Dell Introduces World's First 49-Inch Curved Ultra-Wide Monitor With 5120x1440 Resolution

(At 8K, with the same aspect ratio, they would likely make it 7680x2160, for 163 ppi. Which is amusingly enough the ppi of the pre-Retina iPhones.)

Because they are non-retina. Aka. no hidpi.

In Mojave HiDPI options for external 4K monitors have disappeared... Where's the explanation for that?

What are you pitching it against, price-wise? If you know of an equivalent, or something even close, for around $1000, let us know!!

Just because there’s nothing to pitch it against doesn’t make the price fine. Too high is too high.

It may be too high for you, and it’s arguably too high to become mass-market, but I’m not sure that’s the goal for curved monitors. They’ll probably come down to $700-ish, but there’s no need for them to compete with $150 screens.
