This OLED type has bad banding. In my pictures it’s trying to display solid grey but it shows as different shades. The severity lessens over time if you set it to max brightness and leave bright HDR content going all the time but it’s a hassle and I don’t know if they all end up looking perfect. Its probably best to get a Samsung OLED because they don’t have this issue and they are a conventional aspect ratio.

I’ve become a consistent investor in purchasing LG displays because I simply cannot find better picture quality and build anywhere else. I use LG monitors on both of my setups, Mac and PC, and both monitors are always live up to expectations in terms of clarity and performance. My current 45” curved UltraGear monitor is still my number one monitor for work and gaming, it just makes my more efficient and gaming more enjoyable. This new LG UltraGear 34” curved monitor holds the same outstanding of LG’s reputation and carries the same level of perfection. It is packed with most essential features needed for both productivity and gaming domains with no compromise. The Packaging arrived undamaged and in perfect condition, which is good since this is an OLED screen and tends to be fragile everything needed for a quick and easy setup is included: The monitor, base and stand,1 HDMI cable, 1 DisplayPort cable, 1 Power cable, USB Type-C Cable. The process of assembling the monitor is no sweat and tools free, attaching the base to the stand only requires tightening a single screw by hand. The built-in cable management cutout on the stand is convenient to run the cables through. I turned on my PC and voila! I played a movie, and the first impression was breathtaking. The colors are incredibly vivid and everything on the screen looked alive, and they just need a soul to start speaking. The OLED screen with the 800R curvature adds an amazing immersive experience. It feels like I am wrapped up by the screen, and I can easily see the whole screen without needing to turn my head. Screen resolution is 3440×1440 resolution at 240Hz refresh rate and ultra-fast 0.03 ms response. The three components generate outstanding experience. I have been using it for productivity, gaming, and watching movies and the entire time I have been impressed by the picture quality and smooth motion. It also has built-in speakers but honestly, they do the job, but not next level, thus I used my own audio setup. I connected the monitor using HDMI 2.1 to get full 240Hz refresh rate. The text looks clean and easy to read. The screen wide real estate is enough to have multiple windows open side by side. I downloaded LG’s OnScreen Control software since this monitor does not come with remote to access more features such as split screen and choosing different modes in addition to keeping the monitor up do date. My overall experience has been excellent. This monitor is a state-of-the-art piece and offers cutting-edge tech with stylish design. I couldn't be happier with this monitor; it met my expectations, and I am fully satisfied with both its picture quality and performance.

I recently purchased an LG curved monitor, and overall, I’m very impressed with the experience. The curved design really enhances immersion, especially when gaming or working on multiple windows. It feels more natural on the eyes compared to a flat screen, particularly during long sessions. The picture quality is excellent—sharp resolution, vibrant colors, and solid contrast. Whether I’m streaming videos, editing documents, or playing games, everything looks crisp and detailed. The wide screen also makes multitasking much easier, reducing the need for a second monitor. Another standout feature is how sleek and modern the design is. It fits well into my workspace and doesn’t take up too much room despite the larger display. Setup was straightforward, and the on-screen controls are user-friendly. On the downside, the built-in speakers (if included in your model) are just average, so I’d recommend external speakers or headphones for better audio. Also, depending on the model, adjusting the stand can be a bit limited. Overall, the LG curved monitor offers great value for the price. It’s a solid choice for both productivity and entertainment, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their setup.

Check my pictures. When I first turned on the monitor, vertical lines were already visible. It took two OLED image cleanings to fix them. Then, within a day, a new issue appeared—a blinking green and blue line in the corner. Cleaning only fixes it temporarily before it comes back. This should not happen with a brand-new product. Very disappointed with LG’s quality control.

This is a fantastic ultrawide OLED monitor. It looks great in both SDR and HDR, but HDR content really shines on it. I have a couple of minor gripes with the stand and the mounting, but the display itself is excellent. The stand is assembled first and the base and column are in 2 pieces that are connected via a thumbscrew. The stand can be snapped into the back of the display and then be used as a handle to lift the monitor out of the box. The stand is quite wide and holds the monitor well - it allows for height, tilt, and swivel adjustments. The tilt adjustment is just to help with getting the display level and does not allow it to be rotated 90 degrees. The power, display, and USB connections are all inserted from the bottom and the stand has a cutout to feed the cables through. The cable management is pretty basic and no matter what I did I could not get the cables to not stick out the bottom of the monitor. I ended up swapping the stand out and just connecting this display to my monitor mounting arm. The monitor has a 100x100 VESA mounting pattern, though it’s recessed into the panel a bit and I did end up having to get some spacers in order to give my mounting plate enough clearance to slide onto the mounting arm. The power supply on this monitor is external and quite large. The monitor has 2 HDMI 2.1 display ports, 1 DP 1.4 port, 2 USB-A ports, a USB-C port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. The USB-C port functions as either a display input or a downstream port to the PC to enable the use of the USB-A ports. When used as a display input, the USB-C port can also provide up to 65W of charging to a connected laptop. I think 65W is a bit low, but it’s nice to see Power Delivery supported anyway. The box also includes HDMI, DisplayPort, and USB-C cables. On my initial boot up with this monitor I thought that I had a defective unit - there were 2 bright vertical spots going down the center of my screen. After changing a few settings and trying different inputs I ran the OLED screen cleaning procedure in the OSD and that solved the issue. It was a little disconcerting to see this issue right out of the box, but I haven’t had a problem since then. Getting a good HDR experience in Windows is really tough and when HDR is enabled in Windows desktop applications look AWFUL with very ugly colors. This is not an issue with the monitor itself, but more in how Windows handles (or doesn’t handle) HDR. I found that toggling HDR off while on the desktop things look just like they should. Colors are punchy, contrast is excellent, and the picture gets very bright, especially for an OLED. I know older OLED panels have had issues with text clarity and I saw none of that here, though I was never particularly sensitive to that issue before in the older panel generations. The experience is even better toggling HDR back on and playing games and video content that support it. LG lists this monitor as being good for up to 1300 nits of peak brightness, at least when using the Windows HDR calibration app, I was only able to adjust up to 640 nits, though this was fullscreen brightness. Settings adjustments are relatively sparse, but the menu is easy to navigate with the single button/joystick. I tend to prefer flat displays over curved, but the curve on this one is fine and it was not something I noticed much in game. The display is 34” measured diagonally, though being an ultrawide it is not as large as a 34” 16:9 display would be - it’s about as tall as a 27” monitor and around 30% wider. Overall I’m very happy with this display. If you’re looking for a bright ultrawide OLED monitor this fits the bill for sure. As always with OLED displays, the risk of image retention is technically there, though it seems to be less of a concern these days than it has been in the past.

This curved LG 34-inch OLED monitor has stunning display quality and the speed to keep up with high-paced gaming. The display was easy to assemble while still in the box. I snapped the stand onto the back and attached the metal base using the built-in thumb screw. No tools were necessary. It can also be VESA mounted if desired. The only remaining step after physical assembly was placing and connecting the power cord and input cables. The monitor ships with three cables: DisplayPort, HDMI, and USB-C. Input ports are located on the underside of the rear panel and include one DisplayPort, two HDMI ports, two USB-A ports, and one USB-C port. The ports are tucked neatly out of sight but can be a bit awkward to reach in tight spaces. There is also ornamental lighting on the rear that gives it a touch of flair. The display is moderately heavy, in part due to the solid metal base, but the monitor is sturdy and reliably stable despite its size and weight. The panel can tilt, swivel, and its height is adjustable on the stand. The power brick is large, roughly the same size as my gaming laptop’s power brick. Settings are controlled via a small joystick on the rear bottom of the display. Although the rear of the display is usually my least favorite position for a joystick, it isn’t as difficult to access and use as I initially expected. Everything from powering the display off to adjusting various settings is handled through the joystick. The QHD OLED panel has vibrant, richly saturated colors, true blacks, and excellent sharpness. The thin bezels give it an edge-to-edge immersive feel. I haven’t observed any defects or imperfections such as stuck pixels, lines, uneven tones, or other issues. The colors are bright and shading is uniform. It also includes burn-in prevention tools like pixel scrubbing and shifting to help protect the panel from static image persistence and burn-in. The monitor works well for daily desktop use, but is overkill if only intended for productivity and web browsing. However, desktop use does look fantastic when working in office productivity apps. Text is clear and easily legible when editing spreadsheets or documents. Photos and clip art look great, making it a good display for media production and editing. The only possible drawback may be that the heavily saturated colors could be an issue with professional media editing where accurately calibrated colors are typically required, but it's fine for casual photo/video editing. It also performs well for watching streaming content, though since it isn’t a smart display, content must come from an external source. The monitor has built-in stereo speakers which although not great, are sufficient if no other sound options are available. Gaming is where the monitor truly shines. It is both FreeSync and G-SYNC compatible and handles fast-paced gaming with ease. Thanks to a refresh rate up to 240Hz, 0.03ms response time, and sharp resolution, action remains clear and ghost-free. The display has dedicated gaming modes, and the refresh rate can be adjusted on the fly. The TrueBlack 400 HDR provides realistic shadows and contrast, particularly during dark scenes in games. I don’t encounter any blooming or halo effect like I sometimes see on IPS displays. The LG Ultragear 34" OLED is an outstanding gaming monitor. The brightness is excellent, it's fast enough to keep pace with intense gaming, and the true blacks look spectacular compared to the grayish blacks of IPS or TN panels. It also comes with a two-year warranty. I haven’t been able to confirm whether the warranty includes burn-in, but I'm confident from past experience, the included burn-in tools, and what I've witnessed so far that I likely won't need it.

I'm going to keep it straight to the point. This monitor looks great, especially at first, for gaming and videos. But as you use it for anything other than gaming or media, that's when it starts to look very bad. The text quality is unacceptable for even the discounted price (got mine for 800ish after tax). The refresh rate is great; 240hz with near instant response time is amazing for games that can actually use all those frames the panel can display. Though, I'm coming from a relatively fast 160hz IPS panel, and the difference was slightly smoother. I'll say it like this: going from 160 to 240 didn't feel much different, but going from 240 back to 160 felt slightly less smooth. I will say, that unless your PC can output a consistent 240 fps in games, you would otherwise be wasting your money here since you wouldn't be using the 240 hz. This is an OLED panel so the blacks and dark colors look great, but I personally didn't see a difference in normal or lighter colors, just the darker ones. It's important to note that I am colorblind so this may just be due to that fact and the game's limitations in which I got this monitor for (overwatch). While I was extremely eager to snag this monitor, I was left disappointed. It was supposed to be an upgrade but I found myself choosing things to like about it despite the things I didn't. My PC with near latest hardware couldn't keep at steady 240 fps which meant dips down to 180 and what not really made this feel bad. When you're spending near 1k for a monitor upgrade, you would obviously want to feel like you're getting an upgrade. This, for me, felt like I was tiny upgrade to black and dark colors for 800 bucks... Not a great thing for me. Seeing the non gaming use was awful for when I was actually trying to get work done. I was extremely disappointed but I ended up returning this monitor because it didn't feel like the right upgrade. Maybe in the future I will revisit the newer generations of OLED monitors, but at this time, the technology still needs more work.

The screen is great and the base is sturdy. I like that it has a usb c port so I can directly plug my macbook into it. Every now and then the screen gets noticable vertical lines but if you do the 10 minute screen cleaning function through the OSD it goes away. This is concerning to me but could also just be some feature of newer OLEDS, my Samsung TV has never done this though. Time will tell that's why I'm docking a star.

Works really good I really liked it, is a good price quality monitor, if you have lines in your screen you will probably need to do a oled cleaning from the menu of the monitor, just needs calibration most of the times

Incredible smoothness and vibrant colors. The 34" OLED panel offers perfect blacks and a 240Hz speed that completely changes the gaming experience. Highly recommended."

Great image and refresh rate. Specially for the price. Got an almost half price discount for being the one in display

Never used an ultrawide monitor and I would never go back. I needed something for both gaming and work, and this was a perfect choice. It’s very well made, has plenty of connection options, and the picture is bright and clear. My only regret is waiting so long to upgrade from my last gaming monitor.

great monitor for at its price point. Colors are vibrant, the OLED allows for amazing contrast and the curve is spot on for the monitors size

Huge step up from my older LCD panel. Colors are vibrant and the refresh rate is absolutely improved.

Good monitor, color is good and the responds time is good. Gaming on 240hz is just snappy. The issue I did not keep the monitor is because of the curvature. 800R is too much for such a small monitor. It make sense for larger monitors but not 34”. The monitor has a clean design and over good quality build. I end up getting the LG 45” instead. Good amount more work space and the usage immersion is way better for not much more money.

I’m extremely pleased with this purchase. The monitor delivers a stunning display with vibrant colors and sharp graphics that make both gaming and productivity tasks a joy. Whether I’m immersed in fast-paced gameplay or working on detailed projects, the performance is consistently smooth and reliable. Beyond functionality, the sleek design adds a touch of sophistication to my desktop setup, making it as attractive as it is practical. Overall, this monitor combines style, power, and versatility into a highly satisfying experience.

I got this on black Friday with my best buy credit card. I’m extremely happy with my purchase! I use it for my pc and ps5. I can’t believe how compatible it is with console gaming. The picture quality is superb! One you go Oled, you’ll never go back!

This monitor is hands down the best monitor I have used and thats coming from an Alienware 32 the curve is agressive 1800 but the picture and HDR and sound all make up for it! Great purchase!!

Beautiful color expression, sharp and clear text and amazing response. I am still getting used to the wrap around effect which is kind of growing on me. Still a little to curvy but im sticking with it. One thing to note, decent frame rate drop due to the extra pixels being powered by the gpu. This will eventually be awesome on a sim rig!

This monitor is simply the best monitor I have ever purchased. High refresh rate lot response time. It is compatible with GSYNC so gaming on it is amazing. OLED screen looks amazing.
