Which vertical monitor do you use?

I’m thinking of buying a monitor that I can rotate to use as a vertical monitor?
Also, I want to know if someone is using it for programming and how does it help you?

Please, ignore my “organization” :smiley:
I love how I can easily change the position, angle or orientation of the monitor using the arm

I’m using two HP Z27 4K monitors on a double arm (just Amazon Basics). The central monitor is horizontal and the second is vertical.

I find it nice for having a browser for reference and another browser or terminal for output or preview. Depending on what I’m up to. It doesn’t go as wildly off to the right as it would in horizontal mode so I find it more useful.

You should go for ASUS VN279QL 27" Full HD 1920x1080 Display.

My experience:

The main reason I got this was for the amazing swivel stand it comes with that allows you to use the monitor vertically. Essentially this will help me look at lists on excel and scour reddit posts (among other things) way more effectively with the long portrait mode screen. Attached is a photo of the monitor on the left and how it fits in with the setup. I can see this being extremely useful for coding, web designing and basically anything that requires viewing of long lists for reference and comparison. It’s definitely made my work setup more efficient while freeing up some desk space as opposed to having another horizontal monitor.

Note: Monitor recommended by Tenrater
