Cant wait to hear about the prices. Im definitely considering upgrading to a curved monitor at this size instead of 2 24"ers. Anyone know the dimensions of the screen for a 34" 21:9 screen?

That would be a nice high school math trigonometry question: given a diagonal length of 34" and a slope of 3/7, calculate the width and height of the rectangle.

 

[TechyInAZ]

Nice.

Your gona need a 4k ready system to game with three of those.

 

[DarkSable]

That's... actually pretty sexy. Now I want the amalgam of this monitor and the Asus SWIFT. That would be extraordinary.

 

[SirKnobsworth]

I'm guessing this is using the same panel as LG's similarly spec'ed model? If that's anything to go by, it won't be cheap.

Someone want to check my math on this? I get H~13.375" and W~31.25"

For comparison, a 16:10 monitor that is 24" is about H=12.7" and W=20.3"

It's a bit weird, but I can't handle looking at curved screens. I've tried a few and some affect me more than others, but feel kind of disorientated looking at them. Anyone else have that effect or just me, haha.

Ugh make it 21:10 with a 3440 x 1600 would be so much better. But meh to this anyway as I'm going 4K soon with the Asus 32 inch display.

x=2.21455938697318 so hxw=46.5"x19.9". Seems like it should be taller.

Forget my current 2-monitor setup, if I were to get this I would just need the one! I would need a pretty good excuse to buy this though, seeing as I just replaced my main monitor last year...

The math is off, that works out to be a 50" monitor: sqrt(46.5^2+19.9^2).

Actually, if the stated specs are true this monitor may actually be cheaper than the LG curved monitor the 34UC95 and more in line with the 34UM95 which is not curved. Perhaps even less than that.

The LG is a bit of a different beast though because it has allot more ports on the back including 2x thunderbolt 2 ports and also has a built in KVM switch. If you use multiple systems like a MBP and a PC workstation then the LG is the way to go.

I am not real sure about how this curved screen stuff is going to work though. Might be more immersive for gaming and the expense of being a great productivity monitor.

I actually had something like that as a question in an exam years ago.

 

[lain Iwakura]

the price will be 34" too

 

[gadgety]

The bezels don't look extra thin.

 

[Vorador2]

I have to say, that Delta-E is pure love <3. Please don't hit me.

Dumb things aside. I can see this being pretty useful to people that need horizontal real state. If it supports split screen it would be even better.

 

[Poul Wrist]

Noooooooooooooo curved

 

[icemunk]

Make it a reasonable price, and we'll talk. I have a feeling it will be quite expensive though... my guess... $3000+

 

[SessouXFX]

It's about freaking time...!

Sad about the 8ms, was hoping for more like 5ms at this size. But I'm shocked they went with a curved design (which might have something to do with the 8ms). But you know what? It looks fantastic!

Can't wait to see the reviews.

You probably rounded too much on H somewhere: I get 13.393".

I wish there were more x:10 displays too... but those days appear to be gone for good.

What? Triple 1080p monitors setup is equivalent to 3K so to speak (6220800 pixels), 3 of these beasts will have 2.3x (14860800) pixels.
