Sure. I'm more talking about TVs though, where things like cinematography and HDR are much more important than resolution. 1080p is more than sufficient for that, and 4k content is sometimes hard to find.
I personally find having two monitors more useful than one higher-resolution monitor, though ultrawide monitors are also nice (have one at work). The vertical resolution isn't a big deal for me, since I mostly care about tiling windows next to each other.
