1. Advantages of Wide View display
- Ability to split the screen into two halves for multitasking, such as working on one side and watching a movie on the other, while still ensuring each side has the widest possible view, without being narrowed like on standard screens.
- When reading books online, more pages can be displayed in a single frame, eliminating the need for continuous scrolling up and down while reading.
- Or when printing documents in landscape format, you can easily preview the required format with just one frame.
- It's possible to open multiple windows and arrange them to display on a single screen.

3. Disadvantages of Wide View display
Some software is not designed for 16:9 screens, so when displayed on these wide screens, there may be black bars on the sides to narrow the software to fit the width of a standard 4:3 screen.

However, the benefits that a Wide View display brings cannot be denied, especially for those working with specialized software that requires a Wide View screen.
