The 45-inch super ultrawide is 43.32" (110 cm) wide and 12.18" (30.9 cm) tall, while the 57-inch super ultrawide is 54.87" (139.4 cm) wide and 15.43" (39.2 cm) tall. That makes the 57-inch super ultrawide the larger screen by 60.4% of usable area.
The 45-inch super ultrawide measures 43.32" (110 cm) wide by 12.18" (30.9 cm) tall, with a total screen area of 527.8 square inches. The 57-inch super ultrawide measures 54.87" (139.4 cm) wide by 15.43" (39.2 cm) tall, covering 846.8 square inches.
The practical difference: the 57-inch super ultrawide is 26.7% wider, the 57-inch super ultrawide is 26.7% taller, and 57-inch super ultrawide offers 60.4% more screen area. Width affects how much desk space you need, while the height delta shows how much vertical space changes for documents, timelines, and video.
The practical choice depends on what feels limiting in your current setup. For coding, timelines, spreadsheets, and games, the wider option gives more room for side-by-side windows, while the taller option keeps more vertical content visible without pushing the edges of the screen as far away. If your desk is shallow, width and viewing distance matter as much as raw diagonal size.
45-inch 32:9 vs 57-inch 32:9 is mostly about side-by-side workspace. A 21:9 display behaves like one wide main workspace, while a 32:9 super ultrawide is closer to two monitors fused into one panel. The physical width number matters more than the diagonal when you are checking speakers, arms, laptop stands, or portrait side screens.
At 5120x1440, the 45-inch super ultrawide achieves 118 PPI. The 57-inch super ultrawide at 7680x2160 reaches 140 PPI. The 57-inch super ultrawide has 18.4% higher pixel density, resulting in sharper text and images.
For text-heavy work, PPI is the number that decides whether you are buying more room or just making everything bigger. A lower-PPI large screen can feel spacious for windows but softer for code and documents. A higher-PPI screen may need OS scaling, but it usually gives cleaner text and more flexible sizing.
For 16:9 content (most videos and games), the 45-inch super ultrawide provides an effective diagonal of 24.9", while the 57-inch super ultrawide provides 31.5". Check this if you watch 16:9 video or play games that do not support ultrawide resolutions.
