LG flaunts curved 21:9 monitor, plus a display for gamers

From CNET: LG is flaunting its curves with a new, eye-popping 21:9 Curved UltraWide Monitor.

The company announced details about the monitor on Monday and noted that it will be shown off at the IFA trade show in Berlin in early September. The curved screen will be joined by two other monitors: a 4K display for professional use and a rapidly refreshing display for gamers.

The 34-inch 34UC97 curved monitor has a cinematic 21:9 aspect ratio and in-plane switching. It boasts a massive resolution of 3,440x1,440 pixels. The display packs two Thunderbolt 2 connections for connecting to Macs and for daisy-chaining other monitors.

Like the curved televisions that have been all the rage this year, the curved monitor is designed to draw you into what's on the screen by wrapping around your peripheral vision. It has a 7W speaker system to immerse your ears as well.

Meanwhile, the 31-inch LG 31MU97 Digital Cinema 4K Monitor is designed for professional creative types and video editors, who can view and edit ultra-high-definition video on the eye-scorching 4,096x2,160-pixel display.
