ASUS brings its ROG Bezel-Free kit to market
If memory serves me right then it was CES 2018 when ASUS announced a bezel kit for their monitors to expand towards a better surround-view experience. Basically you can take three displays and transform it into one. Two years later, it is available.
Well, it is finally available it seems, albeit it is unclear as to why and that took this long. The kit contains two clips to attach to the monitors. The material will redirect the light rays so that the screen edges become invisible. According to ASUS something that works best at an angle of 130 degrees.
If you opt this solution then 27" is the maximum display size you can use with a bezel no wider than 13mm in the US it is sold for $110 on Amazon.

I agree. Although I have to admit, I wouldn't bet on the picture not being stretched... probably would get it after seeing it in person, or I'd get it from a merchant that's easy on returns. But generally I think it's pretty neat.
This is actually really cool. Not sure if someone else has done it before.

I think the main challenge will be the angle and positioning (and they do give suggested angle in the press release, so that kinda confirms it). If you have it perfectly aligned - it should work well. Concept is simple.

Maybe I am to old ! But I don't fancy this and never liked the multiple monitor idea !

I use a multi monitor setup (3 x 27" 1440) but the 120 degree angle seems rather steep. It's also the sort of thing I'd like to see first before spending £100, I don't really "see" the bezels anymore anyway.
