If you’ve never spent time using a curved monitor, it’s easy to assume the design is just a marketing trick. I used to think the same until I started gaming on one myself.

None of these experiences has been so compelling that I want to wear a headset on my face for more than an hour. Still, I gave it the ol’ college try, and…
