I really hope you didn't buy it! I got one recently and it is HORRIBLE. A terrible product which is now unavailable to purchase and it's clear to me why. It's a piece of shit.

Do you work for LG? Cos I hav the same monitor and it seems like you've been paid to say that. It's a piece of crap and a faulty monitor from the production line.

It displays text really badly in it's native "full wide" resolution. Looks very feint and tiny. Then you have to download a github terminal prompt to make it run properly in the stepped down resolution, which is so annoying that you need to do all this work to make it run properly. After a few days of working it all out, it stopped connecting to my mac and would not display anything. It's not a good product in my opinion. I've organised a return already

I used it with my macbook pro and felt like it was a massive downgrade to my 27” UHD monitor

The UltraWide 34WR50QK. They also have the 34WR55QK-B which is more expensive but has USB power delivery, a height adjustable stand and I believe speakers.

I second this if you're on a budget. It works well straight out of the box. Sure, it's no Apple Studio display, but for the $$ you can't beat it!

I just picked up a 34WR50QK-B to pair with my Ryzen 5 5600xt/RX 9060 xt. It was an upgrade from my old LG 2560x1080 ultrawide. I love it, it looks great and performs well for my needs. With that said, it is a VA panel, the old one was an IPS, I have no problem with this , but some people will due to the differences. I actually returned an MSI 180hz 1440p monitor because I did not like the aspect ratio, I missed the wide screen.

i like the spectrum and LG 34 to 38" 1440p 100hz+ VA and IPS panels, 1500-1800R theyre 200usd and awesome, huge value. 45 inches aren't good value. but also they're just not great for productivity actually. they're just big.

I have a 32 in curved 3440x1440 UW LG and I ended up setting up my 1080P monitor again beside it for screen sharing and music playlist control. WHY NOT BOTH?!

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.
