■ 34-inch | 21:9 UltraWide Display | 3440x1440 Resolution | 1800R Curved
Compared to standard 16:9 monitors, the 33% wider screen and 3440x1440 high resolution allow for an overwhelming amount of information to be displayed, enabling efficient work. For example, it allows business professionals and content creators who collect, process, and analyze large amounts of information daily to work by displaying two software applications side-by-side or by maximizing spreadsheet software like Excel for enhanced visibility.
Moreover, this model adopts an 1800R curved display. By making the 21:9 wide screen curved, it maintains a comfortable and spacious workspace while minimizing eye focus adjustments on a wide screen, allowing users to immerse themselves in their work.

It is also suitable for photo and video editing tasks. Furthermore, even low-resolution videos from DVDs or Full HD can be displayed with high-definition and realistic images thanks to Super Resolution+ technology.
