What kind of display to get?

I've been using a 23" 1080p monitor but I want something that I can open two web pages side by side on. I have dual monitors now but I when I go to college in the fall I only want to bring one monitor. I was thinking an ultrawide but a 25" one is a bit shorter than my current display which I think would make it feel smaller, something I don't want. I could instead maybe go with a 1440p monitor which gives me the same amount of vertical pixels but a bigger (feeling) screen for 25".

This is what I would probably get for 1440p: https://pcpartpicker.com/part/acer-monitor-umkg7aa002

This is what I would probably get for 21:9: https://pcpartpicker.com/part/lg-monitor-25um57p

Or I could get a 29" 21:9 monitor but it would cost more than I want to pay: https://pcpartpicker.com/part/aoc-monitor-q2963pm

Both are 25", IPS, 60Hz, and 2560p wide.

I play league of legends mostly and my GPU can handle either option.

Any suggestions of which option to go with? Is it worth it for a 29" 21:9 monitor? Should I just go for a 25" 21:9 and I wont really notice it? Should I just get a 16:9 monitor because it'll work for what I want a 21:9 monitor for? Are there better options than what I found for not much more money?
