Super Wide Gaming Monitor

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The next level of gaming has arrived with LG's new miracles 49 inch Extremely Ultra-wide Gaming Monitor. The monitor came nicely packaged with the essential cables to connect this beast of a monitor to my high end Rig. After setting up the monitor and turning it on for the first time, I had to step back as my smile grew as wide as the monitor figuratively speaking. I couldn’t wait but fired up a game of GTA and was amazed how much more I can see within the game. The 240 Hz just made it so buttery smooth playing on this 49inch UltraGear Monitor. As nice as the monitor is for gaming, I also love how much screen real estate I have now. I can multitask like never before with Adobe Photoshop, browsing the internet, Word and so much more. On my old monitor I would have to move apps around in order to adjust for productivity. Now that’s in the past thanks to this extremely Ultra-Wide monitor. I am glad I made this purchase to help utilize it best for multitasking, recreational and so much more.

I do not use this for gaming but for my work. I love the wide format so I can see multiple windows at one time. So far I love this monitor.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my monitor for gaming, and so far I've had a great time using it. It's wide enough to comfortably have two windows open and readable, but not so wide that it's uncomfortable to use. The resolution of the monitor is great. I haven't had any issues with this monitor, and for the price, it's a great option.

At 3440x1440 @144Hz I have to say this is the most beautiful sight I have seen in my 25+ years of gaming. This VX3418-2KPC monitor makes my last monitor look washed out and "grainy." The colors are vibrant and my games just look better. The stand that this monitor comes with is super heavy-duty and very wide...it is almost as wide as the monitor itself! 5 stars!

This is a really wide monitor perfect for work. I realize it is packaged as a gaming monitor but it has a wonderful amount of room on the screen to jump between several different tabs and tasks. Highly recommend it!

I don't use this for gaming. I just wanted a monitor that would allow two windows to be open side by side. I find this wide monitor better than two separate smaller monitors. I had to turn the brightness down, otherwise the default settings are fine. The only confusing thing for me was all the different model numbers, for what appear to the same monitor. LG should simplify their line.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This gaming monitor is super simple to set up. I set it up with my laptop to enjoy gaming on this big 27 in screen and WOW! It makes my games look fantastic and the sound works great. I wont game any other way now.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my new monitor! I was looking for something bigger than my laptop screen and the size of this monitor is just what I needed . It is super easy to connect and use. I turned it into my daily use monitor. Gaming or working, doesn't matter, you will be amazed by the vivir colors and the clarity of the screen. The speakers are enough. The USB - C connection is super convenient and functional. I am very happy with my purchase and highly recommend the LG UltraGear 32UQ750-W Gaming Monitor.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This gaming monitor has a super fast refresh rate and amazing response time.

The monitor itself is super impressive. One can choose between the HDMI and the Display port, and choose for it to either stand on the desk or be mounted onto a wall. At first, I have opted for the former, but unfortunately, it ended up claiming almost half of my desk. It might work better with a corner one however. As for mounting it, this was quite a feat! But it worked great. Once the monitor gets to work, it is truly a sight to behold. I have tried connecting it to both my laptop and my computer. While the latter had of course better results as far as for example vivacity of colours goes, it didn’t do too shabby even when connected to a laptop (although, naturally, one can see and feel the difference between the employed graphics cards). Work 12/10: I work in translation, so I often need to have several reference documents as well as dictionaries pulled up. In this regard, this monitor is unbeatable as it manages that and more, with no fuss or problems, mainly thanks to the "Samsung Easy Setting Box" which enables custom screen splitting, so that you can have different windows in predefined areas. While this sounds good as a concept, it does not work that well in practise as it bugs a bit. Free time: Gaming - let’s be honest, this monitor is in a category of its own. The overall picture quality is incredible, as is the depth of colours. 100-120 FPS is no problem, which translates into a truly immersive gaming experience. As far as watching movies and videos goes, this is something that needs getting used to, as there are bound to be some chunky black bars. However, this small drawback hardly outweighs all the positives. To wrap up, it does excellent what it was made to do – gaming – but is nowhere near shabby when it comes to arranging your work either. The single pane really spoils you, as opposed to working across two monitors, and I am not sure I would ever be able to go back!
