4k on a curved 40in screen is pretty pointless.
In order for the curve to not distort the image, the optimum viewing distance is the curvature radius, which on this set is 3000mm, or 3 metres.
However, in order to visually see the difference between 4k and 1080p on a 40in set, that's actually ~1-1.5 metres.
So either the 4k is pointless as you won't actually be able to see the difference, or you'll sit too close and the curve will distort your view of the image.

Absolutely no need to curve a TV, just a ridiculous marketing gimmick

And the anti-curve glasses that you need for this:
Not quite correct, especially when you look at OLED - viewing angles are far superior to LCD VA panels which are around 40 degrees...
They also reduce reflections from artificial and natural light sources.

Dunno about that, I think the viewing angles are pretty good - and a decent picture as well

The majority of people that say curved TVs is a gimmick are the people who have never experience one!!

the majority of people who say a curved tv is not a gimmick are people who have bought one and are now convinced how good it is because they have spent the money...

This looks like the perfect size for a PC monitor so viewing angle will be a non-issue. I can't seem to find a single review that mentions it's input lag though.

Like Technohunter, I'd be interested in any review that tests this TV as a monitor and / or provides more details on the specs. It only says HDMI; which version (2.0 is needed to get 4k @ 60Hz). Does it have 4:4:4 chroma sub sampling? What's the input lag?

I am sure this outputs a decent quality picture and would be nice as an overgrown monitor or such but agree with all of the above. Op you are better off buying a decent 40" model for less money and avoiding the added problem of screen reflection. Curved Tv's are a bit of a gimmick but on larger sets can give results!
