Dell S2721QS vs LG 34UM68-P

For movies bigger is better, and higher resolution is better... I won’t stick to a 27” if I were you

To give you an idea of it's size, this monitor is similar in height (viewable) to my 27" 16:9 ViewSonic display. Because of it's width, the corner-to-corner is 34". If you are going to pair this with an existing 16:9 monitor, it is good to see how it will fit ascetically on your desk. If you want it to be as seamless as possible, compare the viewable vertical heights of both monitors (The bezel, or plastic boarder, is not as important in this case) Color reproduction is really good, but as with any display when used for professional editing, the use of a calibration device such as a Color Spyder is always recommended

* Asus PA278QV (also too big and bit expensive but for now probably I would go with this one and try to come up with something to fit it on my desk)

Given the space, three monitors side by side wasn't an option, so I did the next best thing. This ultrawide monitor in a vertical configuration is perfect for my needs. Image quality is fine for my needs, HDMI in is an option, and I like the fact that it automatically sleeps and wakes on computer boot/shutdown. Limited on space but need a lot of screen? Try this out for size!

Mine also has a physical defect and I was planning on returning it. Customer service was horrible to deal with.

At this point I was just LIVID!! I'm saying to myself "how in the world, can such a large electronics company like LG, that makes tons of monitors and televisions, not have an easy way for me to get my monitor to work as advertised?!?! Am I the first Mac user to ever buy one of their monitors?!?!?" Mindblowing I ended up spending the next 30 mins on Google doing a ton of various searches, trying to find a solution. I ended up getting lucky and stumbled on to a video on YouTube that showed me what needed to be done. I ended up needing to purchase some 3rd party software for $16. After going through the steps in the video a few times, I was finally able to fix the resolution to the recommended settings and get it to look the way it was supposed to

FYI: Although @DellCares was super-fast in asking for information, they never did respond at all once I'd provided it. If customer service is important to you, you may want to look at a different manufacturer for your next display.

So for you gamers out there, I am going to go ahead and put it in the description box. I'm going to link the higher version if you will the model of t...

Viewing angle is very important to prevent fatigue. He has been using it for a month or so now and he absolutely loves it. He says he can set it up as two separate screen when using his laptop. I actually didn't think the Mac laptops did that

4) Gaming with extra field-of-view on the left/right sides really gives you an edge (as long as your game supports 2560x1080 resolution which games like Doom, The Division, Zombie Army Trilogy and even Fallout 4---with an INI file tweak---do). Once you game with ultra-wide resolutions, trust me..

Great display and nice design. My 13” laptop fits under it without covering the display. No need for a stand.

You will end up with black bars on either side and Blizzard has no plans to support it. Having said that, the monitor itself for the games that do support it are so much more immersive and well worth buying this monitor. The Stand: A HUGE improvement over the previous model (34UM57-P), which had a cheap, lightweight plastic stand that was not adjustable for the most part. This one has a metal core and is fully adjustable and does not allow the panel to rock back and forth like the last one
