Ahhh this is my first slick deal. It's also my first ultrawide, and first curved monitor. I appreciate all the reviews here so far, so I'll give mine too. Take my opinion with a grain of salt. It arrived yesterday.

I got it because it seemed like high quality for a cheap price, and that's my take on it so far. I don't know if I'd even be able to tell the difference between an IPS and VA, but the screen seems good to me. It's definitely curved, but I think I would have liked more curve. The corners seem so far away. The colors are a little different at the corners, but that's because of viewing angle, not because of anything wrong with the panel. It looks correct when I move my head. The stand is good too, although I'll be replacing it with a monitor arm soon. I wish there was a faster way to change the brightness besides going through the menu with the joystick on the back.

The hub is convenient, but I'm already having a problem. Some of my devices worked in the USB-A slots (mouse, keyboard), but my ring light does not work. It flashes and turns off, when I try. The light is fine though, it works when I plug it directly into my laptop. Any clue what that's about?

Power, it needs more than its getting. In my experience hubs are the week point. I've had keyboards not work at all with my Dell WDC19 hub, my Lenovo one did something similar but it never worked with my Logitech K845.

I ordered, but haven't received yet. Clarifying question, is just the Ethernet affected by the USB 2.0 issue? Is webcam performance messed up if it wants usb 3.0? It looks there are two 3.0 ports on the back?

What game supports that? I couldn't even get Elden ring to do ultra wide
Most newer games do and quite a few older ones do support the 3 ultrawide screens and the resolutions I posted (7680 x 1080 or 1440 iwith AMD or Nvida) examples : Sniper Elite 5 , Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1-2 , Cyber Punk , Metro/all ver , Red Dead Redeption II , Subnautica , Fallout / all ver , Dishonered / all ver , ARK , Bio Shock / all ver , World of Warships , Remant From the Ashes , Borderlands / all ver , Kerbal Space Program / all ver , Thief ..... and a million / a ton more.................


Btw , I ordered a second one of these monitors as metioned earlier , to have all newer versions of the 34" Ultrawides and sell my older versions ..... supprised the deal is still ongoing . ~

Thanks OP for the post. Received it today and I was able to get it running. I am coming from an LG 34 2560 x 1080 ultrawide and this monitor is a huge step up. I didn't know I was missing the crispiness of 3440 x1440p! The slight curve is great and is better than flat for sure.

I was able to OC the refresh rate to 75hz so it match the same as my previous LG. I don't want to try higher OC and ruin the monitor.

If you use c-c cable connecting to the monitor, all USBs turn 2.0, something to do with c-c using DP Alt Mode. Not sure if any webcam actually demands 3.0 interface, and it doesn't use that much bandwidth, unless you are video conferencing at 4K 60FPS or something. Most people's internet speed is not much faster than USB 2.0 specs either.

So the biggest impact is if you have a home NAS, you speed is effectively cut in half. Gigabyte network on this thing is 100% false advertising for sure.

Anyone who might be looking for a versatile monitor arm, this one works perfectly: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07X48X...ct_details
I can move the monitor up and down with ease and it has a USB port on the base, which is a nice bonus. I have this mounted on the grommet hole of our sit/stand desk and it is great!

The same company also offers this one for $79, currently with a 30% off coupon: https://www.amazon.com/HUANUO-Ult...B0CMQN82K5 and it can hold even more weight, but does not have a USB Port on the base.
To note as well , if looking for a stand alone , fully adjustabe one (I use three of these stands and VERY HAPPY with them and they are extreamly sturdy).... try looking at these from Amazon (price is also xint) : http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/...=UTF8&th=1

I received my order today. The USB-C hub is excellent and gives me no troubles with Mac or Windows. This is important for me because I had other monitors with USB-C and always had trouble displaying to the monitor, some wouldn't recognize it right away and another would be hit or miss. After turning on HDR, the display got a lot brighter. The two side edges have this parallax-like effect. This is a common occurrence on past curved monitors I've experienced. The only curved monitor to not do this is to me is the OLED Samsung G85SB that I have next to this monitor. Unfair comparison, but comparing the OLED to this IPS, the OLED is much nicer for sure. But I'm not a gamer, and would rather save a few hundred dollars with this fantastic deal.

Received my monitor. Connected both Mac mini and MacBook Pro to the monitor. Somehow not able to move keyboard cursor from MacBook Pro to Mac Mini. Any drivers needed ? Not on VPN. MacBook is connected via usb-c, mini is connected via hdmi cable

You need to have the Mini (or whichever computer is using HDMI) also connected using the monitor's open USB-B port to the computer's USB-A port. You'll need to supply your own USB-A/B cable of course.

Received it today. The curve is so subtle and barely noticeable. In a way I like it. PBP is good however is skewz things vertically if you want to use full screen, it is not a problem particularly but the nature of splitting a 34inch uw.

For PBP/KVM if you have two laptops, at least one dock is needed for a single point connection.

Thanks for the reply. That's interesting. I don't get how it could power a laptop but not a light, but oh well. Do you have any ideas on a solution? I'm trying to minimize my workspace, particularly wires, so adding a hub (which I was trying to get rid of with this monitor) is not appealing, nor is having to plug/unplug in my light every time.
