    pls could you give me an idea if you saw both of these;
    lets say i will play spiderman, god of war, rdr2 etc. what should i choose, 32'' 4k for more crispyness or 42'' 4k for more immersiveness (idk if i use these words correctly but i think you'll get it),
    i wanna know is extra ppi worth to choose over extra immersive screen size

    I just got mine and think I need to send it back. I'm running a one year old mackbook pro (loaded) for PRODUCTIVITY/ NOT GAMING. I scaled down the resolution so that the fonts aren't massive, and it makes the resolution so poor that its distracting and photos look bad. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong before I return it?

      I checked this Samsung Odyssey Ark 55 inch Monitor and here are some of my observation
      1. When used in vertical mode, you can not set 2nd window or any tab of already opened browser in lower window in above two windows, only youtube and Samsung Web browser can be opened in it from Samsung in built App.
      2. Samsung has no built in windows separator /organizer software to arrange the window automatically.
      3. Not sure about the effect of such huge screen (which is not OLED) on your eyes in long run.
      4. Sound of this monitor is superb, Played Calm Down song it was pleasant listening to it, you will love its audio and deep thumping base, found the sound little less but ok for monitor.
      5. When used in vertical mode, the lower portion of monitor can not be set 90 degree to table , its lilt so you may find it awkward.
      6. It would have been great deal, if Samsung had provided feature to make the curve flat completely or be able to set 4 16:9 ratio windows in on screen like keeping two 49 inch monitor just one above the other.
      Overall its look like it's half baked product and should be sold for price of $1200-$1500. Hopefully 2nd or 3rd gen will grab huge attention.

    Waste of money. Just buy a LG oled if you want a big screen. And also who in their right mind would put a 55 inch 4k screen on their desk the PPI is so low. You don't want to be going above 32 inch at 4k. Maybe in 5 years when 8k is a thing I would be intrested a larger screen
