Went from two 27” thunderbolt displays that were side by side, to two Dell 38” stacked on top of each other. With the bottom monitor closer to the desk and the chair a bit higher, my eyes are at the top center of the bottom monitor and I’ve noticed my head doesn’t go back and fourth and my eyes can cover the vertical space pretty easily.

Looking forward to some high dpi 38” monitors over the next few years.

I would be a little concerned about the ergonomics - any slight deviation from the heads central balancing point on the neck (i.e. looking slightly up or down) over a longer period can cause neck strain with the associated problems.

The ideal position of a monitor is with the top directly in front of your eyes when your head is perfectly upright.

That said you obviously don't have to turn your head as much, which might make up for that.

Yeah I used to have a 2-28" side by side with a top 28" on arms and I really didn't like it. It caused constant neck pain no matter how I adjusted my seating position and I wound up rarely even using the top monitor. I initially figured I'd just keep spotify/media on it

Back to 2-28s now. Debating on getting 1 49" but I'm worried I'll miss having two completely separated monitors.
