The perfect OLED monitor - and it matches my white setup!
I love this monitor. The 34” curved screen is the perfect size — big enough to feel immersive, but still practical for daily use. The 1440p ultrawide resolution is ideal: sharp, detailed, and great for both gaming and multitasking. Having the extra width makes such a difference whether I’m racing, working, or just watching films.The OLED panel is incredible. True blacks, vibrant colours, and contrast that makes everything look alive. Night racing especially looks unreal — you can see details in the dark that you’d never notice on another screen. The clarity and smoothness together really set it apart.Gameplay is ridiculously smooth, and both G-Sync and FreeSync work flawlessly. It makes everything from competitive shooters to sim racing feel instant and fluid.The fact that the monitor is white is a big deal for me — it matches my setup perfectly, and even the cables are white, which makes the whole thing look so much more polished.Every little detail feels considered, and it makes a difference when you care about your setup. For me, this is the perfect monitor — stunning to look at, amazing to use, and clearly designed with attention to detail.

Best monitor I’ve used
The 480 hz 1440p oled is really good for its price, there is so many points I want to make though.In gaming it’s 480hz obviously but I think it’s better than 540hz TN or IPS panels because the oled panel makes it more natural and there is WAYY less ghosting than the other panels I’ve come across.The other point I wanted to make is that you need a really powerful gpu to run it without stuttering which is ideally something equivalent to an RTX 5080 which I use with a ryzen 7 9800x3d and also 32gb ddr5 ram.I don’t know if this is with all oled panels but sometimes I do get flickering and I did my research and found out that it is VRR (variable refresh rate) which causes the flickering. Now my monitor doesn’t do that I’m guessing this because I turned off hardware acceleration and instantly it stopped flickering. Also the way this monitor works is really good in games like valorant or Fortnite and even Black ops 6 because i play 2560x1440 on low-medium settings with DLSS on gets me about 500-570fps. The monitors stand I’m a really big fan of because it does not take too much space which is a good thing about this monitor. As a £750 monitor (I bought it for £650) it is still really reasonable for its price and because I’m a very competitive gamer this is truly the best monitor I have ever played on. I moved from 360hz TN panel to this.This monitor is also good for content creators or people that edit pictures or videos which really gives you the colour accuracy since oled is the most natural panel and it’s best known for colour accuracy at the end of the day.One thing I wouldn’t advise is if you want this monitor for office work or just typing emails and stuff then I would recommend a different monitor since this monitor is mostly for gamers and people that have things to do with content creation or just creation in general. This monitor also has oled image cleaning which basically prevents your panel from getting burn in. Also please if you have read this long review put a fully black wallpaper in windows and also auto hide your taskbar to prevent burn-in. Thanks so much for reading this and if you buy this monitor, enjoy it to the fullest

Good Monitor, Be cautious of the seller
The monitor is very good. I purchased for £889 and it is exactly what you would expect for this price point with the size, refresh rate, response time, and pixel density. it has great options for preventing burn in and other options. I am rating one star to beware if the seller is "electronic empire". They do not abide by UK Consumer laws and will threaten fees for any returns. You should consider buying through an alternate seller

Beautiful W-OLED monitor
Gaming performance is fantastic as motion clarity is perfect when playing games like valorant, as I upgraded from a 1440p 144hz VA panel the difference is huge. The deep black contrast is also wonderful as expected from an OLED but the main difference I saw was the smoothness from the 240hz panel and again the motion clarity!The OLED protection features are quite generous and I keep all of them on just in case (such as screen shift) and its barely noticeable.Build quality of the monitor is also very good, as unless seen from a very tight angle the monitor looks like a very thin panel with equal bezels (I have installed it onto a VESA wall arm) so its an elegant showpiece on top of being performant.I have yet to test this long term for any burn in or another quirk of the monitor but as a whole it has been fantastic.

High performance OLED
I was looking for a 34" 240Hz with OLED to upgrade my old Dell ultrawide and this is one came up in my searches. I was worried about the 800R curve being too aggressive coming from a 1800R but actually difference is not that noticeable, in fact I love the more immersive curve of the LG and I no longer turn my head to see the far edges of screen like I used to, it sort of wraps around my field of vision in a more natural way. The OLED is really nice, the blacks are great, colours are deeper, images have better 3D perspective, it's a huge step up from a regular led screen. I think the monitor likes to be driven hard as on low FPS it flickers a bit, but as soon as I play any content the screen becomes super stable, this might be linked to the onboard "oled-scree-move function" in the control panel which together with screen saver and auto image cleaning should prevent burn-in! Talking about FPS, this is definitely a monitor to match a high power PC, old Dell at 144hz was bottle-necking my new RTX 5080 setup while the LG feels perfectly at home with it. The white model was discounted down 48% so it didn't take me long to click the purchase button and I think a 21:9 monitor, Oled, 240HZ at this price is a phenomenal deal. Recommended to all serious gamers!
