Question what are the differences between a 21: 9 with 1500R curvature and a 1800R?

[Grealish01]

hello, I wonder if in case any of you have ever had either a 1500R or a 1800R, unfortunately, having never tried curved monitors, I have no idea of the differences of these 2 curvatures. what is my impression, but I can obviously be wrong, is that the 1800R gives the idea of being almost flat, that is really slightly curved, however I ask you to tell me if this impression of mine is true, if the difference is small, and in any case if you know how to illustrate the differences given by the different curvature. thank you

Curvature is only one parameter. Screen size is more important than curvature.

but you feel the presence of the 1800R curvature, is it as useful as the 1500R one? from what you tell me it changes little

It depends on screen size. The bigger screen is, the more impact from curvature.
What screen size are you considering?

With 19" screen you won't notice any curvature.

34" inch

34" 1800R screen is ok. Not overly curved. Immersion is good.
IMHO 1500R would be too much for this size.

thank you very much, last thing, may I ask you if you ever had a curved monitor?

if you ever had a curved monitor?

Yes. Sitting at 34" 1800R 1440p screen right now.

 

[Grealish01]

Yes. Sitting at 34" 1800R 1440p screen right now.

and do you feel the curvature? in terms of immersion in the game / video? or don't you find the 1800R curvature very immersive and sensible, in the sense that it is too similar to a flat monitor?

Curvature is definitely noticeable. Helps with immersion.
But you also don't want curvature to bee too significant.

Having switched to a 1800R monitor last year, it's kind of jarring to see straight lines not really straight, but still straight somehow.

You get used to it though.

do you notice the curvature or do you think it is too thin and too little accentuated?

At some point I stopped noticing a curve

Not like in a "the curve doesn't matter", but "it doesn't bother me"
