Description

With the LG UltraWide 34WQ73A-B monitor, you can work with a good overview and precisely at your home office. The monitor has a slight curve, so the distance to the screen is the same everywhere. Thanks to this panoramic effect, it's like you're right in the middle of your own creations. The combination of the QHD resolution, HDR10 support, and 99% coverage within the sRGB color space ensure lifelike and colorful images when you're editing. Do you work from a laptop? No problem. Connect it via the USB-C port and organize your desk with 1 cable. In addition, the port charges your device while you work, so you always have a full battery. The ultrawide aspect ratio provides 33% more screen space than a regular monitor. So you can open Adobe Photoshop and InDesign next to each other, without having to switch windows.

Shame

  • Nice quality
  • Easy to adjust
  • Beautiful design
  • USB-C port poor quality
Nice monitor, but after a few months the USB-C port stopped working and I could not connect my macbook anymore. If you google this problem you will find many topics with the same problems. Sometimes it works to remove the power cable for a few minutes, but for me the USB-C port seems to be broken unfortunately...
