  • It's wider better or just a matter of preference?

    • Both, and mostly because most video content is made exclusively for widescreen formats.

      However, for computer usage, standard width is fine. But naturally more screen = more things you can see.

      • 21:9 is almost as wide as your cinematic (anamorphic) ratio and much wider than 16:9 which is basically the standard for online and TV.

        21:9 for me is highly specific for people who are going to use it predominately for movies and games - for anything else I'd much prefer one or two 16:9 monitors.

      Good for laaarge worksheets.

    • Pleasure is highly dependent on width….

  • This is their normal price, right?

  • website says it is a 75Hz display, but without g-sync or freesync this will actually pose more problem than worth?

    • Why would it pose a problem? Your video cards have been waiting for years to stretch their legs a little.

  • The 29" has been hovering around this price for months.

    Just so you all know, have the USA version, same specs and it's resolution is not great for the size of screen.
    Ok for movies, games etc but I got this for stock trading and regret the buy.

  • Guys the 34inch ultra wide is equivalent to 27inch vertical dimension. I got a dual set up 34inch ultra wide & 27inch normal which the vertical height is almost the same 98%.
    Which means the 25inch might only be a regular 22inch vertical height

      29" is similar height and DPI as 24" 16:9
      34" is similar height and DPI as 27" 16:9

    • This is 29", similar height as 24" 16:9 screen.

  • How do they get the plastic to look, just that little bit cheaper?
