I have one for the office and love it. I'm an IT Architect and it works very well for me. I'm in tech docs, visio diagrams, spreadsheets, architecture views and models, view code sometimes, and general office apps all day. I use a 2nd 1080p monitor for screen sharing on conference calls. Text sharpness and screen brightness in a well lit office space with both natural and fluorescent lighting is fine.

I tried an LG48CX prior and did not like having to tilt my head back to view content on the top half of the screen. Caused me neck pain. I much prefer to look side to side with an ultra wide curved screen.

At home I use a Dell U3818dw. Since I don't code I don't benefit from 1600p as much and actually prefer the 49" ultrawide. Image and text quality in the Dell is probably better but I can't tell without doing an A/B side by side comparison.

On the 49" I use Microsoft PowerToys to create 3 equal side by side zones for docking my windows which works awesome.

I do miss the KVM and USB-C on my Dell though.
A few reviews that might be of interest …

First one is pretty basic and the second goes deeper into technical aspects with more of a gaming slant. Third has input from someone using it for media editing in a recording studio.

Doesn't this have a KVM? Isn't that what the two inputs and two outputs for USB are?

Shows 688.49 here, but still a great discount.


Is there any difference between this model LC49RG90SSNXZA and Costco's LC49RG92SSNXZA?

Go to discount program, select education discounts and then shop now. It will say $849 but when you add it to cart $663.
