two as primary displays and 1 as an email and teams screen. I can never quite get the two 27s positioned so that they are of equal use, so wondering if I go to one massive monitor with zoning instead.
If it makes any difference I pretty much use excel and things like that, so not worried about colour or quality to a huge degree, but screen real estate is important.
