What deserves a permanent second screen?

A permanent second screen under the big one: the Dream Desk Setup site, chat, the calendar, or whatever he is half-ignoring. Hybrid workers who want a light, reliable USB-C second screen with a business-class warranty.

“I paid C$444.99 in Dec 2025; Dell has since lowered the list price. Daisy-chained off the Dell's Thunderbolt downstream port. If your main display drops to 60 Hz after plugging this in, see the U4025QW note. The low position means you look down at it, so it gets the things I glance at, not the things I read.”
