LG - 49WQ95C-W

I had the same question a few years ago and went with the LG 49WQ95C-W. It equates to two 27-inch screens. I thought I'd game on it more, but it's been a workhorse for research and documentation. It has a built-in KVM. I push through the two HDMI ports on my work laptop. The bonus of that set-up is that the laptop sees two separate screens, so when I screen share, I have one side all nice and pretty, and the other has all my notes. I was going to use the DisplayPort for gaming, but I haven't gamed in about a year or more.

LG 49WQ95C-W - 49", 100% SRGB, 98% P3, 5ms, 144hz, Nano IPS Black, USB-C Power Delivery, 3800R curve so only slightly curved and not wrap around. Got one 2 weeks ago, screen is crystal clear :-)

I am using an LG 49” 120hz curved monitor on my m4 Mac mini. Works fine. No issues, I’m using an 8k hdmi cable

The LG has all 3 so whatever you want.

I recently purchased the 49 inch LG and have regrets - excellent picture but not curved enough for such a wide monitor. I’m forever leaning left or right rather than just turning my head.

I prefer a single ultrawide cause you don't have any bezel in the middle or a side monitor and a main one. I'm using a 49" ultrawide monitor (LG)

Yeah I got a 49" 5100x1440 monitor. Its good in some ways but not the best thing ever tbh. Main issue is RL fits to the width, so you lose top and bottom visibility. The icons (boost meter/score etc) are correctly placed Replays default to 16:9 but are also fitted to the width of your screen, meaning the sky and half your car is cut off. Car feels much faster too. My car feels super slow when I switch to a 16:9 window. *

I have an LG UltraGear 49" 5120x1440 monitor that I used with an M1 for a while and never noticed an issue with text. I edited video on it for several months before I moved to Black Magic Resolve on my gaming PC. Only thing I can think is play with the scaling a bit to find what suits your visual preference. Maybe those complaining have the scaling set to high or something.
