After an unfortunate incident with my previous monitor (LG 34" curved ultrawide 75Hz USB-C IPS) I was looking for a new monitor with similar specifications, preferably for the same price or cheaper. Mainly used for home work, occasionally for gaming Ultimately ordered and tested this monitor and a more expensive LG Ultrafine 32" 4K IPS. Image quality itself from the LG was slightly better, largely due to the 4K resolution, but the available space due to the Ultrawide format of this monitor is much more convenient for me while working, the 120Hz refresh rate gives a noticeably smoother result than the classic 60Hz . I ultimately hung the monitor on the wall behind my desk to reduce the space between wall and monitor from +/- 18cm (with supplied monitor stand) to +/- 6cm (with wall mount, also purchased from Coolblue). All USB accessories (mouse, keyboard, headset, etc.) are connected to the screen, both fixed PC (via DisplayPort and USB-B connection) and laptop (USB-C) use it. Laptop even charges via the screen. After working on a Curved Monitor for several years, it takes some time to get used to a flat screen, especially of those dimensions, but you get used to it very quickly. Happy with the purchase!

I chose this screen to work at home and still have a large screen so that I can have two windows next to each other like at work (it is best to enable 'snapping' in Windows Settings, it was off by default for me, and you have very quickly two 'maximized' windows next to each other as if you had two separate screens.
With the included USB-C cable (which is fairly short, but therefore handy) you can connect your laptop to the screen in a reasonably minimalist setup, which ensures image transfer and the screen also charges your laptop battery! My wireless keyboard and its USB receiver are now also in this screen, so everything is very clean on my desktop!
I looked online to see if the hanger on the left of the screen was collapsible: and yes! I don't use headphones/headset at home, so that bar is just collapsed into the screen to keep it minimalistic and I can't accidentally bump into it either :-)

I like it because I wanted to go bigger and with a high resolution.

Our digital expert will help you, but it can sometimes make mistakes, like humans do.
According to our monitor expert
Sharp images for details: you can work with sharp images thanks to the Quad HD resolution.
Work side by side: use multiple windows at the same time on the wide ultrawide screen.
Bright colors from every angle: the IPS panel also shows bright colors when you look at it from an angle.
Not for small desks: an ultrawide monitor takes up a lot of space, so your desk has to be large enough.
No built-in webcam: you'll need a separate webcam if you want to make video calls.
