Imo too small for 4k. This size is more appropriate for 1440p.

Hilbert... A little booboo in the text: 51000 Yen is about 483.38 dollar. Not 4992 dollar.

Definitely. I would personally prefer a 30" even for 1440p. But a 4K under 30", no way.

Naah... I'd rather see scaling improved. I want to make use of that higher PPI for better text rendering, not to gain more space. This is a perfect size for 4K.
