Slightly odd question I know, but hear me out.

I currently have a flat QHD 24" monitor, which I'm very happy with. I am looking to get a second screen, but the current one has been discontinued. Sadly the model had a very short sales career which means used ones are very difficult to come buy and new ones are NLA.

One of the well known electronics retailers has the exact same screen available, except for the fact it's curved. As I'm wall mounting them anyway, I could get adjustable mounts so they would effectively 'join' up together as one screen, but I don't know how this will work in the real world. Just wondered if anyone had any experience of doing this and maybe pictures of the setup?

Thanks smile

Not on the wall, but I did have a curved monitor as my main one and flat to the side of it.

To be honest, you pretty quickly stop noticing it's curved

Same here - Big widescreen 43" curved, then a second monitor I use for presentations.

I have a curved 49” monitor in landscape and two flat 27” monitors in portrait - one either side of the larger curved monitor. As said, the curved looks flat after a while using it.

I have a big curved (landscape) screen and a 27" portrait screen, handy for reading documents. No problem having the combination.

Yep - I use a curved Dell S3422DW 34" monitor alongside my 27" iMac - no issues whatsoever.
