LG - 34WN80C-B

I have an M1 Mini with a 3440 x 1440 LG 34WN80C-B and everything is fine

As far as I’ve seen… I’ve been looking at 34” ultrawides since last year.. ips for ultrawide are being replaced by oled. My first ultrawide - lg 34wn80c-b, got it for 537. A 60hz ips 1800r ultrawide. It was nice but 60hz. Still many options for ips available. My portrait side monitor now. Second ultrawide - m34wq, I wanted higher hz so a 144hz IPs flat monitor at a low low price, much cheaper 380. It is an amazing monitor for the price. I noticed IPs monitor options was much lower during this time. It’s now the secondary top monitor. Third and hopefully last for a long time - aw3423dwf, the price was too good for the time at 700 and a week later went down to 600 and got the difference with a price match. Solid oled monitor and my main. I also checked other options and … notice even less ips options. I’ve been keeping an eye out on ips ultrawides and … they are going eol. The only new ips ultrawide that came out are the 40” 5k2k work monitors. The best priced m34wq went eol very quickly. It’s sad since it is such a low cost but solid ips monitor that would’ve increased ultrawide market share = even better support. IPs is being replaced by oled. That’s what I’m seeing this year. Well, lower end ultrawides are being replaced by dirt cheap Va. On the oled, anti burn in support is much better now. You should still follow good practices to make it even better.

Damn, I should have waited those 2 years.. I bought used LG IPS 34" for the price of new DWF

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

I use a 34 curved ips from LG. There are also mini LEDs from TCL.

Just bought the LG one last week. Happy with the purchase.

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.

I just bought the LG OLED 5K2K 45” ultrawide. I think there’s a 34” version? My last LG 34” 1440p ultrawide was great too. My last 4 monitors have been LG and they’ve been great.

Using LG 34" UWQHD at 3440x1440 (Default) 85 Hz on M1 Mac Mini. HDR off. Great picture at a usable size. Chipset Model: Apple M1   Type: GPU   Bus: Built-In   Total Number of Cores: 8   Vendor: Apple (0x106b)   Metal Support: Metal 3   Displays: LG HDR WQHD:   Resolution: 3440 x 1440 (UWQHD - Ultra-Wide Quad HD)   UI Looks like: 3440 x 1440 @ 85.00Hz   Main Display: Yes   Mirror: Off   Online: Yes   Rotation: Supported

I did just switch to a USB C to Display Port and am now at 100 Hz. Small improvement.

I have neither of those monitors. I use a old LG 3440x1440 34". That only has 108ppi resolution while the mentioned 5k2k displays have 140ppi. However, MacOS has scaling problems with everything that is not "retina" resolution, so everything below ~200ppi. I find the text to be a bit blurrier on non-Apple displays compared to Windows. But you get used to it. Also the built-in window management is complicated, sluggish and not really suitable for ultrawide monitors, you'll want additional software like Better Touch Tool or Rectangle.
