If you're on the fence about an ultrawide or if you're trying to pick up something for office work, just get this one and ignore the haters if they pop up in this thread.

Is it going to compete with a Samsung OLED? No. Is it going to compete with the LG top end 34" ultrawide? No.

Is it the best ultrawide you're gonna get at $155 and be WAY BETTER than your 1080p 60hz 27" monitor you've had for 5 years? You betcha.

I bought 8 of these for my employees in IT a year ago, and they've been fantastic. Had one of them show up busted, but it was an easy return. They are a little dim out of the box, but it's because they're in some sort of low power mode.

Could not recommend more at this price point.

I just couldn't get used to the oddness of a 32 inch ultrawide curved monitor, and went back to 2 seperate 27 inch 16:9 monitors.

downsides I encountered:
-older games won't work without patches or workarounds, or won't work, at ultrawide resolutions. If you play alot of vintage games it's probably not worth the headaches.
-some hud elements are flung into distant corners, such as minimaps in RTS/MOBA type games, which is problematic
-Same with UI elements of some programs, like Pearson Vue testing worked horribly on an ultrawide

Personally - ive tried the UW and large monitors at home to replace my 2 27in ones at my office, but I much prefer 2 separate screens for work.

The snapping window panes on the same screen side by side is imho more of a pain then simply having two screens to move things to and from without affecting the items on the other.

Is it worth getting this at 300 nits or spending ~50% more for the nitro version that has 400 nits?

Not too familiar with what 300 will look like compared to the 400 is

Thinking of buying this monitor.. my only concern is how to share one half of the screen? I don't want to constantly minimize and resize the windows just before sharing. Is there an option where I can make the full width essentially 2 sections ie treat it like 2 half's like how a 2 monitor set up would allow? (Pls don't tell me to buy 2 monitors 😄)

Mountable? Can't see a good picture of the back of the monitor to see if it has the 4 holes for putting on a stand

Website says, "The VESA mount compatibility gives you the flexibility to mount the monitor to your preferred setup."

2k = 1440p buddy. You somehow think 2k means something else.

These are ultra wide 3k displays
3440x1440
Or UWQHD for short. Both are 1440p the P refers to to the amount of pixels vertical.

The 2k is referring to then to the vertical length horizontally. 2560x1440p aka QHD
You're right. I meant to say 3k. My bad buddy.

Point remains as being more demanding than your standard 1440p

what would be an ideal setup if you do a lot of screen sharing?

right now i have 2 dell 22 inches and 1 19 inch vertical monitor that has really bad brightness. right now, i leave one 22inch monitor "blank on the desktop" so i can drag things over when screen sharing. Ideally, it would be great to have the monitor that is had on be nicer than my Dell 22PH.
22 and 24 would scale fine. So that would be ideal. 27 and 32 you can probably getaway with it. The icons will start to look small to people with smaller monitors. Imagine if you are sharing with people that use laptops.

You can't just share half of a screen. You can share an active window though.

Windows key + left arrow or Windows key + right arrow. Will snap a windows to the left or right. Your screen will be split in half. You can also try Microsoft Power Tools.

It seems like this model is different than the one in Costco. I just confirmed with Acer that this model does not have PBP or PIP option, which is useful if you want to be able to split the screen and share one of them during teams meetings.

Macs have a great app called "Rectangles" that's awesome for splitting up areas of a wide monitor. We use Macs for work and it's been amazingly helpful.

Sidenote...if anyone can tell me how it compares to my current UW monitor and if it would be an upgrade...that would be dope.
