I use a 27" Asus now. I have been looking into the curved monitor lately and I am not sure about it. I know when your standing in front of a monitor when its on you can't see what's on it till your sitting down in front of it. I have not seen what it is like to sit and stand in front of a curved one yet. I would be interested to see if you can see the full picture in front of a curved monitor or does it fade at both sides. I am truly interested to see comments from anyone who uses a curved monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stand up and move to the left or right of your monitor. Most monitors will have color shifts. Having a curved monitor reduces the discoloration effect in the far corners of the larger screens. That all being said i don't see a reason for anything other than flat. They force you to try and sit in the center of the ark/circle and can cost more without really giving a better experience in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just be careful to look very closely as I noticed curved monitors tend to have the higher risk of dead pixels, if you get one that is perfect then you should be set.
