[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a month ago for productivity and I am glad I chose the LG 49WL95C-W. It is simply fantastic and functioning as I anticipated. I am pairing it with my MacBook Pro with macOS Big Sur.
Pros: Style/Design, Features/Settings, Performance, Quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this monitor 6 months ago and have been using it for work-from-home functions. I love how sleek it is and the size is perfect. My only difficulty is how I can split the monitor up into 3 components and this has been difficult to figure out.
Pros: Quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this about a month ago. It is much more than what I expected! I love the design as it has a very sturdy stand to hold it. It was very easy to connect and it has an excellent picture. I thought about purchasing another 25-27" monitor to go with the other one I already owned, but then I saw this one. I needed something to be able to work from home and I needed a larger sized monitor. I saw this one and it had speakers. This was the only one out there that had speakers with it that I located and I did research for about 3 weeks. The speakers have good sound. This was definitely worth the investment and is functioning better than I expected!! If you are looking for a ultra wide monitor, use some of that stimulus money and purchase this. I highly recommend this monitor!!
Pros: Style/Design, ease of use, Performance, Quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great work productivity tool, 5120x1440 on Display Port only. HDMI is 3840x1080. Refresh rate is 60Hz so if you want to game on this, might not be what you're looking for.
Pros: ease of use, Performance, Quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great monitor. Wonderful to be able to see multiple open programs on one screen. Color is true and the controls are well thought out except for volume control which I feel needs to be more easily accessible in this day of virtual meetings . Like a slider button in the front under the bezel.
Pros: Quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Recommended by Ali Abdaal.
I set it up to have a single cable to MacBook Pro with USB-C thunderbolt. What others did not mention as a huge strength is that this cable also charges the MacBook -- so no additional cables needed. The screen has built-in sound which is sufficient for background sound, podcasts etc. The monitor also has charging USB ports. I had purchased a hub to connect this to MacBook but do not need it.
I also use ThinkPad for work with Windows and have effectively wired the home set-up to have both ThinkPad and MacBook connected so I can switch from one to the other with a click. This saves a lot of time and saves having to have two home 'hot-desks' which is what I was previously doing.
The monitors quality is excellent and is as good as 2 27inch montors side by side. I arrange it into thirds which works better for me, and could easily setup as quarters without text becoming too small. For example, Outlook on the left, Endnote on the right, Adobe Pro in the middle with Word document...helps me draft manuscripts efficiently.
I am now buying a second for my work office!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to supplement my Mac laptop display as I anticipate giving up my 27” iMac. I like all of the screen real estate. It’s working well for me. It’s not as crisp as my iMac‘s display, but I guess that’s to be expected. I had to disable the brightness auto-adjust — it kept going up and down for seemingly no reason. I would prefer more USB-C ports — it only comes with one. But they did include a USB 2 to C adapter.
I would recommend this to a friend!
