Update:
This is a stripped down version of this Korean monitor: Crossover 40LGD5K (USB 2 instead of 3.0, no speakers or remote)
Official Site (Korean): https://www.crosslcd.co.kr/shop/l...ca_id=1010
Review (Korean): http://www.noteforum.co.kr/news/i...m?nm=52652

Review is positive and in line with other reviews I've seen of the LG 40"

Also, Deco Gear is Beach Camera. Their business address/pickup location is Beach Camera. So I would consider them as reputable as you might consider Beach Camera.

The panel of this monitor appears to match the LG 40wp95c-w, Lenovo P40w-20, Dell U4021QW, and HP Z40c. The main difference seems to be the lack of Thunderbolt (though it does have USB-C still). Could be a killer deal for a productivity monitor, though I wouldn't get it to to game.

Great deal if it is same as LG or Dell panel. I'm using the LG 40" version and it's great but overkill for my needs! Love the monitor.

This is tempting considering how much more the few other 5k2k options are.

I'm not seeing if this has built in KVM switch that many ultrawides have that allow the screen to be split and used as two separate displays.

Update: it looks like it does. From the product info on the manufacturer website - "The monitor seamlessly supports Picture-in-Picture (PIP) and Picture-by-Picture (PBP) functionality, empowering you to simultaneously view multiple sources."

I think I'll pass, though, given the 1-year warranty on a "Deco" branded monitor. And because I'm not certain how 2021/current MacBook Airs handle ultrawide 5k2k.

1 year is what LG offers as well. Yeah, a bit of a no-name, but from what I've heard it's Beach Camera's house brand.

The few reviews I've seen of their other models are largely positive however fwiw.

This model is so new (released November) that there are not yet any reviews

An M1 air can't handle two 1080p monitors natively, but it should be able to handle a single 5k2k display without issue. It's the number of displays that it's restricted on

This is the size and panel I want but really don't want to be the canary in the coalmine on this one. That said am hopeful maybe this could get a bit of pricing pressure on Dell, LG, et al.

For 5k2k input at 60hz I think that can only be USB-C and DP -- HDMI won't cut it.

For KVM this has a USB B output, would have to be for that, but there's only one so the USB-C port will have to do bilateral duty.

I'd love to test this but need more than two USB ports for KVM. Not sure this would support a hub. On top of that pretty sure the 4k webcam wouldn't operate on USB 2.0 vs. 3.0+.

That's good to know. I still am not clear on if it can do any non-native resolutions, to make the text bigger than native 4K, which from what I read is too small on 27-32" 4K displays…and with this being two 20" 4ks side by side that seems even worse (or maybe that's not how the sizes scale at all; not sure how the diagonal vs area calculations go).

That's not quite right. It has the pixel density of a 4k 32" monitor and the same height. It has about 9" more width though (1.3x wider than the 32"). Comparing monitor sizes is hard with the diagonals if they're not the same aspect ratio.

Since it has the same DPI as a 4k 32" you can see what others say about that monitor size and extrapolate it to this monitor.

This thread is living proof that a SlickDealer will never ever be happy, no matter what.
You can give him the price, you can give him the features, but he will always find something to "keep the search" going. Its like constant foreplay without an ending.

I updated the OP. This is a rebadged Korean monitor import. I think performance should be good, just a matter of how well Deco Gear supports their products.

I'd grab this if it had more curve, 2800 is basically straight.

FWIW I think it might be incorrect. The Korean site says the curve is 2500R (matching the LG monitor), which is still fairly moderate.

Whilst this looks similar to the Korean model, it's not an exact match.

Looking at the ports at the back, the Deco is USB 2.0, vs Crossover offering 3.0.

Crossover model has a remote, I don't think the Deco version has this.

Crossover has speakers, but this is not listed on the Deco.

So whilst it's likely coming from same OEM, this model looks to have some differences and possible cost cutting applied.

Good catch, you are correct. Updated my post
