Same pair as you (34” curved and 27” portrait), but with the 27 on the right, and my laptop below the 34.

Went back to a single monitor: 32" 1440p at home, 24" 1080p at work. The 32" is big enough to have two windows side-by-side, so I rarely miss having two screens.
Yeah I find moving my neck to the side difficult. But I find two windows not enough. Might need a bigger single monitor.
A 27" LG 1920x1080 LCD with a 3" vertical gouge in one side and a wrinkly backlight diffuser sheet. To the left, a 22" LCD of some sort, and further left, the 15" LCD of the ten+ year old Toshiba laptop that's running the show.
But I'm lazy and mostly just use a 17" FHD laptop to Rustdesk into the Toshiba from the lounge.
32" with 27" on the side.
Barely using the 2nd monitor.
Tried using double 27" but it didnt work for me (I just focus on one monitor).
I tried a curved ultra wide once. I loved it for work and gaming, but i am so used to having 4k that I experienced it as blurry, and 4k curved monitors are €€€.
Moral of the story: dont get used to 4k, it will spoil you.
Currently just one 27" 1440p 180Hz IPS, eventually I hope to add an OLED as my primary display and put the current one off to the side in portrait
I just have 1 25" one.. I do want a second one, but you know :3.. life
You can probably find a shitty monitor for cheap off Craigslist or Facebook marketplace. I bought a shitty VA monitor for $20 like ten years ago and it's still part of my setup
Don't really see a point to getting a shit one tbh x3
A cheap monitor for Discord or whatever beats no monitor
Dell CRT on the left, HP 4k 60hz center, Acer 1080p 144hz IPS on the right
When I'm working it's laptop on the left connected to a 34" UW as my main display and a 32" on the right, both curved. For personal stuff it's the same minus the laptop. I'm thinking about switching back to my old setup which was 32" main with a 24" in portrait on each side. Not that useful for personal use, but for work I could use even more...
In the livingroom it's a 65" TV...
2 24 inch AOC monitors.
2 Asus 27" 1440p monitors center and right. 1 Dell 4k ultrasharp on the left and my laptop display underneath. My own PC connects to the two Asus; my work laptop connects to the Dell and center Asus and depending on if it is work time or play time, I swap the input on the center monitor. Input director provides mouse and keyboard access across both machines and works really really well. I do use all 4 monitors throughout the day; the personal machine isn't tied into work but with input director the clipboard is shared across for copying and posting information found on searches etc. I work remotely.
Two 27" 1440p, one being straight in front and one angled to the side
