The KVM and picture-by-picture mode do exactly what the manual says
Two machines side by side means two lots of 2560 wide, which is tight
Set up with the work laptop and the desktop feeding it at once, split down the middle, one keyboard and mouse switching between them from a hotkey. That was the entire reason for buying it and it works exactly as described, which after reading a lot of forum threads about other people's KVMs I had not taken for granted. The compromise is what each half amounts to. Every side ends up 2560 by 1440, which is a perfectly ordinary monitor, so this is not two big screens, it is two normal ones with no bezel in between. For the work I do that is the right trade. The curve is gentle, the stand is a proper ThinkVision affair with real travel, and the whole thing feels built to sit in an office for a very long time!

The OSD buttons are round the back
Excellent screen with a menu you operate entirely by feel
Used for: More than a year
1440 of height is not much when the width is this generous
Two years of this on a work desk and it has replaced a dual-monitor setup completely. The only thing I miss is vertical space, because a long document still needs a lot of scrolling
Used for: Less than a month
Genuinely replaces two monitors and the dock with them
Window management needs a third-party tool to be useful
The desk has gone from two panels, two cables, a dock and a power brick down to one screen and a single lead to the laptop, which is worth something on its own. What took me three weeks to sort out was the window management. Half a screen this wide is still a big window, and the built-in snapping only gives you halves and quarters, so I ended up with a third-party tool to define proper zones. Once that was set it became genuinely useful rather than merely wide!
Used for: 3–6 months
No bezel down the middle and one cable to the laptop
Only 60Hz, which shows when you drag a window the full width
For spreadsheets and long timelines the uninterrupted width is exactly what I was after, and the hub means the laptop arrives on a single cable. Dragging a window from one end to the other at 60Hz across this much screen is not a smooth affair!
Used for: Less than a month
Text is crisp at 100 per cent, no scaling needed
Slight brightness fall-off towards the far edges
At this pixel pitch everything sits at 100 per cent scaling and stays perfectly readable, which suits the applications I live in. There is a gentle dimming towards both far edges on a white page, visible if you go looking for it and invisible otherwise.
Used for: 1–3 months
Replaced two screens and a dock in one go
Needs a deep desk to sit properly
Desk is tidier than it has been in a long time and the picture is lovely
