I really don’t trust the quality of all these Taiwanese PC brands and even some of Korean brands, sure LG, Samsung make the panel but their monitor products have so many bad issues and their support always sucks always deny or not reply so painful.
I mean for example, I looking at all these current 4K 31.5” displays, flat and curved. I think curved is needed in this size-non curved too much panel is outside the peripheral view range, it is uncomfortable moving head around and the insistent urge to tilt the panel around.
Anyway all the displays currently on market from Samsung, LG, MSI, ASUS and Acer, displays, many of them now have these cheap nasty DC barrel connectors for power. They are tiny little connectors with a tiny single pin inside the display, the weight of the cable hanging cause the pin to loose connection and thus loose power. Difficult to find 3rd party power supply often need compromise to buy pack of cheap DC barrel adapters, just bad bad and piss poor effort cutting costs. These type DC external power packs with DC barrel adapters and only suited to power small devices like external hard drives, not huge displays.
Many not have VESA for monitor arms, many not have even USB ports for keyboard, mouse or USB sticks. I need 3 displays for example, the MacBook Pro 16 inch is the only practical choice for me, it will use 3 USB C for each monitor and 1 for power. No more ports left on MBP so then need displays with USB for the mouse, keyboard and USB drives (input devices for me must always be hard wired always wireless been unreliable).
When you look closely at all the 31.5/32 inch 4K there really is some bad products out there. So many people got issues, screen goes black or connectors fail or DisplayPort refuse to do more than 30hz cos the cable they supply is rubbish, bad light bleed etc
WTF is there only about 3 4K curved displays on the market?? So many different models available in curved for all other sizes except 32 inch.
Anyway so I give up on 4K curved because the models available are all **** cos they all missing VESA, USB, and all have ****** external brick power packs with DC barrel connectors.
Looking at the flat 4K 32 inch, I see only 3 models that tick all the boxes:
EIZO FlexScan EV3285
HP Z32 31.5-inch
Dell U3219Q UltraSharp 32 4K
All have real internal power with solid reliable IEC connectors,
VESA
USB etc
Not reading anywhere near as many issues with these than the PC gamer brands and the Korean brands.
I haven’t done price conversion in Sterling, so not sure if they inside your £1,000 range.
