    Very good for most applications

    I am happy with this purchase. I had a previous 34 inch LG monitor but the slim model. He died suddenly, so I got this one. I hope it lasts longer because I'm not used to computer hardware just randomly breaking down. The resolution is 3440 x 1440 on both the old and new monitors. That compares very well to the old monitors, but I would pay a bit more for an even higher resolution if that were possible. The color and brightness of this monitor is good, and the stand is much better than the old…

    Very good display that I really like and recommend

    When I bought the 34WL85C-B there were very few if not no reviews online (no Revain, no Reddit etc) as it is a new model. That's why I decided to post a review here. This is a newer model which I believe is the successor to the 34UC88. It is very similar to the 34UC88 with some minor changes. First, I think the curvature changes from 1900mm to 1800mm, which means more curvature, although I highly doubt it's noticeable, and 1800mm is very standard too. They're both 8-bit + FRC, but the 34WL85C…

    WARNING. The PBP function does not work with two HDMI inputs.

    I bought this screen to use on two computers at the same time with the PBP (Dual Controller) function. I connected both computers via HDMI. After spending a lot of time troubleshooting, experimenting and on the phone with a (rude) LG support rep, I was told that in order to use the PBP feature, the input channels would need to be different, such as: B. an HDMI connection and a display port. This is clearly not what the videos on LG's website imply. Not a problem per se but now I have to buy…

    So much better than I expected. Actually fantasy.

    I've only had this monitor for a month. I am very happy that I ordered this model. It connected to my old lightweight 2014 laptop straight away. Setting up was easy. Screen clarity is excellent. Glare/reflections are not a problem. The sound is pretty good. The on-screen monitor control app is such a blessing - no need to fiddle with invisible buttons somewhere at the bottom. With the screen application, you can specify how windows are positioned on the screen or not the way you want them. In…

    The best monitor I've ever had!

    I love this monitor. I'm not a gamer and I don't use my computer for media so I can't speak on any of those aspects, but I'm very happy with this monitor for web browsing and general Windows applications. I was originally planning on getting 2 monitors with a 16:9 aspect ratio, but this gives me almost the same screen real estate without the annoying center tear and half the cables. distorted, but it is not. It's so thin I'm not sure if it's really necessary, but since I don't have a similarly…

    A software developer's dream

    Do you want VS Code, Jetbrains, Firefox and Chrome with 40 tabs to open from Stack Overflow and GitHub trouble pages? Then this monitor is for you. I specifically chose this model because of the matte screen. I bought this monitor in February 2020 and it is now December 2020. There were no dead pixels on arrival and only recently (like the last week of November) did I notice a black dead pixel with blur around it. Maybe it was because I hadn't slept for 47 hours and was writing the worst…

    Excellent monitor, the best in my rating

    I bought a 34 inch monitor. I like the monitor very much. I think the curvature is great, it feels natural to me. The brightness is just right for my use. Color and picture look very good. I like the adjustable stand, although it would be nice if it swiveled sideways. A lot of the negative reviews annoy me because they complain about features that are clearly advertised. You can't buy a 60Hz WQHD monitor and then write a review about the refresh rate being too high. is low or the resolution is…

    Great monitor for software development

    I am a software developer by trade and author of books on software development. In these roles, I want to see as much code, design documentation, integrated device control, and HMI as possible at the same time. It's not uncommon to have my chosen HMI running while it's running, watching the debug output in a terminal window, and controlling the remote device through the vendor's application. I always use 2 or 3 monitors to see as much as possible. As 2020 rolled around, I started working from…

    Arrived broken. Blue lines in the middle. To return.

    In general it seems a good monitor but mine arrived broken. I have attached his photo. When I bought it, it was $490. I wonder if they tried to get rid of faulty stock. Maybe I don't buy "new" monitors that have been on the market for 3 or 4 years, probably already in stock, especially from LG. The speakers seemed to sound okay.

    Compatible with your gear

    I've used it and found it kills my laptop. I felt like I had compatibility issues where it sometimes didn't show up when an HDMI was connected. It kept showing "NO SIGNAL" and after a reboot it sometimes came back on and sometimes didn't. Anyway, in the end I couldn't figure out what was going on, but the point is that this is LG and capitalizes on its brand, whether your hardware is compatible or not, you're going to have to pay big bucks.

    Great monitor for everyday use

    I will say that I don't use my monitor for gaming, mainly for watching Netflix and working in the office. I like everything about this monitor except for 2 small complaints: 1) Doesn't accept USB-C input despite the latest high-end monitors. 2) When using the monitor for sound on a Macbook, you cannot control the volume on the monitor
