I won't buy a 40" monitor. It is way too big. Nice size to me is between 27" to 32" for wide. 34" to 38" for Ultrawide.

A 4K 32" should be good enough to look good and also scale well, it would be 137~ PPI which is another thing from 105/110 PPI, an increase of 20~% in density.

I just do some calculation. 32" 2560x1440 = 91.79 PPI 34" 2560x1080 = 81.72 PPI That why I feel not a huge differences. Haha! Thanks for suggest 32" 4K, for that 137 PPI will have differences I believe. 🙂 I am thinking in between 32" or 27" for my normal viewing monitor, current 34" will be my gaming and movie monitor. 🙂 But before this, my next monitor is going to have a 24" monitor that can do portrait mode and 1080p is fine. I am thinking to buy Dell U2417H.

Yeah indeed, very low PPI! I was thinking myself to get a 28" 4K but scaling on windows will probably be a pain in the bu*t, i think the best way is try everything and pick after. Anyway a 1080p on a 24" is still ok, but i wouldn't go past that with that resolution.

Ya a lot Windows apps that support scaling is very bad and 28" 4K surely need scaling. That the reason I still hesitant to get a 4K display. If I get I will use it for surfing and documents usage only. Since now I no issue using a 82 PPI display, I believe I am fine with it. 🙂 under 82 PPI is still very sharp to me as long as it is a great IPS or VA+ panel and not a TN panel. A good IPS panel do give a big differences compare with TN under same low PPI, this thing very hard to tell and let people believe, only once you seen it then you know the output. In my office, I am using dual setup in old monitor, one of it is 19" 1280x1024 TN monitor, which equal to 86 PPI and this is slightly higher than my current home 34" 2560x1080 IPS monitor but that old 19" wording is blur pixelate and not sharp. Another office monitor is 22" 1680x1050 IPS panel and it is 104 PPI, it is very sharp and clear but I can clearly tell you it had no much differences compare with my current home 82 PPI 34" 2560x1080 IPS monitor. In summary, panel also make an important point here not only the PPI matter.

Yeah true, but PPI is the most important when talking about sharpness.
