Philips 346P1CRH - 34 Inch QGHD Curved ultrawide Monitor, 100Hz, 4ms, VA, USB-C Dock, Webcam, Speakers, HDR 400 (3440 x 1440, 500 cd/m², HDMi/DP/USB-C/USB 3.2)

I recently bought an LG CX OLED tv to use as a computer monitor. It was great, huge in fact and really fantastic image. There was just one major problem with it; it gave me eye strain or DES so I had to stop using it. I'm pleased to say i'm not suffering that issue with this monitor after using it for 8-10 hours a day. After swapping out the OLED TV, I figured the next best thing would be to buy an ultrawide and I'm really happy I managed to pick this one up on offer. The price seems to keep bouncing around but I managed to snag it once it was on offer.Really beautiful display. I love the gentle curve. I tried an Asus ROG curved display before but it had really bad backlight bleed when watching movies / when the display was dark. But I have none of those problems on this display. During the day time, I have this hooked up via USB-C to a 2019 macbook pro and with just one single USB-C cable, I can connect my ethernet, the webcam, the display itself and it keeps the MBP at 100% charge as well. At night, I have it hooked up to my gaming PC and it's really great for watching movies, surfing the web, playing games etc.It's really cool to be able to have a browser and my terminal window/other apps side by side and not have to switch between them. My macbook display just shows my outlook now, and all my productivity happens on this monitor.G-SYNC works fine, there's no tearing in games, no flickering, and the 100Hz is nice. I've heard some people complaining about a whining noise from the display but I'm not having this issue. I am however having a slight networking issue in that if I power off the macbook that's connected via USB-C my network dies completely. I haven't figured that out now, but so far I just either sleep the macbook or unplug the ethernet cable. Would love to figure that one out.All that faf about IPS vs TN ? I can't tell you the difference, and i've got 3 monitors, two of which are IPS and this TN monitor. Whatever angle I look at the display, it looks the same to me. Maybe not as bright if I look at it from a really far angle that I'm not ever gonna sit at.The curve is very nice too. I wasn't a big fan of curved displays due to geometric distortion, but it's such a gentle curve it's not at all noticeable to me on this monitor. The webcam is pretty cool too. I like the fact I can pop it out and pop it back in when not using it and the resolution is nice too although I do feel the popping in / out thing might wear out eventually but time will tell I suppose.I like the stand too. I was thinking before I bought it about getting a desk arm for it, but honestly I don't need it. It doesn't take up that much space and I can raise it, lower it, tilt it .. no problem.Overall I'm very impressed. If I could fix the network problem i'd say 10/10 but I haven't marked it down for this, I think i just need to figure out what's causing this first.

After going through two previous monitors in the last 6 months to get some sort of comparability with my new M1 MacMini I have finally (I think) found one, no flicker issues at all, stable and nice looking two, just be warned some mac users may need to download a driver for the usb C side of life

Stunning picture quality, 10 bit, HDR, 100hz. Plus the bonus of a Web cam with Windows hello support, kvm and power delivery over usbc.

Really impressed with quality and build of this monitor. Nice stand that easily moves around. Screen quality is very good! The only downside I have to say is that the screen is very bright and most preset modes are too bright for working in the dark. I had to dim it to the lowest brightness setting manually and save as my preset. And to be honest I would like it to go even a bit more dimmer than that but that is the lowest setting. It is still quite bright on white background websites in the dark but somewhat got used to it.Nice to watch movies and YouTube.I am mainly using this for office and home media. It’s pretty good.I thought initially that this monitor will increase productivity with splitting screen and stuff but it does not work for me that well. Bit annoying having to manually resize the apps to split them on the screen. For myself I hav4 busted that marketing myth.. other than that it’s really nice and if you love big screen you will enjoy it.

I love this monitor so it's a real shame I am going to need to send it back due to a high pitched noise which changes tone depending on what's on the screen. Perhaps it won't bother some people, perhaps not every one of these has the issue but I cannot tolerate it unfortunately.

terrible and still awaiting my return

Perfect for MacBook Pro as one USB C link provides power for the laptop, video link, audio and webcam plus extends to the monitor’s USB ports. Internal KVM switch allows you to move between two computers, if required.Menus are a bit confusing but it’s not like you use them all day long. Good value for money if you buy it when discounted

👍 great with MacBook Pro
