LG's Dual Up monitor sports a unique 16:18 aspect ratio, which seeks to help productivity workhorse users go for the vertical split-screen option.
LAS VEGAS - JANUARY 09: Attendees watch a bank of monitors at the LG Electronics booth at the 2009 International Consumer Electronics Show at the Las Vegas Convention Center January 9, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada. CES, the world's largest annual consumer technology trade show, runs through January 11 and features 2,700 exhibitors showing off their latest products and services to more than 130,000 attendees.
The latest monitor from the South Korean tech giant, LG, has been teased ahead of the major CES event in 2022.
LG's DualUp Monitor 16:17 Aspect Ratio
LG further touted that its new addition to its lineup of pro-monitors flaunts a "completely new format in the monitor market," as per the news story by The Verge.
The South Korea-based tech giant further noted that the DualUp monitor still gives its users "the same screen real estate as two 21.5-inch displays."
However, instead of the typical format of installing the two screens side-by-side for better horizontal split-screen productivity. LG wants to introduce an option that appears to stack two 21.5-inch displays on top of each other.
The tech giant added that it "lets users see more in one glance," which in turn could help alleviate chronic neck pain for those who spend too much time in front of their desktop computers.
LG claimed in its statement that side-to-side head movements are the primary cause of neck pain.
As such, it went on to produce a monitor that did not sacrifice the screen estate of two screens but gave the health problem a solution.
Aside from that, the DualUP Monitor of LG is attempting to boost not just the productivity of its users but is also looking to improve their convenience while working as well.
