AOC Agon AG493UCX: 49-inch 120 Hz Display with FreeSync
AOC is releasing a 49-inch ultra-wide display dubbed the AG493UCX . The VA Panel model is designed for gamers and has a 120 Hz refresh rate, FreeSync support, 1800R display curvature, and a 32:9 resolution 5120x 440 pixels.

The monitor can be rotated, tilted and adjusted in height - Pivot is missing, of course, due to the immense width.
The brightness value is listed at 550 cd/m ², which would become a DisplayHDR400 certificate. The contrast ratio is VA typical 3000:1. The monitor is factory calibrated as mentioned with a claimed color deviation of dE <2 , interestingly enough the dsiplay also offers ... a gigabit Ethernet jack.

lol all these people commenting about the pixel density on the 49" ultrawide.... its got the same pixel density as a 27" 2560x1440 16:9 display, its basically two 27" 2560x1440 monitors side by side without a bezel in between... which to be honest is really appealing to me, I don't have the space for 3X 27" screens on my desk, and you cant game with 2X 27" screens as you spend your whole time staring at a bezel if you do that.
This type of monitor is awesome if you need the extra space and also want to be able to game on it as well, compared to having to just use one monitor to game if you go the dual screen setup route.

never said i wanted a ultra wide, but even if, i prefer a higher res than 1440p on a moni with equal/more screen height than my 32 (2560x1440).
dont care about panel type, more about things like local dimming and proper color coverage/accuracy.
last time i saw it, it was listed for +1300$.
https://www.amazon.com/AOC-AG493UCX-Immersive-5120x1440-Adjustable/dp/B07ZSGR4CH/ref=cm-cr-arp-d-product-top?ie=UTF8
i can get a 49X900F for about 800$, and when im really on a budget the 50" M series from vizio.
If you're not interested in an ultra-wide display, why are you even posting in this thread?
How exactly have you seen this display before? It hasn't even been released yet.

When will the display chauvinism ever stop in this forum?
This is a 32:9 ultrawide display with a height of 1440 pixels. Why are you popping in and saying you'd rather a 16:9 display of the same diagonal (which is irrelevant as they are different ratios) at a different resolution (4K)? How does that contribute to the discussion?

all I have to say is I tried 32" and 34" and the pitch between pixels was pretty bad (blurry) so yes the resolution is important on screens like this because of how close you are (doesn't matter on a TV)
Evidently you just haven't tried the "right" 32" monitor yet...
Pixel pitch on my 32" 4K BenQ EW-3270U is .18....it's so low that even 1" away you cannot see the individual pixels. My previous 32" UHD from AOC also had the same dot pitch--really nice. But, the lower the native resolution in a 32-34" screen, the better the chance you'll see some gaps between pixels. And with even wider screens at 35" +, especially those weird very wide 1080P monitors--yes, the pixel gaps would certainly be noticeable! 32" at 4k is my personal sweet spot.
