Specifications

SpecificationValue
Panel33.9-inch (86.2 cm) OLED; 21:9; 800R curve

800R means the screen follows the arc of an 800 mm radius circle, bringing the edges of the wide screen closer to your eyes.

Resolution3440 × 1440 (UWQHD); 0.231 mm pixel pitch
Refresh and response240 Hz; 0.03 ms (GtG)
Brightness275 cd/m² typical (250 minimum); 1,300 nits peak
Contrast and colour1,500,000:1 typical; 98.5% DCI-P3 (CIE 1976); 10-bit (1.07 billion colours)
HDRHDR10; VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400
Variable refreshVESA AdaptiveSync; NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible; AMD FreeSync Premium Pro

Variable refresh matches the screen to the graphics card’s frame rate, reducing tearing and stutter.

SurfaceAnti-glare, low-reflection coating
Inputs2 × HDMI 2.1; 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (DSC)

DSC compresses the image in a visually lossless way to carry high resolution and refresh rates over one cable. Inputs are detected automatically.

USB and audioUSB 3.0: 1 upstream, 2 downstream; 4-pole headphone output

The 4-pole jack accepts a headset with a microphone directly on the monitor.

Display featuresPBP/PIP (2 sources); Black Stabilizer; Crosshair; FPS counter; Reader Mode; factory calibration; hardware calibration ready; VESA ClearMR

PBP splits the screen to show two sources side by side, while PIP shows the second source in a small window. Black Stabilizer brightens detail in dark scenes.

From the manufacturer

LG presents the 34GS95QE-B as an immersive 800R gaming monitor with a 240 Hz OLED panel. LG UK

Strengths and limitations

  • Hardware-Journal measured 283 cd/m² full-white SDR and 763 cd/m² on a 10% HDR window with an X-Rite i1 Display Pro; the 1,300 cd/m² figure the maker gives for a 1% window was not measured. The test finds SDR brightness below IPS panels and large OLED TVs but clearly better than the 2023 OLED generation. Viewing angles showed no shifts. The matte surface filters reflections well; 110 ppi is a compromise at this size, and 3440 × 1440 is not suited to console use.

Owner experiences and issues

  • The visible Best Buy reviews praise the blacks, colours, 240 Hz and curve; Ilow21 and an unnamed buyer say the matte surface cuts reflections. Alex and Rmeyers413 find text slightly blurry or pixelated, which weakens productivity use. RyanH experienced flicker and suggests turning off G-Sync, CharlesC notes it is not 4K, and Alex misses a USB-C input. Several buyers mention a two-year warranty that covers burn-in; warranty length may vary by country and seller.
