TCL is making a "dome" panel  

 

I love engineering, and engineers deserve all the respect, but did anyone ask for this? Discuss

Like my honest opinion what is the point in that style monitor? Are they trying to make it look like a cockpit plane window? Like we are all fine with curved and flat displays! But the design does look pretty cool though and makes me curious how they achieved that, probably something I would get.

I feel like this would be horrible to watch or do anything on unless your sitting in the exact focal point of the monitor, i dont love curved screens myself but i feel they are at least easier to work with than...whatever this turns out like. Tis a cool concept regardless though, and shows technological progression at the very least

Also current curved screens all have terrible ips glow and the only good ones are oleds. So like how extra bad wont this be

Only reason I could see this is if the monitor is very large and very high res, say like 60" 8K or something. So it's close and wraps around so each corner and edges are as close as center. 

Still not into giant formats.

This monitor is only 31" 4K OLED in 120hz. I agreed with you should be bigger, 31" I think everything will look weird from productivity to gaming, but for decoration purpose probably ok.
