I have 3 30" at 2560x1600. I am very happy with the DPI on them. I'm not upgrading till 4K comes in 35" or bigger as my eye sight isn't that good to see higher DPI. I'm not putting my face right up to it so I can see that the pixels are smaller. A 16x10 4K at 35-40" @60Hz or higher is what I'm waiting for now.

They are going crazy in resolution department and we still have tons of applications that take no use of the more than 4 cores CPUs and GPUs are only mild upgrade to the last generation ...they even push 1440p in phones... what`s with this crazy rush about resolution anyway ?
And normal TV seems to be a dieing breed since they can`t push even 720p trough satellite at decent prices, everywhere HD TVs/smart etc and most of the stations are still SD, they just started to adapt 16:9 ...For now everything seems to be a huge mess ...

Possibly in future but as of now there is nothing to put out such high resolution even if professional so it must be up-scaled. Typical Apple, just being bigger = better just like Sharp and their ridiculous sized shit TVs just to snag people.
Not even the Quadro6000 can put out that much, it's max is 4096x2160@50Hz

27" screen = fail
I have a 1600p, 30" monitor, and my desktop is a little too small as it is. 5k is more than twice that resolution, and 27" is a physically smaller screen. that desktop is going to be impossible to read. I wouldn't buy a 4k or 5k screen that isn't at least 36". and 16:9 is a wasted opportunity, they really should go with 16:10.

This is UHD+ (5120x2880). Not 5K (5120x2160).Why are we calling the UHD standard 4K—despite being a lower resolution—but calling this UHD+ monitor 5K despite it being a higher resolution?
what do you mean despite? adding the "+" to UHD signifies that it's a little bit bigger than standard UHD, which is true (since, you know, 5 > 4). this is a perfectly logical naming scheme.

So 4K is still expensive and require expensive video card to run and isn't common or relevant for screens under 26'' but they already want to sell us 5K monitor ?I have a 23'' monitor at 1080P and i don't see why i would even change for a 4K.
If you're gaming, then sure. If you're just going on the web and surfing YouTube, nope, you don't need an expensive video card.
And if you don't have a need or desire for extra resolution, good for you. I however, enjoy the extra space offered by a 2560x1440 monitor.

I have a 23'' monitor at 1080P and i don't see why i would even change for a 4K. 1080 is fairly standard RES. I've been doing 1920x1200 on a 24" for about 7 years. I'm sick of the pixels... compared to my 720P phone which is 5" which is smooth.
I'm looking at getting a 26~28" display that is 4K in the near future, they are $500~2000. But hey, I got my 1920 back when it was $500.. nowadays, 1080P monitors start at $100.

Ditto, though the CRT monitor I used to have could do 2048x1536, which I used for gaming
for a while until I finally bought an HP IPS 1200-height display.

I guess that's not surprising, your phone has about 50% higher dpi perhaps? Not sure.

Hmm, at 28", wouldn't that make fonts & suchlike a tad small?
> But hey, I got my 1920 back when it was $500.. nowadays, 1080P monitors start at $100.
True, my HP was 450 UKP when new, though I wouldn't use cheap 1080 TN displays;
I prefer IPS, and they start somewhat higher, more like $300+ for 1200-height, $200+
for 1080.

Feel sorry for you and those of you still stuck at 1080p. Ive been gaming at 2560 x 1600 30 inches for 4 years now and just got a 32 inch Asus 4K display and its such an improvement over my 30 inch which is technically 2K. Well worth the money if you have it to spend. Of course having 2 GTX 780 Tis helps too.

People who suggest that 4K or even 5K is not enough have perhaps not realized that that human eye has a limit and past a certain resolution, given the distance from the screen, the increased resolution will simply not make any difference whatsoever. I don't know what that limit is but I suspect that 5K might already be very close to it. Of course everything I just said only applies to screen sizes around 30 inches. Right now I only have the dell ultrasharp 30 inch (2560 X 1600) and so I feel rather miserable (lol).
