I saw this for $850 at microcenter but they had an open box with a Sept 2019 date on it for 10%off. Didn't think 10% off was worth it but was able to get it for 15% off ($722). I had the guy plug it in and take it out before I even considered it. No dead pixels that I noticed using simple black/white test.
The annoying thing about PBP is if one is display port and one is HDMI you'll notice differences in the white shades.
Otherwise it seems like an ideal monitor with lots of resolution and minimal head movement. I have a 42" now that is just way too tall and given me neck aches from looking up.
So is this a decent deal for an open box (probably on the floor for 2 months) at $722?
I have 15 days to return but hitting up microcenter is a good 2.5 hr round trip for me.

That would be 3840x1200...this is 3840x1600 so ur actually gaining space, no?

im not sure WHERE you are losing REAL Estate... "screen real estate" equates to resolution in my opinion, b/c that's the actual space you have on the screen. What are you referring to?

You bought the monitor, either you like it and it fits your needs or it doesn't which is what my original post was all about. It also was about my experience going from dual 24 to single 34, not the 38 you have.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

a 24" monitor with a 1920x1080p resolution has LESS real estate than that same sized 24" monitor with a 1920x1200 resolution
You can have two identically physical sized monitors, but one can support a higher resolution than the other and thus two monitors of equivalent physical size can have different amounts of actual real estate based on the resolution.
resolution doesn't "really" refer to sharpness, though one mistakenly say a "higher resolution as being more sharp" it's not really "sharper" so much as it simply has more pixels which makes it technically denser which may give the appearance of "more sharpness" in colloquial terms, but it's really just more definition in the same area - hence the term "high definition"
