3840x1080 at 60%?
1920x1080 not in the list?
I'd of expected that to be the most popular.
Primary Display Resolution: 1920x1080 60.75% -0.72%
Multi-Monitor Desktop Resolution: 3840x1080 60.70% -0.36%
maybe the "Multi-Monitor Desktop Resolution" is excluding single monitor setups, so it would make sense that there is no 1920x1080 in there
I don't see any common single monitor resolutions in that list so they're definitely excluding single monitor setups from that list, which is good
23 0 ReplyI think they are mixing up single monitor and multi monitor setups
Primary Display Resolution 1920 x 1080 60.75%

7 0 ReplyI run 3840x1080. Two 1080p screens next to each other. Seems hard to believe that no one runs a single 1080p display, but maybe that's the case?

The 60/20 of two 1080p and two 1440p seems right, but how is there another 50% of “other”?
1 0 ReplyProbably can’t resolve monitors with distinct resolutions into one large one. How would a 2160p and a 1440p setup be displayed in this list?
2 0 ReplyThat makes sense, but if 50% of setups are that way, shouldn’t the rest also only add up to 50%? There’s around 150% listed here

Probably based on what the actual monitor resolutions are and not just the raw multi monitor result as you can create an almost endless variation of those when you start matching the resolution position based on the physical location of the monitors.
E.g in a setup like this even if both would be 1920x1080, you'd end up with something random like 3840 x 1428.1 0 Reply
The results are perpetually botched
