Nice affordable monitor

Its been a work horse ever since I’ve gotten it.Its what I expected and its been great.Its only happened twice but in the middle of the screen a vertical line “skew offset” making whatever passes through that get “couple pixel off set”.To fix, I have to power off and power one .This cant be a feature so I’m hoping it wont start being a problem in the future.Maybe I just got a bad one and it passed QA instead of being rejected?

Huge Display

I bought this monitor after I accidentally cracked the screen of a 34” ultrawide monitor from Samsung that I only had for a weeks (it was my own fault I admit but probably wouldn’t have happened for reasons I’ll get into shortly). I’m used to working on dual displays and so I decided to just buy an ultrawide that could do the same as having two separate monitors. I do some gaming but I wouldn’t say I’m a hardcore PC gamer (but having a high refresh rate is a nice bonus for when I do). I only got this yesterday and so far I’m very happy with it for a few reasons because they were lacking in the Samsung monitor I purchased. First is the built in speakers (I haven’t ent tested them enough to speak for the quality yet) because my last monitor didn’t have them. Almost every monitor I’ve had regardless of price had some form of built in speakers and the Samsung monitor had none despite costing more. They don’t have to be amazing but if you’re gonna spend over $300 on a monitor they should be standard. Next is the fact that you can adjust the height and angle on the screen. That was one one gripe I had with the Samsung monitor and part of the reason I accidentally cracked the screen (I was trying to install a Vesa mount on the back when it slipped and hit the the corner of my desk). I could not adjust the height of that monitor or tilt the screen. With the LG I can easily adjust it to whatever height is comfortable to me.I know it sounds like I’ve spent more time complaining about my previous monitor (I admit I’m still a little salty as it happened in the last few weeks) but I’m really satisfied with this. I wasn’t happy about having to buy a new monitor so soon but this was less expensive than repurchasing the same monitor with the same shortcomings and is probably what I should have gotten from the start. Heck I can even try to send off my other monitor for repair and have dual ultrawides lol.

Great, until it wasn’t

Got it last year on Black Friday deal, today, 3 days shy of having it for a year and half the screen goes to static. Cables are good, PC is good, it just…half died. When it was working it was great, minor ghosting issues aside.

really good quality and price

Really nice for the price, this thing is huge. really improves efficiency with work. you could have like six different tabs open and not be cramped. haven’t noticed any problems associated with this style of panel, everything is crisp and smooth although im not the most knowledgeable on the subject. for this price point, I don’t think it can be beat. only thing to consider is the size of the stand is pretty big. It barely fit on my desk with room for my mouse pad and keyboard, I had to let a bit of the stand hang of the back of my desk. if you have a smaller desk consider getting a different type of stand for it, maybe a clamp style or wall mount.

Solid Curved Gaming Monitor

This curved monitor was the perfect choice for me to go from a cluttered desk to a sleeker more organized desk! (Still fight the clutter, ngl) I haven’t noticed much lag in the graphics or black spots. Using a custom built PC for gaming with a high-end graphics card. Runs and looks flawless! Better than I expected, and I usually go with Samsung.

Arrived with a stuck pixel

Basically a perfect monitor, however it arrived with a stuck pixel. It’s been a few months and it has not fixed itself. However, it is just one pixel, and for the most part it goes unnoticed. Thought I would wait to post a review in case things turned out better, but they did not. Still a great monitor though, and others do not seem to have this issue.

Amazing Price and Picture!!

I bought this because it has a great Refresh rate and the Price was killer. THis is my first curved monitor and i’m loving it. I almost went with the big brother 45″, but heald back to reserve some desk space. Its not the best of the best but the picture looks great. I’m no expert in monitors by any means but MS Flight sim is beautiful on it. I was super nervous because i bought it “used – Acceptable” for a steal so i didn’t know what to expect. When it showed up it was in the LG box and hadn’t even been opened. Everything was still wrapped up. Win!! Hope this helps.

This will work at 120Hz on PS5(see below)

This monitor is a steal for the price. It is true that it only has hdmi 2.0 and so you cant use HDMI to get 120Hz on PS5 out of the box, BUT you can get a HDMI 2.1 to Display Port powered converter cable. I did and it works at 1440p 120Hz on my PS5. You just need to cable which will plug HDMI side into PS5 and DV side into the monitor. It works and without any noticable latency added. I play WARZONE and MW3 hardcore mode and this thing is incredible for the price.So I mounted mine. For reference I had a Samsung Odyssey G9 that was so heavy it broke off the mount I had and destroyed the screen. So I am used to a super high end monitor. This LG does not dissapoint and it was over $1100 less than my 49 INCH G9 (Which was over kill, lol). 32inch is really the perfect size for PC gaming, anything bigger makes it harder to catch players on the edges as its just too wide when it comes to competitive gaming.My only gripe is the stand. They need a redesign for this stands as they kill desk space.

Black bars appearing on top/bottom of monitor and stretched out

When I attached the monitor to my new Lenovo IdeaPad 1 , it wasn’t at the native 3440×1440 resolution, windows picked a higher resolution 3840×2160 and the screen was blurry and stretched out on the horizontal axis. If you forced it to 3440×1440, it put black bars on the top and bottom. The fix is to go into the Display/Advanced display/Display adapter properties/List modes/select 3440×1440/OK/apply. Then it will properly display and be crystal clear at the proper native resolution. It seems that windows and this machine can’t properly detect the resolution of this monitor – very frustrating!

Nice wide working surface

This monitor has a very nice wide overextended working area so you can open multiple windows on different areas of the screen to make your work more efficient. Great color and graphics, great responsiveness.

Amazing monitor

Was a bit on the fence of swapping over to a monitor from my 4k tv at 60hz, let alone to a curved monitor instead of a flat one. I am extremely happy that I decided to get the 34in curved monitor!!! The picture is great, the colors are bright, and the blacks are fairly deep. Also the increase from 60hz on my TV to the 144hz that I’ve been using in my games now are like a night and day difference! 60hz now feels like slow motion! Great choice to pick as a starter monitor for anyone swapping over from playing console or pc games on your TV! Easy to unbox and setup, had plugged in, setup/settings changed, and ready to go in around 10 mins.

skimpy instructions

This exact model was working good for months until the screen would become blank upon startup ,to say that the enclosed instructions or the downloadable information was helpful instead of succint would be an understatement. No where was it indicated that the two enclosed connection cables ( HDMI, Display Port) would both be needed for installlation because it only requires either,or 1only. The correct input info lacked clarification & so did the joysticks functions. Also it would have been helpful if LG would have advised that you needed to download the current & specific monitor drivers from the LG support webpage & to update your own unit’s graphic card, I mistakenly assumed that this was part of their plug & play statement. Thanks to the MS BING webpage it succesfully walked me through my problems which I’ll blame on operator error. But next time I’ll stick to HP.

Great Monitor!

I am really enjoying this monitor. I would love to have a 49inch Ultrawide but this will hold me over without breaking the bank. I game a lot and this is paired with a 7900GRE and the performance has been great. Very high FPS on everything and this monitor can keep up with it.

Great value screen

It does fit a 100mm x 100m mount no problem. I think the screen is really good for the price, it did seem to have some kind of high intensity flickering when it was running off my MacBook at 85 Hz, changing to 50 Hz seemed to solve that though. Color, brightness are fine for my needs, the pixel density isn’t super high but I am not sure you will get much better for anything under $1,000

Good product

Worth the price

Got it during Prime day, I’d say great monitor for the price!

For $250, i’d say this is a great deal. If you’re looking to replace / add a new monitor in your workspace I highly recommend this monitor. It’s great for gaming if you play games like FFXIV and other RPG games that support widescreen, it makes a world of difference! You can see more of the environment!

Excellent monitor

I am extremely happy with this monitor. I just bought a new gaming PC and wanted to upgrade from my 1080p 75 hz monitor. I chose a VA and 2k as I use it for work as well and had some concerns about 4k for productivity tasks, the clarity and contrast are a massive upgrade from my 27″ samsung. I am super glad I went with ultrawide it’s a game changer. I had heard some people voice concerns about it being TOO wide for FPS or MOBA’s. I haven’t played any MOBA’s lately but if anything the extra screen space is a bonus in FPS and definitely so in any other types of games. It fills my peripheral vision and creates a much more immersive experience.CON: There is just a single one, the HDR looks great but does causing some washing out in parts of the screen. As an example my menu’s in Baldur’s Gate 3 look super washed out with it on. I think they knew this though as they have a “HDR Effect” option that comes pretty close to actual HDR without the washout. All in all it’s a fantastic monitor for 350$. To do much better you will have to spend significantly more.

Cheap, big and reasonable DPI but does have some pesky motion blur

Overall, if this can be found for less than $300 its a large inexpensive monitor whose flaws can be overlooked for the value as an OLED is about three times more expensive.Pros:- Large, approx 100DPI. Enough pixels for many users while placing less demands on the video card compared to 4K.- Supports high refresh rates up to 160 hz with Freesync/Gsync support.- No blatant dead pixels when quickly viewing the patterns on “dead pixel check” while in the dark.- Comes with a displayport cable so its ready to use with any computer/device with full sized displayport.- Immersive for games, and makes half-maximizing by dragging a window to left/right edge useful.- Much darker blacks than IPS. (If you think it looks washed out make sure the test image is actually straight black and not a gray). Dark reader makes it gray.Cons:- Ghosting very obvious using “UFO test: ghosting” especially when following the UFOs. Otherwise its there when you look for it, but it doesn’t bother me enough to pay 3x more for an OLED.- Power consumption is a bit high (30w) but that comes with the size. An OLED is worse.- Has a power brick but its well shaped to avoid blocking adjacent outlet. An IEC 13C is preferable especially if used in a work environment (so all cords are interchangeable). It does mean that a failed power supply can be replaced by the user.- The last row of pixels is not dead, but has weird viewing angle. This can make the blue bar at bottom of win 10 task bar items (indicating they are open/active) not visible at a normal viewing angle for the rest of the pixels. Its almost as if the panel is curled down/away from user for last couple rows of pixels.Not an issue with the monitor itself, but would be nice if MSFT would have a 1/3 maximized shortcut. Browser or office application windows 1/2 maximized are a bit too big (with long reading lines or lots of dead black space). Full screen maximized is way too big.
