Product Information

However, this is not a proper 5K resolution monitor at 5120 X 2160. It has the same vertical screen real estate as a 4K monitor, but the horizontal pixels match a 5K monitor. LG is seriously testing my patience does anybody remember what was the time between their announcement and actual launch of LG's first 5K2K monitor (LG 34WK95U) at the time? Combining a higher refresh rate and VRR delivers the best gaming performance, and there is only one 5K monitor that does it best; Samsung Odyssey G9. This monitor features a 240Hz refresh rate and FreeSync Premium Pro, providing the best gaming performance in a super-clear 5K resolution. Connectivity – At least One Type-C Port

And just for completeness, I'm also looking at a 3rd contender on the market: https://news.lenovo.com/pressroom/press-releases/latest-thinkpad-portfolio-ready-to-do-business-anywhere/ the Lenovo Thinkvision P40w-20 which also supports USB 4/TB 4 and has also a built in KVM, but still misses Freesync LG 34BK95U-W has a great selection of ports, including a Thunderbolt 3 port with 85W power delivery, enough to charge most laptops. The Neo is geared for high-end gaming. It comes with a VA panel and delivers a contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1. Further, the brightness levels measure 2000nits, and it supports VESA Quantum HDR 2000.

Simulated image. Actual features, functionality, and other product specifications may differ and are subject to change without notice. Samsung Odyssey G9 has the best design of all the 5K resolution monitors. The sleek white finish and RGB lighting are everything a gamer wants. The monitor also features an aggressive 1000R curved that provides more gaming immersion than 1800R monitors. Gaming on this monitor is not great at 70Hz, but a lot better than 60Hz monitors. The monitor features adaptive sync to eliminate choppy frames and tearing on competitive FPS games, delivering a smooth gaming experience. However, don’t buy this monitor solely for gaming. Connectivity

The MSI Prestige PS341WU is a versatile 5K monitor for all creators. Whether web development, video, graphics, or 3D interiors, the Prestige PS341WU has something to offer to everyone. The design features a monitor with a white body and stand. The rear panel bears the MSI logo along with some vague attempts at improving the aesthetics. Overall, it offers little if you are seeking great aesthetics.

Increase Viewing Comfort while Maintaining Color Quality

The best 5K monitor should provide multiple to adjust the viewing position of the monitor. This is important, especially when buying a monitor for work, as it can help reduce fatigue and strain in the workplace. You want a monitor that is easily adjustable for a comfortable viewing experience. IPS technology also has 178° wide viewing angles, so the image won’t shift in color, brightness, or contrast regardless of the angle you’re looking at the screen. Monitors come with different panel types. The most popular ones are IPS and VA. TN panels also exist but are more common in gaming monitors. I'm actually looking at the same monitors as you are, while the kvm switch of the Dell would actually better suit to my use case, I do tend to lean more towards the LG because of their implementation of USB 4 and Freesync (both are missing from the Dell) As you I'm also wondering when they will actually release it to the public.

Now, some people prefer that extra color vibrancy, while others are for more accurate sRGB colors when viewing sRGB content. The good news is that the LG 40WP95C monitor has an sRGB emulation mode with adjustable brightness that can restrict its native gamut down to ~100% sRGB for better accuracy! The PS341WU does not come with a webcam. Also, there are no in-built speakers. However, you do get adequate audio ports to connect external speaker. Picture Quality Dell U4021QW comes with a Thunderbolt 3 port with 90W power delivery that makes it easy to connect your work laptop. You just need a single cable if your ultrabook has a Thunderbolt 3 port. With 90W, the monitor can provide charge even for the 16-inch MacBook Pro. A smaller monitor is better at the exact resolution as it produces the sharpest picture quality, making it ideal for content creation. The PPI of a monitor determines the picture’s sharpness and clarity. For instance, 5K resolution on a 27-inch monitor has a higher PPI, which means sharp and crisper images, than a 34-inch ultrawide monitor. The HDMI ports are limited to 30Hz at 5120×2160, so they’re mainly intended for the Dual Controller feature and PbP/PiP. Price & Similar Monitors

The best monitor supports height, tilt, and swivel adjustments. Smaller monitors can also support pivot adjustment to rotate the monitor into portrait mode. But don’t expect this in an ultrawide monitor. More ports are always great. Dell U4021QW can transform a single Thunderbolt 3 port on your thin and light laptop into 11 ports, including four USB Type-A ports. You’ll no longer need adapters. Our Take Philips Brilliance 499P9H does not have Thunderbolt connectivity, but it comes with a USB-C port that supports an external display and up to 65W charging power. You can turn the monitor into a USB hub on compatible Type-C laptops with a single cable.

Further, the 21:9 ultrawide format provides you with extra horizontal screen space that’s especially useful for productivity work and audio/video editing due to the better view of your timelines.To better appreciate HDR picture quality, you need a monitor with around 1000nits brightness, a wide color gamut, and preferably a VA panel. You may still get an HDR monitor with low intelligence, but such monitors don’t deliver the optimal HDR experience. Another option is the LG 38WN75C. It is an affordable 38″ 3840×1600 60Hz IPS display, albeit with a lower pixel density of 110 PPI. Some users have raised concerns about Mac compatibility with this monitor. LG recommends using macOS Mojave 10.14.2 or later and a 40Gbps-rated Thunderbolt 3 cable. Thunderbolt 3 cables that support 20Gbps won’t work on this monitor. Connectivity
