I’m looking into ultra wide monitors to use for home office. I thought it might be cleaner to do a dual screen instead of having two separate monitors. For this purpose, should I be looking at 32:9 ratio monitor, or is 21:9 ratio sufficient?

Two monitors will always be better than one when multitasking. I have a 32:9 49" ultrawide that virtually splits into two screens; this is better than using one single ultrawide.

Yup same with mine too. Its a samsung

Ultrawides are really for gaming or maybe design. Not great for regular multitasking compared to two monitors

Agree

Thanks for the feedback. I was hoping that having one nice monitor that can do it all might work better than buying two monitors and another $1-200 on stands

Would it be too much if I asked my parents if I can get a small work desk to keep at their house while I live there? I'd be so much more productive.

Home office revamp recommendations:
1. Autonomous standing desk: honestly the best desk ever! Order arrived in 3 days, even better quality than I imagined. I got the L shape one, fits 3 monitors and a laptop comfortably on one side. Now I stand while taking calls. I wish I had it last year during busy season. Oh I have a promo code if anyone is interested: R- 200les
2. Steelcase gesture office chair: same chair as PwC office.

Tell the truth: are you more productive at home than the office? How much more? How about your coworkers? Are they more productive in your estimation? And lastly, your whole team - is it more productive in a remote environment?
