[SOLVED] 29" 1080p Monitor vs 4K 43" TV

arnuld · Jan 9, 2019

I have choice between these 2 and price difference is merely $100:

■ LG 29UM69G 29 Inch Ultrawide IPS Monitor
■ Flipkart Android 43 inch(109 cm) Ultra HD (4K) Smart LED TV

The graphics card I am gonna buy is RX 580. Refresh rate of LG is 70 Hz while Flipkart has 60 Hz. LG got FreeSync. My work includes programming, lot of browsing and searching, Jupyter lab software, watching Blu-Ray movies and 1080p videos on YouTube. I never play games.

I have watched several videos and now decided to go with a 34" inches ultrawide 1440p monitor but because of budget constraints (shipping to India costs $100 extra above MSRP) and my choice to get a VA panel over an IPS one, I decide to stick to 27" curved Samsung (LC27F591FDWXXL). It is available at a decent price of 19K ($300) in India. Here are the videos I watched, I have watched 10 times more than what I am posting here, these are the few selective one which will change the way you think about buying a monitor:
