For 1,200$ I want no borders what-so-ever!
Oh... I see what you did there. Quad HD, not Quad Full HD :shadedshu
I suppose it's still pretty nice, but nothing I could jump on until it's cheaper.
Pre-order if anyone was interested: SAMSUNG Series 9 S27B970D High Gloss Black/Brushed...
Edit: They're also apparently very environmentally friendly since the monitors are self-assembled without the need of tools or materials; they just magically pop out of the factory.
- qHD (960×540) = quarter of a Full HD
- WQHD (2560×1440) = Wide Quad High Definition
- QFHD (3840×2160) = Quad Full High Definition
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphic_display_resolutions#High-DefinitionI'd like to see resolution-wise is 26" or 27" 16:10 4k monitors, ie, WQUXGA (3840×2400, Wide Quad Ultra Extended Graphics Array).
Let's hope they continue to add features, at least there's 3 of the features I had mentioned here.:) 2 days to be exact.
PS. I wonder when Apple will release a "retina" cinema display. Probably LONG BEFORE the PC industry pulls their finger out...
