![]() Michael Crider, Reviews Editor: Three (and a Half) Michael Crider / Review Geek So for me? One ultrawide is perfect for multitasking when I need to, but isn’t overwhelming when I need to focus. In my case, it’s quite the opposite-too much screen real estate is nothing more than a motive for distraction to take over.

But we think you might like to hear our breakdowns, and perhaps get a little inspiration for your office or work-from-home setup. ![]() That being the case, we asked a roundtable of Review Geek staff how many monitors they use, what kind, and why. ![]()
