LG continues to dominate UltraWide monitors, unleashing the 34UC87C, an IPS-based curved UltraWide height adjustable monitor that is super-awesome.

Review: LG 34UC87 34in curved monitor

O n a desk, this monitor is beautifully imposing. With a 34” diagonal size and 21:9 display ratio, it's like having two monitors glued into a single display – stunning. There aren't as many pixels on this panel (3440x1440) as a 4K UHD panel...

"These 21:9 monitors are beautiful and very easy to fall in love with."

not so awesome monitor UPDATED 6/1/2016

When functional, the monitor is fairly good.

none.

The support is HORRIBLE. About 2 months into owning this monitor I started to get random power flickers and black bars on the sides of the screen. They have an onsite warranty which is indeed cool, IF they could actually repair anything. 1st repair...

Great screen real estate; Horrible IPS glow

If you don't do anything dark (movies, gaming, dark themes to you apps, photography) then it's a good monitor. The glow just ruins it for me.

Awesome screen real estate Vibrant colors You don't even know the curve is there

All four corners have varying yellow glow. I've tried the recommended "fixes" online by massaging the screen gently and such to no avail. It's a shame that there's this much yellow glow. By measuring it, I have glow going toward the center of the...

Wow, you guys are really complaining about that light bleed?

I don't understand all the complaints about light bleed. Seriously, I noticed nothing until I recalled all of these reviews and intentionally looked for it. *Maybe* it's an issue for artists...but I don't think I'd even notice it watching a dark movie....

Huge. Awesome. Seriously awesome. Awesomely awesome.

The menu controller is awkward and difficult to use, not a big deal. The stand doesn't go down as far as I'd like, stays maybe 4 inches above desktop, again not a big deal.

Worthy of a recommend for professional use

If you do a lot of coding, if you do photography work, if you enjoy a cinematic gaming experience, if you want to be more productive.... BUY THIS!

I've used a tremendous amount of monitors in my time and this is seriously topping the list of them all. The subtle curve, the color, the clarity and balance of dpi is perfect for me. Utilizing this and a 43" Sony 4k TV I've got 77" of screen real...

I can't say I really have any... if I had a complaint it would be the menu button of all things. I'm just not a fan of the position of it or the interface. The OSD could use some work as some features seem vaguely blocked for no reason at all. All...

I really glad with this monitor you really should buy, some people said it has a strong white lite at the left and right top corners, my has a very little light on the left corner nothing that bothers me and it just happens when you have a black screen...
