I have a 34" LG ultra wide. If you are working with Windows, there are built in shortcuts that help.


<Windows Key>+ <right arrow> will make an application take the right side of the screen. +<left arrow> left side. <up arrow> top half, taking the full width.


I usually run application side-by-side using left and right arrow shortcuts, thus have two nice sized windows on the screen at once.

Curved televisions are a gimmick. Monitors, where you sit significantly closer, are much different.

VA panels also have image degradation at large angles. Curved VA panels negate this.

I've been very pleased with my curved monitors both for productivity and gaming. I definitely wouldn't call it a gimmick. To each their own.

Nah. Curved is a gimmick. I prefer lack of distortion in my images. Thank god the curved tv trend is all but over. Curved only really makes sense if you're in an imax theatre

Think about how close you sit to a monitor. A curved screen actually makes the images less distorted because the screen is angled more directly toward your eyes and the distance from the screen to your eyes is more even all the way across the screen. With a large ultra side non-curved screen, especially with a VA panel, your images can look a lot different toward the edges vs in the center.

This effect is taken a step further in case you're considering running two ultra wides like this side by side. With curved screens you can have a nice rounded/flowing affect from one screen to the next and they wrap around you. With flat screens, they either have to meet in the middle at a sharp angle, or else the far edges of each screen are going to be a lot dimmer looking than the middle.

I have this for CAD work. It's fine without the curve. And being able to put documents side by side on a large screen is a game changer for WFH. For 300 it's a solid deal.
The 2nd HDMI with PIP is convenient if I want to watch some TV while working.

I like my Sceptre 35" and purchased it for the same $379 price 2 weeks ago. Exactly the same picture quality as replaced Acer IPS 1440p monitor I had. I am very pleased with it, all aspects. Sitting in front of it right now. I generally don't like VA and prefer IPS but this time it was a charm. My first curved panel and I love that part too.

2 HDMI inputs and PIP. Am I safe to assume this would let two laptops show an image on each side of the screen (DJ use).
