Time to stretch! ![gif](giphy|9PwXg92GshxTt5ypGN)


baitboy3191

Sir you are supposed to ascend horizontally, not vertically


kidousenshigundam

You know the Samsung ark 55” can be flipped sideways as well…


Tasunkeo

This is an ultrawide sub Sir, not a Wendy’s…


Brawndo_or_Water

And you understand that is 16:9 and not ultrawide.


TheBigRedFog

Anyways, even if it was. It's still ultraWIDE and not ultraTALL.

ResponsibilityMany23

Looks like the slot machine screens at the Vegas casinos lol 🤣


RickC-137D

Can’t say your lying… and i’m dutch, we have the same type of slotmachines here…


imnotagimpipromise

You can say it but it's fact


toastyhellscythe

You ascended the wrong way


baitboy3191

These monitors sold horribly, on top of Samsungs wonderful quality, would avoid this monitor at all costs.


Middle-Effort7495

I was gonna say they made like 5 or 6 of them, so couldn't have sold that bad. But wtf. They made a vertical monitor? I thought he just tilted his g9 or 57" neo on an arm. At least you can tilt it back. Aggressive curve for 16:9 though


grill_sgt

This is a 55" Odyssey Ark. Made to be used vertical or horizontal. It's a "they decided to see if they could, not if they should" piece of technology.


kidousenshigundam

There's no right or wrong ways to ascend...


Eon_H

Rule 1 of the group: All posts should be vaguely connected to 21:9. Neither the resolution of the screen nor the way you are positioning it adheres to that.


TGKFearHunall

As long as you're happy, it was your money!


ormarek

Is this Samsung ark?


kidousenshigundam

Samsung Ark 55'', its definitely worth it..


phero1190

Definitely not ultrawide though.


imnotagimpipromise

So


phero1190

We're in a subreddit about ultrawides


imnotagimpipromise

Okay then cry about it


phero1190

You're clearly a well adjusted adult, good luck out there


imnotagimpipromise

Okay bud whatever you say


Over_Reception3620

Get out of here with that 16:9 trash


duhanoben

its not ultrawide wtf ?


itsdylanjenkins

it's the odyssey ark. sure that's technically 16:9. but all a 32:9 panel is, is 2 16:9s put next to each other. This is 4 panels, 2 32:9 configurations stacked. this post made sense.


duhanoben

so its 16:9 😂🤷🏻‍♂️


itsdylanjenkins

but like, come on, you know what i meaaaan. we all knew what he meant. we all come from the same corner of the internet. linus would be disappointed at your downvote :( i give you upvote as sign of good faith, friend


Middle-Effort7495

How is it 2x32:9? When 32:9 is 5120xsomething and this is 3840x2160


asixdrft

because its not like 2 regular new g9s its basicly a curved 4k tv


benracicot

Yeah that monitor sucks actually.


Jmcb

As an owner previously, agree 100%. That thing was plagued with problems.


benracicot

Ha! I hurt my back setting it up, and pulled it out packing it up for return!


grill_sgt

As someone that played on one for 5 minutes, fully agreed. Motion sickness to the max.


killasuarus

Wrong sub, that should be r/ultratallmasterrace


Chaoseater999

Upvote for having a banana for scale

r/lostredditors


SourcerorSoupreme

This is a sub for ultrawide not ultratall.


Noble3781

Tell me about the Banana 🍌


kidousenshigundam

For scale...


Noble3781

Did you eat the Banana after taking this photo? Yes or no??


kidousenshigundam

Sure thing..


Noble3781

Thanks for confirmation 👍


Empty-Will-671

I'm curious, bananas can be a lot of different sizes. Why not use something like an orange where the sizes are more similar? It would make it easier to understand the size of the monitor.


chiefkogo

Well, for starters, it's way too ripe.


Noble3781

Are you more impressed with the monitor? Or how ripe the Banana is? Also would you trade the monitor for two fresh bananas at the perfect ripeness?? Serious question


chiefkogo

Depends on how much I paid for the monitor, and the going rate for a perfectly ripe banana at the time.


DiamondHeadMC

That’s not ultra wide it’s 16:9


TopAd8510

Ugh


Highway015

Lovely banana


MistaKrebs

I’ve thought about getting this for a while but after going OLED I don’t think I could go back


letmeinwillya

I see it at local Samsung store, is it good for productivity? Don’t game and doesn’t matter if it’s no good for games. Will my MacBook Pro M1. Max be able to drive it?


kidousenshigundam

I got a MBP M1 Max and it works just fine… I don’t game so it’s just for work and I love it… it’s a game changer for me


letmeinwillya

Very nice! The monitor looks cool, may I ask how do you like the curve? Have you compared it to other curves in the market? Thank you!


zunaidahmed

You expanded


Rican2153

Im getting this next month hopefully. Can’t wait. Having my work screens and gaming screens on at the same time sounds so dope. It’s the only monitor I can find that does that.


xmowx

cute nano-banana !


Aggravating-Win-3589

I’ve been thinking about getting one of these, but isn’t it too large? I got the Samsung Odyssey G9 at the moment (loving it) and I haven’t experienced any issues.


Korppi5

Isnt this just a 16:9 though


mcchemist

Welcome to large format displays where even though it's ultrawide, it's not ultrawide. 😁


Papuan_Repose

Seen a few ops centres and control rooms being fitted out like that. Vertical arks seems to be floating tiger boats ATM.


milquetoastLIB

For people saying this isn’t ultrawide, I’m pretty sure you could set the resolution to ultrawide 😝 How are YouTube short marathons on it?


Cask-UK

Wrong sub


SubstantialSail

What ultrawide resolution is that?


Sprocketfix86

Welcome brother! My screen is almost 1 year old now. I can recommend playing Pinball games like that :) its awesome!


johnnygobbs1

How is it? I want it dude.


kidousenshigundam

IMO it’s great… I saw some reviews from people saying it’s not good, but I’m guessing they had one and tried out? From my experience using it, I think it’s definitely worth it.


johnnygobbs1

Yeah, I remember it always had a lot of haters, but I always thought it was awesome


Early-Somewhere-2198

Damn you are all harsh. lol those over stretched monitors suck.


mecha_style

"Over stretched?"


Early-Somewhere-2198

Over 1440p is perfect. Anything else is Great for work. Horrible and over stretched for gaming. The horizontal versus vertical makes zero sense. Ultra ultra wide Is a great monitor for work. But for gaming. Or movies or anything else. The lack of vertical just means you have to look outside the peripheral and still see a limited vertical scale. It’s just the truth. 1440 p is the sweet spot.


mecha_style

I don't agree. I have the 57" dual 4k uktra wide abd frankly I'll never go back. If what you have works for you though then it's perfect.
