Ideal Monitor Rotation for Programmers (2021)

In practice, the brightness and refresh rate have not been an issue in a software development / home office setting. It has been more than enough.

For gaming it isn't as desirable. HDR also gives the brightness a boost for media so it is plenty fine for that too.

The only thing that I found annoying is lack of inputs. There is 1DP and 1TB, and 2 HDMI (60hz). I wanted at least 2DP and 2TB to be super useful with a dock and a few other inputs.

The size is perfect however.

If LG release an OLED version better brightness, you bet i'll be ordering that too. It has been so ideal, the ROI has been better than any monitor setup i've used.

This is really useful. Maybe I'll just yolo it and give it a shot. Display panel advancement doesn't seem to be as reliably "it'll come next cycle" anyway haha. Thank you for your input!

I don't think you'll regret it :) Personally, for web/dev/youtube/... I don't know how it took us SO LONG to get to this display dimension, aspect/resolution.

It seems so obvious once you start using it.
