Single monitor is just not enough for UI developers. There should be at least one monitor for splitted-view text editor, and one monitor for fullscreen hot preview. Preview of half-sized window is not enough, especially for web developers. Alt + Tab every 10 seconds has huge impact on productivity.

Started my career in the 1980's doing government contract work, I have worked in most industries, done some angel investing, been through a few IPOs. Travelled the world, and now settled down.
I like a 4k monitor (I have 34 and 43in models on my 2 desks, the 43 is a little too big) but I can easily keep a 1080p browser open and editor and terminal and still see all 3. Then virtual desktops if I need anything else.
I think a 38" 4K would be perfect if I could find one.
