I bought this monitor and the Ergear arm mount based on your reviews. Couldn’t be happier and I’m not going back to 16:9.

[@Priam66]

Thank you, just picked this up on Boxing day 2022 and was nervous that the monitor was too old and out of date but this review reassured me and now I'm even more excited! Great review

[@Just_A_Dude]

Love the review, and thank you very much for it. I was down to waffling between this and the ASUS ROG Stryx XG349C, and you being able to so enthusiastically recommend it after years of use has made my decision easy. I can hardly wait for it to show up.

[@joenovak6393]

Thank You for the updated review. Right now, on Amazon-Prime Early Access Day...$599.99. WOW and purchased.

[@Revolutionized]

Thank you sir for such a comprehensive video demonstration. I watched it and I bought mine today from Amazon brand new just for the $600 (on a monthly based payment plan for five months). The current deal was that good that I could not delay in my final decision any longer.

[@chasewalker3924]

I got mine about the same time! Was considering between the LG and the new Alienware QD-OLED but for the price the LG is hard to beat.

[@Revolutionized]

@@chasewalker3924 One of my friends bought that Alienware OLED a few months ago for more than $1K and in less than a month the monitor screen was broken like half of the screen display was messed up with random colors without any permanent solution. He asked for warranty coverage and his claim was denied after weeks of waiting and following up. A lot of money right in the garbage can! I hadn't heard stuff like this from LG.

Dude... stunning review. I ordered mine yesterday and I am ecstatic. You earned a sub with this thorough and fair review. You have made my purchase a concrete decision and I will have ZERO buyers remorse. Thanks!!

Have you noticed any in-panel damage since ordering? I had to return my not even day old model yesterday because 2 perfect single pixel wide lines ran vertically and horizontally. I reordered, as it's the prettiest monitor I've ever owned and want that UW, but ick.

[@goradhen]

Got mine back in Nov 2021 Amazon lighting deal for 799$ CAD (was 300$ off). Absolutely no complaints. I don't care or use HDR though. Gsync being "supported" rather than gsync equipped scared me but it works just fine. No stutter, no tearing. Can't see myself upgrade unless the RTX4000 series can push 120fps + at 4k in demanding games. 3440x1440 is gonna be hard to move from.

[@lil_mixdrink]

Are there any drawbacks that you don't like? Does the 21:9 become annoying at all?

[@wiznat10]

@@lil_mixdrink For me there are no drawbacks. The only thing I could see being a negative is if you had to choose btw only one 21:9 monitor or two 16:9 monitors because of desk space. If you are gaming a lot its always better to have a separate screen for your game and another screen for other tasks. I still have another 16:9 screen off to the side for other tasks when I'm using the ultrawide for gaming. But if space was limited I'd rather have the 2 16:9's then just 1 ultrawide.

I have also been using this monitor since about July of 2021. It is by far the best monitor I had ever used... I recently got the Alienware OLED but I still recommend this monitor to my friends.

[@KevinGoldLVL]

Since you have own both of them, I am currently considering switching to ultrawide, should I go for the LG which is 800$ cad right now or put the double and get the Alienware, so around 1600$ cad? I'm still using a 27" 1080p IPS 144hz LG so either way I think I the difference will be mind blowing since I manly play single player games! But I really want to know if the Alienware worth double the price of the LG, because right now the LG price is really appealing, but the oled displays colors and darkness looks so good even on my phone, and I don't mind paying premium if it's really worth it, because I keep my stuff for the long run.

keep it up! your videos are very helpful!

[@fonolavalencia]

This is the best review. I was hoarding money to buy an ultrawide and this video made me realize my money was well put on LG's ultrawide, I used to do ultrawide 29" 2560x1080 on an LG back in 2011 when they appeared. It's beeen almost 4 years since I 'upgraded' to 27" 16:9 QHD, but we all ultrawide fans know that once you go ultrawide, you never go flat. Got it for 649$ on sale, which is the best price ever and it's excelent for a premium ultrawide. I almost got the Gigabyte M34Q which is flat, but all the reviews praised how great the pixel response is on this, and when you do so much research for a monitor upgrade, you know that is better to have great pixel response, rather than a 240hz IPS S 32" QHD display (almost got the Aorus FI32Q X, but that was before knowing the LG 34GP sale price. Long live to ultrawide, will upgrade when we get a descent OLED ultrawide at 800-1000$ price range, which is going to happen in a couple years due to mass production, OLED are gaining more fans. PS: I will upgrade from 3080 12gb's to 4080 for sure, or even AMD's equivalent if it's better.

@@mrwalker6026 Honestly my biggest issue is the black bars on the side when playing PS5.. For Work and PC gaming its amazing.. but I mainly game on PS5 and the bars drive me nuts dude

[@mrwalker6026]

@@BillyBets oh yeah 16:9 better for console gaming for sure

[@mrwalker6026]

@@BillyBets once you've played games like RDR2,Horizon Zero Dawn and God of War in Ultrawide 21:9 it's hard to go back..lol

"You're not going to hook up consoles here" 😢😞😭😭 I wanted to play my ps5 and xbox playing 120 fps until I save up enough for my 5k pc

what is the difference between this and LG 34GN850-B?

[@TypeCTechReviews]

They are essentially the exact same.

[@andrehall5747]

There is no difference other than the 34GN850-B comes with a Displayport cable in the box. I have the 34GN850-B as well. Did a lot of research and found out both are basically the same display.

[@mrwalker6026]

Rtings says the 34gn850 has slightly higher brightness and quicker response times...could be panel variance though

[@FuIIDiveVR]

@@mrwalker6026 850 is the higher quality panel. Same but higher QC batch.

[@mrwalker6026]

@@FuIIDiveVR ok yeah pretty happy with my LG 34gn850 and have been using it daily for 6 months now...I'd only upgrade at this point if there was a 240hz Ultrawide 3440x1440p Oled

Can I not use this monitor for my ps5?

[@saintsrobbed6450]

You can use it but I think the image will either be stretched or have black bars

[@MankySwift]

you can he's merely pointing out consoles haven't really adopted the 21.9 aspect ratio so most games will display black bars either side of the image..but sure it will work its a display panel at the end of the day

[@Aaron31909]

This monitor has an issue with DisplayPort deep sleep. I wouldn't recommend it.
