The problems you are talking about were caused by using a TFT panel. An IPS panel, like advertrising is buying, will look -exactly- the same in either landscape of portrait mode.

And although TFTs start a lot cheaper than IPS, you can get expensive TFT panels and relatively cheap IPS. So just buying an expensive monitor will not guarantee it will look good in portrait, you have to read the specs.
