The PPI (92 ppi) will be similar to that of a 24"1080p monitor. Which is not ideal but also not e-waste tier IMO (I'm looking at you 1080p 34 inch ultra wides). I stare at text all day and for me the lowest I'd comfortably go is 27" 1440p (109 ppi).

I love my 4K monitor honestly, the text does look amazing, if your budget allows for it. For context, 4K is 163 ppi.

You can actually get this a little cheaper from deco gear's website with coupons. I ordered one for $131.99

Would this be good for a work monitor? I do a massive amount of on-screen reading for work. I'm curious if the text will be crisp and if the curve would make reading wonky on the eyes in any way.

Yes, but probably not like you think. Here's a nice chart I made a while back.

PPI comparison
16:9
  • 22" WSXGA+ (1680x1050) is 90.05 ppi
  • 22" FullHD (1920x1080) is 100.13 ppi
  • 24" FullHD (1920x1080) is 91.79 ppi
  • 27" FullHD (1920x1080) is 81.59 ppi
  • 27" WQHD (2560x1440) is 108.79 ppi
  • 32" WQHD (2560x1440) is 91.79 ppi
  • 32" UHD (3840x2160) is 137.68 ppi
  • 37" UHD (3840x2160) is 119.08 ppi
  • 40" UHD (3840x2160) is 110.15 ppi
  • 43" UHD (3840x2160) is 102.46 ppi
  • 47" UHD (3840x2160) is 93.74 ppi

21:9 (Ultrawide)
  • 29" UW-FHD (2560x1080) is 95.81 ppi
  • 34" UW-FHD (2560x1080) is 81.72 ppi
  • 34" UW-QHD (3440x1440) is 109.68 ppi

The monitor in this deal is about 92.6 PPI. That makes it ever so slightly sharper than your typical 24" 1080p monitor. In my opinion, 24" 1080p monitors are perfectly fine. Not amazing, but also not bad.

A benefit to a PPI in this range is that there isn't any "waste". With a UHD 32" 16:9, for example, you likely need to use OS scaling. The screen will be sharper. But it's more of a luxury. In addition, scaling can be frustrating when dealing with multiple monitors with different scaling ratios.

TL;DR: IMO, this resolution is perfectly adequate for this monitor. Based on just size and PPI alone, this monitor is a great price if you'd like an ultrawide version of a 24" monitor.

(I'm no display expert. I'll leave it to others to chime in about the actual performance of this monitor.)

I agree, I used a 24" 1080p until very recently, now I use a 1440p 32". Both look excellent, no need for 4K or anything crazy
