I’m really impressed with the AOC CU34G2XP 34" curved monitor. The picture quality is super sharp, colors are vibrant, and the curved ultra-wide screen makes gaming and multitasking feel so much more immersive. The 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time make games look incredibly smooth with no stuttering or screen tearing—FreeSync works great.
It also surprised me how useful it is for productivity. I can have multiple windows open side-by-side without needing a second monitor. The design is sleek with a sturdy stand, and the black/silver/red look gives it a nice gaming vibe without being too flashy.
Overall, this is a great monitor for both gaming and everyday use. Definitely recommend it if you’re upgrading from a standard 1080p screen—you’ll instantly see the difference!

I have been using this monitor for over a month now and honestly I can't go back. To explain how my set up is now I have the AOC front and center, above it I have a 24 inch Asus monitor used for as second monitor and to the right i have a 27 inch monitor set as a vertical monitor that is used for Discord and coding.
The AOC monitor change's the way I have been gaming it open's the world of immersive gaming with the ability to run games at 3440x1440 at 180fps. ALl of my games look so sharp! I know many people say if you are going to get a wide curved monitor then go for the ultra wide but in my opion its not worth it. This monitor give's you everything you need for an unforgetable price.

From the moment I powered up the AOC CU34G2XP, I knew I’d found the ultimate gaming companion. This 34" WQHD curved monitor pulls you right into the action with its expansive 3440x1440 resolution, creating a genuinely cinematic feel for any game or movie. The 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time translate into ultra-smooth gameplay—I’ve never experienced such responsiveness, even during chaotic online matches.
The VA panel delivers deep, inky blacks and vibrant colors, making everything from open-world adventures to competitive shooters look absolutely stunning. Add HDR 400 support and AMD FreeSync compatibility to the mix, and you’ve got a display that ensures fluid visuals with minimal tearing or stutter. Whether I’m exploring lush fantasy worlds or fine-tuning my aim, this monitor consistently impresses.
Setup was effortless, and the on-screen controls are user-friendly, letting me quickly tweak settings to match each game’s unique style. The sleek black, silver, and red design looks great on my desk, striking that perfect balance between high-tech sophistication and gaming flair.
If you’re serious about gaming and visual quality, the AOC CU34G2XP has everything you need and more. Once you’ve experienced this level of immersion, there’s no going back.

I got this monitor for work and wasn't sure what to expect, but it was super easy to set up and has a swivel stand, which is awesome, especially at such a great price. I think it's an excellent value for the specs you get—180 Hz, 1ms response time, AMD FreeSync, and really good colors. I also use it to watch videos occasionally, and they look smooth and great. Overall, it's a solid monitor.

Bought this the other day on sale. Great pricing and quality for sure. Build is great and features suit my needs perfectly. I especially love the built in usb hub. Picture quality is fantastic as well.
Now for the issues I'm facing and downsides.
•The buttons aren't terrible, just not intuitive to use to change settings.
•I've turned off any and all display settings related to automatic screen dimming/auto contrast. Turned off in windows, on the monitor itself, and in the downloadable settings menu from AOC. It continues to adjust the brightness and contrast constantly. I'm not using HDR, but testing that shows that it still does this when enabled. All I can say is that this is distracting and unnecessary. It's happening enough for me to justify a 3 star review as this hasn't happened with any other monitors I've owned.. so beware if this is something that annoys you.
Your feedback is very important to us, and it helps us maintain a fresh perspective on new ways to improve our services and future product developments.

Very good item, works very well. My daughter loves it and i'm looking to buy another one for myself. She has it connected to her pc and ps5 and the monitor can easily switch between the two. It has amazing quality. Also it can be put to your desired height which is a very good thing.

This monitor is awesome! The colors are super vibrant and look great no matter what I’m doing—gaming, working, or just browsing. The screen is really wide, so I can have a bunch of windows open at once, which makes multitasking so much easier. The resolution is super sharp, and everything looks really clear. Setting it up was super easy too—no stress at all. If you’re looking for a wide gaming monitor with great colors and tons of space to work with, I’d definitely recommend this one!

If you’re a gamer looking for a large ultrawide with high refresh rate and solid performance without dropping $800+, this is a fantastic mid-tier pick. For immersive games like Cyberpunk 2077, Elden Ring, or even productivity with wide screen real estate, it’s hard to beat at this price

Perfect for My Home Studio – Great Colors, Smooth Performance, and a Huge Upgrade”
I picked up this AOC 34-inch curved ultrawide to replace my old 49-inch monitor in my home studio, and this has been one of the best upgrades I’ve made in a while. The size is perfect — big enough for serious multitasking but not overwhelming on the desk. I run a full music production setup (Studio One, plugins, YouTube reference videos, etc.), and this monitor gives me all the space I need to keep everything visible at the same time.
The picture quality is excellent once you adjust scaling, and the colors are clean and accurate for video and DAW work. YouTube videos look great, and even 4K content downscaled to 1440p looks sharp on this panel. The 180Hz refresh rate makes scrolling, editing, and even light gaming feel smooth and responsive.
The curve is just right for studio work — immersive without distorting the screen. Build quality is sturdy, setup was easy, and it has plenty of ports for flexibility. The USB hub and audio output are also nice bonuses for managing cables in a busy workspace.
If you’re a music producer, content creator, or someone who multitasks a lot, this monitor is absolutely worth it. Great performance, great value, and it fits perfectly into a real working setup. Highly recommended.

I recently upgraded to the AOC CU34G2XP 34" Curved Gaming Monitor and couldn’t be happier with the performance. The ultrawide WQHD (3440×1440) resolution delivers stunning clarity and immersive visuals that make games, movies, and multitasking look incredible. The VA panel produces deep blacks and vibrant colors, and the 180Hz refresh rate combined with 1ms response time keeps gameplay buttery smooth with virtually no motion blur.
The curved design truly enhances immersion, making you feel like you’re inside the action rather than watching it. With AMD FreeSync and HDR400 support, screen tearing is minimized and HDR content looks noticeably richer.

I absolutely love this not too big not too small but perfect for my standing desk setup monitor. I’m so glad that the Best Buy sale recommended it bc I was looking for a budget friendly monitor that was I can connect seamlessly to my new Mac mini bc the Mac monitor was too pricey and would take a while to save for it. Im glad I waited for it to go on sale bc that made the purchase even more worthwhile bc it’s a great monitor for an even better price… win win!! The pop of red on the stand and bottom trim really makes this baby beautiful on my desk too… setup was a piece of cake …my daughter wants one now for her setup.

This monitor is great for the price. A big step up from 1080p. HDR is a must have for me now, everything is so much more vibrant. However, this monitor did come with a stuck pixel towards the top when I got it. After a few hours of use it corrected itself, though. It also gets pretty hot, but I assume that's normal for 1440p monitors? Overall, I'm very satisfied with this monitor.

After returning 34" LG, Acer monitors, I decided try one more time before I move to a higher-end monitors.
Considering additional options on this monitor, I decided to settle with this one.
2 DP, 2 HDMI, and 4 USB ports are my primary reasons select this one over the others: display brightness-wise, I didn't see much differences in all 3 monitors.
From my past experience, only monitor that survived after 10 years is the 29" LG ultrawide monitor but now the 34" one cost about $150 more than either AOC and Acer.
Although my old 2 Acer monitors (28" wide) only lasted about 2 months, and for 2 AOC (29" wide) - one broke in 2 month and other on lasted about 4 years after occasional use. Both of them had serious brittle screen issues- slightest bump, the screen cracks.
I think AOC has improved its quality and hope this one lasts longer than the 2 previous one: hopefully a lot longer.
BTW, AOC CU34G2XP doesn't have a set of integrated speakers as some online product description says. You need an external speaker or headset to hear the sound.
