Review on Lenovo G34W 10 34" Curved Monitor, 3440x1440P, Height Adjustable, Anti-Glare Coating, Flicker-Free - ‎Model 66A1GCCBUS by Mark Tirrel

Revainrating 2 out of 5

This is a decent monitor.

This thing is huge and impressive, but features are lacking and poorly implemented. Freesync works and MPRT works (although it dims the screen a lot), but not at the same time! If you set up Freesync and then enable MPRT, Freesync will be disabled or vice versa. MPRT looks better in the UFO test, but the screen is so dim at 100% with MPRT that you lose that crisp white entirely. Response time is a whole rabbit hole, and the marketing is so confusing it's almost pointless. I use Freesync for my setup, not MPRT. If it wasn't for the flashy deal I got on this monitor on a better day, I wouldn't be leaving it. There are better monitors from LG and Samsung that are similarly priced. It's basically an inferior VA panel mated to an inferior PCB in a big boy case.

Pros
  • The curved panel gives you an immersive experience
Cons
  • Upgradable
