1440p vs. 2160p
I spend 60% of my time working in Affinity Designer, %40 actually writing code. So I needed a good monitor to support my workflow. The consensus on the internet seems to suggest the difference between 1440p and 2160p is minor.
This wasn’t my experience and maybe it’s due to prolong retina use? However 1440p is unbearable all it took was opening one Designer file to say fk this sh!t. The only other monitor I had was the 1st gen LG 27” usb-c ips display. The monitor was excellent until I had 4 die out on me in a row... Needless to say I’m very skeptical of LG at this point.
LG gripes aside I think you would have to be close to legally blind to assert 1440p is within arms reach of 2160p! It’s just not even remotely close. The best advice I can give anyone looking for a new monitor is to always go 4K or better, you can thank me later.
