It is the way, Surface laptops are well built in my experience
You can fix it with this
Ultrawide is perfect for gaming, but 3:2 is the play for laptops.
That really depends on the kind of games you’re playing. I actually sold off my 49" Samsung ultrawide because most of the games I played on it didn’t really make good use of it (like Project Diablo 2, Grim Dawn and other ARPGs, as well as RTSes like AoE2 HD, Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds etc.)
I got a 16:10 monitor in its place and it suits my games so much better. Heck, I think even a 4:3 or 3:2 monitor would suite me well.
49 isn’t the ultra wide that’s super ultrawide. The 21:9s are so superior to 16:9s
3:2 is great for productivity on a smaller screen for sure.
But I gotta hard disagree on ultrawide. It sure looks pretty but unless you play simulation games exclusively I find that they make the experience worse. Their main benefit is that they’re more cost effective (both the screen itself and that it’s easier to drive) than a triple monitor setup while satisfying to a decent degree all use cases were a triple monitor setup excels.
Gotta disagree with you as an ultrawide user.
Watching movies is way more fun than on a TV.
Working on it is very cool. Research is very good with it like browser on the left and Visual Studio on the right.Sure, I came at it from a pure gaming angle. From a productivity angle it’s almost as good as multi monitor setup but generally cheaper. And for Movies it can be better than multi monitor setups and for sure better than non-ultrawide (for the right movies of course) but for me movies are a social thing and I can’t stand watching something alone on the computer, generally.
