Artists working on high resolution images who are tired of constantly zooming in and out.

For me <3 its probably 8k2k - so twice current resolution

more data that can be clearly displayed at once is usually better. I used the G9 to replace 4 monitors and I was still cramped for space sometimes.

i have the neo g9 and while it looks amazing, the text clarity could be a lot better and pixel density isn't the best for non-media use. 8k would help both of those things. but...... then again, 8k would be hard to drive, so i think a solid 4k NORMAL SHAPE/SIZE/FLAT monitor is what a lot of people want, but they all keep making massive curved turds that nobody is asking for. i decided to wall mount this time instead of clamp arm, so i can move desk back a hair and get even more distance and completely free my desk top, but being ultraside and curved, i might as well have 3 monitors on my desk, because the curve is so aggressive that it hangs over the desk and is no different than running triple monitor sitting on the desk. it's really annoying. also, being so wide, if i put side monitors to each side, they'll be like nearly 90 degrees to the right/left, which is not ergo at all. if i buy a second g9 (non-neo) to match this one to put above it, i can't angle it down because it would make a gap between the monitors, a big one, thanks to the curve lol. if it were flat, you could angle the top one down without a gap. i just hate everything about it, but it's still the best looking monitor i've seen in game so far. (i also own the 48" LG ultragear gaming OLED)

gimme 4k, 19:10, full array backlight with similar backlight density as the neo g9, 240hz, flat, glossy, and we're in business

I buy these for my business and they are stunning IMO.

they look nice for productivity. i do have two LG dual-up vertical monitors which look great and work well for productivity. i'm just trying to find the ideal does-it-all monitor that i can game on, but also do productivity. this wasn't a problem in the past, but right now, to get one, you often sacrifice in the other. (due to sub-optimal sub-pixel layout, lower DPI for high refresh gaming monitors, ultrawide trend, curved trend, anti-glare trend, etc)

8k only exist so movie theater can separate themselves from the rest Soo... It's made for stupid rich people who really like buying expensive shit to make the fell better about themselves

I don't think you realize how obvious that projection is.
