DQHD = 5120 × 1440
Dual QHD: two 2560 × 1440 screens with no bezel between. “5K” refers to its 5,120-pixel width. Our 49″ 5K and QD-OLED models use it.

Questions
Answered.
Is a 5120 × 1440 monitor really 5K?
“5K” describes its 5,120-pixel width. It isn’t the 5120 × 2880 of a 16:9 5K display: it’s dual QHD, two 2560 × 1440 screens side by side, with 7.4 million pixels.
What is the difference between DQHD and DFHD?
Both are 32:9 and the same size on a 49″ panel. DQHD (5120 × 1440) has 78% more pixels than DFHD (3840 × 1080): about 109 versus 81 pixels per inch at 49″, so text is noticeably sharper.
What does 5K2K mean?
5120 × 2160 pixels: 5K wide and 2160 pixels tall, the same height as 4K. It shows a full 4K frame at 100% with 1,280 pixels of width to spare.
