LG - 34UM88C-P

If I recall correctly, the original 49" Neo G9 has full array local dimming, and is VA w/ 1ms response times. Movie watching is still more enjoyable on a 21:9, in my opinion/ experience, as it will soak up all the screen real estate. If you were willing to compromise for OLED, the upcoming 21:9 LG 45" 5k2k display sounds amazing if movies are a big second factor after productivity. For context, I have owned an IPS LG 34" UW, and currently use an OG G9. I'm sure others with more experience will chime in, thought I'd share my 2¢ anyways :3

The one I upgraded from was an LG 34UM88C I'm now on a Samsung Odyssey G9 which was a big upgrade for me. More than doubled my refresh rate, OLED, 32:9, HDR. Although the 34UM88C is no longer available new I'm sure there are suitable 1440p 34 inch IPS displays that are more feature rich now. In fact I can see LG's 34WQ75C is an IPS 1440p 100Hz, HDR10. I'd also recommend using [pcpartpicker](https://pcpartpicker.com/products/monitor/#r=344001440&P=2&sort=price&page=1) to look at monitors that meet your specs.

Both. Ultra-wide 34" curved in the center; 27" vertical on left for email, Teams chat, windows explorer, etc.; 24" landscape upper right; laptop lower right.

LG 34 inch ultra wide. Dell 4k 27 inch portrait positioning. PowerToys is your friend! Easiest multi monitor management system I've ever used.

And still with 21: 9, two pages of almost anything fit quite nicely side by side... I've been using a LG 34 inch ultra wide for 5 years and it's been great. Three pages side by side no problem if some of them can be squished a little bit. I'm now upgrading to a 40 inch ultrawide and hoping to fit up to four pages side by side if a little squished some of them...

I have a 34inch ultra wide from LG. I don't do this but I did test it out. From my one 14inch MacBook pro I connected to my monitor using their thunderbolt type c connection, giving power to the laptop and display to the monitor. I then connected the HDMI from monitor to laptop. My monitor has the ability to display both inputs at once in a split mode and the MacBook thinks of it as two displays. Pretty neat

I use Better Display ([link](https://github.com/waydabber/BetterDisplay)) on a 34" LG Ultrawide and unlocks a bunch of HiDPI scaled resolutions. Quality is excellent. What I'm not sure about is what spec you need to check for compatibility. For example, when I connect via HDMI I have a way smaller list of available resolutions than when I connect with USB-C.

I use a cheaper end LG 3440x1440 monitor connected to a 2019 MBP as my daily driver. Zero issues at all, no blurry text
