“I recently upgraded my workspace with the LG UltraWide QHD 34-Inch Curved Computer Monitor (34WQ73A-B), and I must say, it’s been an absolute game-changer. The expansive 34-inch curved display has not only enhanced my productivity but also transformed my entertainment experience. With its QHD resolution, the clarity and detail in images are nothing short of stunning, making every task from editing documents to watching movies a real pleasure.The monitor’s ultra-wide aspect ratio is perfect for multitasking, allowing me to seamlessly work on multiple windows side by side without any compromise on space. This has significantly reduced my need to switch back and forth between applications, saving me both time and effort. The color accuracy and brightness levels are impressive, providing vibrant and consistent colors across the entire screen.Ergonomically, LG has hit the nail on the head with this model. The adjustable stand and the curve of the monitor make for a comfortable viewing experience, even during long hours of use. This has been a boon for my posture and overall comfort at the desk.The connectivity options with USB-C, HDMI, and DisplayPort are ample for my needs, making it easy to connect various devices without a hitch.While the monitor is nearly perfect, there’s always room for improvement. The menu navigation could be more intuitive, and an increase in refresh rate would be welcome for those heavy into gaming. Nevertheless, these are minor quibbles in what is otherwise an outstanding product.In conclusion, the LG UltraWide QHD 34-Inch Curved Computer Monitor (34WQ73A-B) is a fantastic addition to any workspace or home office. It offers superb visual quality, a comfortable viewing experience, and a sleek design that would complement any desk setup. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking to enhance their computing experience. Five stars well deserved!”

I am writing this review after experiencing the monitor for couple of months to ensure that my review is well rounded and includes all the points one need to know of while making a decision to purchase this monitor.The context of my purchase:1. The pandemic has ensured that a lot of people like me are working from home. At some point we all feel two things (at least I felt): a. The laptop screens are too small for multi screen working b. The switching between work and personal laptops becomes a spot of bother.2. Depending on our pastime hobbies, we need a monitor that can help us work on a bigger screen as well as let us do our hobby related things on the same monitor. Photography is my hobby and and I process really large photographs on a regular basis besides constantly working from home.So an ideal scenario for me was to get a monitor that supports high resolution so I can see my large photos with decent clarity and also lets me work with multiple screens side by side. I went back and forth between a lot of monitors before deciding to buy this one.One reason I went for the ultrawide is that the height of the ultrawide monitors are less than the non-ultrawide due to the 16:9 ratio. This allows me to look straight into the monitor without craning my neck.Now specifics about the monitor:1. IPS panel and hence really crisp display corner to corner, great colors and sharpness.2. Supports high resolution laptops. I have a mac mini 2020 with dedicated graphics card. I love the way this monitor displays everything on the mac mini.3. Unpacking and setting up was a breeze.4. The screen splitting software is awesome. Allows you to split the screen in 2, 3 or 4 sections. Once installed on your laptops, you select the split you want and that’s it. As soon as you drag a specific application, the split window borders immediately appear and let you just drop the screen into the section you want and the application snugly fits into that section. I love this part actually.Now the difficulties I had to achieve the setup I was looking for.1. You can connect wireless keyboard and mouse straight into the monitor. Those devices get attached to the laptop you connect to the monitor without any issues.2. However, the monitor only has 1 USB-C port. So if you have two high resolution computers to attach to the monitor, you can’t connect simultaneously. You have to keep taking the cable off one and put on another to get the display. This is not the solution I was looking for.3. The HDMI ports don’t bring up high resolution display. My Mac Mini doesn’t even show anything on the monitor when connected to the HDMI port. My work Windows laptop shows a display on HDMI port, but with resolution so low that it is not usable.4. If you use a Display cable on the Display port, then you only throw the display to the monitor but you don’t get the advantage of sharing the keyboard and mouse through the monitor.So, I tried all the permutations and combinations to make it work so I can have both my work and personal computers connected to the monitor and I can switch between the two with the display select button of the monitor. Alas, didn’t work out. If only LG had two USB-C ports on the monitor.So after a lot of research, I bought this KVM switch that allows me to go back and forth between my two computers with the press of a button:https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B08F42NXGC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1It is a pricy solution, but it finally achieved the setup I wanted. Now my two computers are connected to the switch along with the wireless keyboard and the mouse and the switch sends the display to the monitor through a dedicated display (HDMI) cable. I switch between my two computers with the button on the switch.I know it is more than just reviewing the monitor. But I am sure a lot of you want to have a similar setup at home and I wanted to write this to ensure that you know what you are getting into. Hope this helps.

I love the stand that comes with the monitor. very sturdy and has a good amount of vertical adjustment and a little tilt. the instruction manual is garbage…. i’m not even sure they were included in the box, i ended up just downloading it from their website, instructions are Ikea style. pictures and step #s without any explanation. good thing that to get it setup is to simply connect the 3 parts together, which was fortunately pretty self explanatory but it would have been nice if they used words (in english) to better explain the steps and not just pictures to figure out.If you are worried about the ‘curve’, no worries, it’s very subtle and you can’t tell the difference when using it. I love how this version that i bought, had the USB C hub. I was able to connect my wife’s Macbook which only had 2 USB-C ports and nothing else (no power, no HDMI) and i was able to connect it directly to the monitor’s USB C port and i got not only the video/audio connection but it provided enough Power to the Macbook. So instead of using both of the Macbook’s USB-C ports for power and display connection, i only use a single cable directly to the monitor for everything. This is amazing for my wife as she brings the Macbook back and forth to home/work daily. Makes things easier for her. ***Do NOTE, that when i used the included Macbook USB-C cable, the Display connection did not work and i couldnt figure out why. UNTIL i used the monitor’s included USB-C cable to connect and it finally worked. I think the other USB-C cable was not capable to handle both the power and the video/audio but the monitor included cable was. So use that instead. It’s probably higher spec or newer version to support everything.The viewing angles are really good. That’s why i went with the IPS screen instead of a lower price on sale ‘gaming’ VA monitors. Better for the websites/spreadsheets.

I have a vertical monitor setup with a 34″ same size lg ultra wide but at 1080p vertical res instead of the 1440p seen here. I replaced one with the 1440p on the bottom and the 1080p old one on top and while similar dimensions this qhd looks much much better. I was initially against qhd because the regular 16:9 ones looked too tiny in font so i always stuck to 1080p no matter how wide it got. Fast forward to 2023 and being a godot developer on linux i saw a night and day difference in readable space using a friends monitor so i jumped the gun here to get a feel for 1440p ultra wide.For reference my usage here was to be used mainly for programming and browsing. But i could not risk the va panels no matter how tempting 49″ ultra wide are because of va smearing is inescapable. Here the tried and true ips 34″ lg ultra wide. No ghosting no smearing and colors even better than my old 34″ 1080p ultra wide. No screen tearing on a amd minipc or setup needed. I ran a hdmi and purposely keep refresh to 60hz even if monitor is higher because ive learned that it doubles electricity usage for no reason if you don’t need it for every day use. Ran some emulators from dolphin to yuzu and all ran perfect on ubuntu no screen or frame issue. No dead pixels either thankfully.Vesa mount is located higher than the previous unit so i had to adjust my clamp on the vertical pole.The power cable is a legit 3pin pc power cable. No brick so that was a relief.HOWEVER the only con i can see is the mounting points are too far down to the bottom. If you’re looking for a clean 100″ floating unit with cable management you need right angle cables. Find a right angle power and hdmi/dp otherwise youll hang cables down below the bottom cutoff line of the monitor. Literally not an issue just a struggle as usual for us cable management nuts but easily remedied.Another perfect banger out of lg. Their ips panels are truly perfection. Va panels however.. lol lets not go there

Este monitor me proporciona lo que andaba buscando, tener más espacio para poder trabajar con múltiples ventanas. La calidad de imagen se ve bien. Lo utilizo para trabajar en Photoshop y me anda estupendo. En juegos casi no lo he probado, pero si no eres muy exigente en juegos como yo, este monitor está bien. Lo he probado con Resident Evil 2 Remake y me funciona perfectamente.
