What's your preference - dual monitors or single monitor?

Question

I've seen a bunch of your workstation pictures and have noticed a nice blend of one huge or superwide monitor vs. multiple displays. What is your preference and why?

Roman Velitskiy · Accepted Answer

Ultrawide displays all the way!

Jasper Ruijs · Answer

Single Monitor, I wanted to be focused on the hand task.

But I can Imagine when you are designing in Sketch or Figma that a Second screen is useful.

@eddieaich I'm definitely much faster with a superwide monitor! I'm also using this tool called, Spectacle for Mac, with which I can divide the superwide monitor into two plus the monitor of the MacBook, ta-da, I have 3 solid workspaces that I can control simultaneously. Reading a related previous email, while typing a new one is much faster with multiple monitors instead of switching tabs back and forth.

But I strongly believe if I have any more monitors, I'd definitely get lost in them :D

I used to have two monitors. I now prefer using a single large monitor, especially if you use the windows shortcuts (windows + left or windows + right) to place your windows.

Answer

I am using dual monitors set up for quite a long time and cherished it. yet, it relies upon how you manage your PC and what you need your arrangement to be.

@ermanergun Thanks for the tip about Spectacle! I'm leaning towards getting a superwide but was concerned about having to constantly reposition windows. Is that a problem you are facing?
