Default Computer monitors?

I went from two 19" 4:3 monitors (not sure of the resolutions) to a single 34" ultrawidescreen (21:9, 3440 x 1440) Samsung CH890 (https://www.samsung.com/uk/monitors/professional-ch890/) and wasn't sure how it'd compare.


I forgot to add: don't assume bigger is always better... I sometimes use a 49" super-ultrawidescreen (32:9, 3840x1080) Samsung CHG90 (https://www.samsung.com/uk/monitors/curved-chg90d/) at work and really quite hate it. The reduced vertical resolution as a bit limiting and, frankly, I never go near the far sides as it feels like you're working on someone else's desk when you do! Probably great for gaming - which I think is it's target market - but somewhat deficient for 'normal' use.
