Samsung C34F791 Series

Stellar contrast ratio ; Slick design ; Luxuriantly large display ; Excellent picture quality ; Extremely accurate color after calibration

Video content can be hard to find ; Speakers are sub-par

Ultrawide curved monitors are impressive to behold. They just look great. They’re aesthetically pleasing, they create a luxuriant workspace that supplants typical two-monitor setups, and they’re immersive. Size and scope often compensate for any...

Excellent factory-calibrated colour accuracy.

Relatively expensive.
