Being able to watch a video and take notes on the same monitor is just so nice for studying. Or if I am following instructions in a browser window I don't need to copy something, move a window and then paste it everything is just right there for me. Might not be multitasking but space makes the one task a lot more comfortable for sure.
They don't really make you more productive, but the screen real estate is insanely convenient for software engineers for example. On my Samsung neo g9, I can open 6 terminals side by side and which gives me a lot more flexibility when looking through a project.
@@NickKendall it does make me more productive if it allows me to have combinations of two applications opened and visible enough to be comfortable to work on each without constantly maximizing and minimizing. Combos of 2 between email, browser, excell, photoshop, illustrator, code editor, image viewer, etc... also even opening notepad and leave it visible for a while can save me time. That's productivity to me :) Note: I use a pen tablet monitor for Photoshop (or drawing apps), and having the possibility of combos of 2 other apps on the other monitor really helps, if not to save time, at least for the convenience.
This is a great video, and applies well for people who work with excel/PDFs on a daily basis. They're tremendously helpful for quick comparisons between two excel workbooks, not quite multitasking but very helpful. For gaming, ultrawide shines best with 3rd person games like RDR2, Uncharted 4, and racing/other 3rd person shooters.
Thanks! Yeah I could definitely imagine how helpful it would be with spreadsheets. Yes! I've also been playing a bit of Subnautica recently and it's so good with the ultrawide!
Downside is that most videos, tv shows and anime are set to 16:9 and since that's my main consumption + games I think sticking to a 16:9 is best for me. 32 inch monitor is my choice
@@Kai99342 16:9 is native for 32in monitors. a 34in will force large black borders on both sides of the display which can make it a waste of screen real estate which means a waste of money.
i have a 27inch 180hz 1440p LG monitor with another 27inch directly above that one, and a vertical monitor on the left of those two (All 1440p) and that is my main rig for when i’m playing with friends or shooters that don’t quite work great on an UW. then on the desk to the right of that setup, is my AW3423dwf with a 27inch 1440p monitor above that and that’s for my solo games or games that work well with my ultrawide so i can still watch youtube. Love my setup
Excellent presentation of the pros and cons. Also, a very balanced evaluation of these pros and cons. Overall, linguistically very good to understand. Thank you for this great work!
i have a 34" uw, and a 27". The 27 is wall mounted on an arm above my 34", that's the best for me at least. I can still watch youtube or netflix while gaming and dont have to use up any space on the 34".
@@ricocontreras5235 Yeah i just uploaded a Picture on my Channel, you can check it out. Because of the perspective the Display on top looks bigger then it is, the Ultrawide is the same hight as the 27" above.
*I had an ultra wide monitor, but I ended up selling it. After gaming on it for a few weeks, my eyes evolved to handle the turning my head left, then right, then left, etc. My eyes looked like Steve Bushimi's. So, I am done. I went back to normal gaming. (16:9 ratio).*
I just set up my 1st widescreen monitor yesterday. It's just a budget 34" Sceptre but the picture is really nice. Bought it mainly to watch widescreen movies on.
I've been using ultrawide monitors for a decade, and I recently switched one out for a 28" 3:2 monitor from BenQ, and honestly, my productivity has shot up. It's so much more comfortable. I find that 16:9 is just awkward for everything, 16:10 not much better.... so 2.4:1 was surely great with all of that horizontal space... in theory. But, I don't think it is. After using these large ultrawides for so long long, I think that most work and workflows tend to be vertical rather than horizontal. Having a physical demarcation between apps which run at full screen is somehow cognitively more natural. With the new monitor being 3:2 aspect ratio, it seems larger in person than the 34" ultrawides I also use. (I got the BenQ RD280U)
Does any of you have issue with the resolution. Everything is too small with that resolution, the icons, application text...etc. I don't want to use scaling though.
On a single laptop display it's incredibly cramped trying to get anything done is a real chore having to constantly switch windows and desktops.. so yeah that last con point is kinda off imho.
Once you go ultra wide you can't go back. I can't anyway. Curved screen takes some time getting used to, straight lines aren' t 'straight', but that's no issue for me, could be depending on what you're doing. If it takes too much space, get a 3rd party stand that clamps at the back of your desk. There are loads around. So great, I'm getting another one for my backup pc.
This is an interesting video! However, I think there might be a different perspective on how ultrawide monitors support productivity. Having multiple windows open isn’t always about multitasking or switching between tasks. Often, a single task-like writing a report-requires access to several resources simultaneously, such as a document editor, a spreadsheet, and research materials. In these cases, it’s more about streamlining a focused workflow than multitasking. Ultrawide monitors can be especially helpful for workflows like this, where having everything visible at once enhances efficiency.
You said you don't think is more productive but for me its gonna save a lot of time, i can code and run the hardware simulation at the same time on multiple tabs without minimizing each tab thats a good thing. it save a lot of time for software developers because the screen space is really a matter like referring multiple pages on different books at the same time without closing and reopening it
One problem some people point out about ultrawide high res monitors like the beautiful LG 40WP95C-W is that at native resolution everything looks too small... and if you scale the scaling on MacOS sucks...would you confirm that or not?
I've had no issues with scaling at all on this monitor :) I have it scaled down to more space (the smallest it can go) and it looks great! Hope that helps!
@@NickKendall thanks for the info... so at 1600 vertical res things still look reasonably usable and not too tiny... I wonder if that if still the case for the 40WP95C-W that has 5120 x 2160 res... I am really torn between these two monitors... the LG 38WN95C has great refresh rate and does not need scaling.. the 40WP95C-W would allow to see 4k content at native res, but has only 75Hz refresh rate and I do fear that it will force me to scale things up to be able to read file names etc...] Any final thoughts or advice on this?
Need ur inputs. In considering 29 inch 2560x1080 ultrawide owing to space nd budget constraints. Will text be pixelated? Want to use splut screen for meeting and reading report/ppt at same time. Or will opting for 27inch 2k be more prudent option to go for?
Hmm good question; if you have any computer stores near you I'd recommend going into a store to see if you can test out the difference on similar resolution displays. Since I haven't used a 2560x1080 ultrawide myself I can't really say unfortunately.
No problem! Depends on what you’re using it for I think! If I had money to burn I’d probably get a 49in but I don’t think it’s necessary. I’m really happy with the 38in when I factor in the price. I didn’t want to spend more than $1,500 and the big 49in monitors start at like $2k
I know that this vod is more than 1yr old but still im musthave for ultrawides is aftermarket stand, i use for 34 g5 pole type stand and screen, for g9 wich is much heavier i personaly use hydraulic one. Tbh i have same feelings like you about uw, but for positives we can put p2w in many games cuz we see for 34 more, for 32:9 much more. 16:9 users must move camera to see things that we see by just move of eyes.
Oh nice! 😁 LG is kinda known for good displays, Dell makes really nice ultrawides as as well. They ending up being the two brands I looked at the most. But depends what you want!
Thanks for the content. Can you write your keyboard's model please? I'm using my laptop's keyboard and couldn't find a good keyboard similiar to lpatop's one. Your keyboard looks good.
I just have a normal monitor at work, and I am here because I am soooo tired of switching between programs. And even if I want to work on two word files in parallel, normal screen has not enough space
My first ultrawide from 2020 was amazing.... So amazing that my 15-year-old never gave it back. It lives with the gaming pc now. Which brings me to the second one... it's not curved. I wasn't sure which I'd prefer, but now that I've daily driven both, I think I prefer the strait ultrawide for all my photography edits. I've noticed the curved monitor skews a tad and, therefore, is a bold face liar! 😅
@@NickKendall I am asking for graphic design and editing videos, some of my friends they said for graphic design isn't good because at the curved part you can't see sometimes things clearly like you can fail on design.
go flat. curved monitors are specifically only there for gamin, other than that it sucks in everything else for general pc use. Flat is way better at all things.
I spoke out of turn with my comment above. I purchased the Dell 34" Ultrawide Web monitor and I love it. The resolution is also very good and easy to read. What I really like about this monitor is that it has a built-in KVM which allows me to connect my work and personal PC's to it. I reduced a lot of cables by not having to use a free standing KVM.
Bought a ViewSonic VA34MHDJ few days back. Its a great IPS ultrawide monitor with like 420nits of brightness which major ultrawide at this price point doesn't have. But this monitor lacks in the IO department and has only 75hz. Still couldn't get my hands on high refresh rate monitor. IPS/OLED+ Ultrawide+ high refresh rate = a kidney 😞.
great video Nick. was in the market to buy one now that i'm doing video editing and need to see more of my timeline .. Can you close the laptop and view on scree or laptop has to open?? thank you in advance!
@@NickKendall all my life. The boards were basically the first thing I noticed in the video. I was also trying to figure out if your long boards were motorized since you had so many completes that looked the same.
@@supernewuser nice! Yeah I have 3 electric boards, and then 2 regular boards which I don't ride that often if I'm honest. I've got a few other videos talking about my electric boards.
hi man sorry for taking your time but i had couple of questions about ultra wides since i was considering buying one. 1- does a 3440*1440 monitor supports 2560*1440p and 2560*1080 without issues (since i may wanna play games that may be demanding) 2- which one would you buy a 32 inch 2560*1440p or a 34 inch 3440*1440 for basically the same price for gaming purposes 3- if i decide to play on 2560*1080 (Ultra wide FHD instead of Ultra wide 1440p) would it be noticeably blurry or ugly ?
Thanks for the video! I interested in buying a similar LG screen, maybe the 40” inches. Do you recommend to have a laptop connected to it or Mac mini is sufficient? I’m a little worried, another screen be too much screen for my eyes.
No problem! It’s really personal preference; I like having my laptop open because I like the extra screen. But the monitor will still work even if you have the laptop closed! So if you just want to use the monitor, you can 😊
What desk mat are you using!? I looks so nice and "minimalist" especially when compared to my corsair mat, despite looking nice. I feel like the one seen in this video would match the rest of my room that I'm currently re-themeing (is that a word?)
I am ordering an LG ultra wide. I don’t have a MacBook Pro I use windows. But one thing I’m stuck with is how can I drag screens from my laptop to my ultra wide. Is there an app? I’m having a hard time finding a video because I don’t know what it’s called 🤦🏻♂️
I want to replace my MacBook/24” dual screen with an ultra wide, but it’s funny because every single review I have watched, the reviewer still uses his MacBook on the side
Looking to get my self a curved ultrawide 34 inch monitor or dual 27 inch monitors. What would you recommend? I’ve been having a hard time deciding. This is mainly for work (Google chrome tabs, pdfs and web surfacing, multitasking) and would be supported by a Mac air M1. I don’t really game on monitors and not really looking to game on it.
Hmm good question; I personally love having no bezels in the middle but dual 27in would be a lot of screen which would be nice. Have you tried going to a local tech store and having a look in person to get a feel for it?
Just bought a 34 inch ultrawide, been on a 21 inch gaming monitor or worse for decades. Gonna be a big jump. I was wanting the 49 inch ultrawide odyssey g9 but i'll settle for the 34 inch gigabyte g34wqc for now.
These are kinda annoying. You have to download a software to even be able to use the split screen in the first place so if your company is strict on what you can download it’s basically pointless
No worries Charles! I've heard from other people who use excel on regular basis that it's really helpful. So could be worth it if you work with them a lot! :)
Dude why did you not talk about Picture in Picture mode and picture by picture side you don’t need two monitors ya call your self a monitor reviewer I like my because I can use my ps5 and pc at the same time

The 4K or 16:9 ratio monitor has a taller screen by about 3 inches which makes it much better for watching movies or playing video games.

hi man sorry for taking your time but i had couple of questions about ultra wides since i was considering buying one. 1- does a 3440*1440 monitor supports 2560*1440p and 2560*1080 without issues (since i may wanna play games that may be demanding) 2- which one would you buy a 32 inch 2560*1440p or a 34 inch 3440*1440 for basically the same price for gaming purposes 3- if i decide to play on 2560*1080 (Ultra wide FHD instead of Ultra wide 1440p) would it be noticeably blurry or ugly ?
Thanks for the video! I interested in buying a similar LG screen, maybe the 40” inches. Do you recommend to have a laptop connected to it or Mac mini is sufficient? I’m a little worried, another screen be too much screen for my eyes.
No problem! It’s really personal preference; I like having my laptop open because I like the extra screen. But the monitor will still work even if you have the laptop closed! So if you just want to use the monitor, you can 😊
the worst thing is not being able to go back
Yep. Truth.
What desk mat are you using!? I looks so nice and "minimalist" especially when compared to my corsair mat, despite looking nice. I feel like the one seen in this video would match the rest of my room that I'm currently re-themeing (is that a word?)
This particular one I got on Amazon for about $20! I can definitely recommend it! :) Just have a look on Amazon
@@NickKendall thank you!
I am ordering an LG ultra wide. I don’t have a MacBook Pro I use windows. But one thing I’m stuck with is how can I drag screens from my laptop to my ultra wide. Is there an app? I’m having a hard time finding a video because I don’t know what it’s called 🤦🏻♂️
Do you mean just moving your apps to the ultra-wide? Just drag them across the screen, no apps required :)
I want to replace my MacBook/24” dual screen with an ultra wide, but it’s funny because every single review I have watched, the reviewer still uses his MacBook on the side
Looking to get my self a curved ultrawide 34 inch monitor or dual 27 inch monitors. What would you recommend?
I’ve been having a hard time deciding.
This is mainly for work (Google chrome tabs, pdfs and web surfacing, multitasking) and would be supported by a Mac air M1. I don’t really game on monitors and not really looking to game on it.
Hmm good question; I personally love having no bezels in the middle but dual 27in would be a lot of screen which would be nice. Have you tried going to a local tech store and having a look in person to get a feel for it?
32 inch 240 hz QHD vs 34 inch 165 hz WQHD Which one you choose ?
34 inch 165 hz i play ps5 so im tapped out at 120 but i reach 1440p
Just bought a 34 inch ultrawide, been on a 21 inch gaming monitor or worse for decades. Gonna be a big jump. I was wanting the 49 inch ultrawide odyssey g9 but i'll settle for the 34 inch gigabyte g34wqc for now.
hows it working for you?
anything over 40 inches ur better off buying a 50k inch tv.
@@slumy8195 facts, 55 is tha sweet spot, scored a $300 tv for it
LG G8 21:9 - perfect monitor... until we get 21:9 5120x2160 240 hz, which will be even more perfect
That would be incredible!! 😍
@@NickKendallSir i have lots of doubts Is there a way I can contact you
Nice video
Thanks! :)
Video editing, graphic editing is considered productivity. So it is or it is not. One thing for pros n same for cons . 😮
These are kinda annoying. You have to download a software to even be able to use the split screen in the first place so if your company is strict on what you can download it’s basically pointless
Windows has screen snapping built-in
U got it u can n ve to focus only on one or it’s like too many cooks spoil the broth
Hello, Congratulations Cool 👍👏👏👏
Thank you 👍
Great video mate thanks! I’d only use the monitor for excel type work, is UW worth it for the novelty?
No worries Charles! I've heard from other people who use excel on regular basis that it's really helpful. So could be worth it if you work with them a lot! :)
@@NickKendall Thanks mate I think that's made up my mind! Hope your channel keeps doing well, great content
Last point is not valid for Software Engineer.
Dude why did you not talk about Picture in Picture mode and picture by picture side you don’t need two monitors ya call your self a monitor reviewer I like my because I can use my ps5 and pc at the same time
Saying a con that’s too big is like an dumb buying a Ferrari and saying that a con is it can go too fast. Bro you choose it wtf
I think you can just buy ultrabig 16:9 monitor and be alright. By the way I watch this video on ultrawide smartphone screen (Xperia 5)
Pixel density
1.22 Thats what she said !
Is that, like, a 'crushed' shirt?
😅 Yep, looks like I forgot to iron it...
