> 3 dayOne of these days, zero star reviews will be available. The LG 34UM60-P monitor looks good on paper, however, does not truly deliver the quality screen/pixel resolution that it advertises. It just makes things bigger. More frustrating, the internal speakers do NOT operate and LG currently is not offering Customer Service. In lieu of writing a poor review first, I thought Id give LG Customer Service the opportunity to troubleshoot/resolve this issue by sending them an email, then calling them, then attempting to use their OnLine LiveChat engine. All 3 methods failed. This monitor is advertised to be equipped with internal speakers and the product manual includes instructions for the internal speakers. The speaker grills are located on the bottom of the screen frame on either side of the monitor stand/mount. Out of the box, the internal speakers do NOT operate. Sound does operate with monitor volume control through the HEADPHONE JACK located at the rear lower center of the monitor. LG Customer Service 800-243-0000 isnt helpful as they are closed at 230PM PDT!!!!! Really? If I do not hear from LG in 24 clock hours, then this product will be returned to Amazon as DEFECTIVE. The online LG LiveChat is too busy to place a Chat request in the queue, however, it will lie to you and say you are in the queue when youre really not. Message from LG LiveChat: All LG Live Chat Agents are busy assisting other customers. You will be placed in the chat queue for the next available Agent. Thank you for your patience. Our Chat hours are 7am-Midnight CST Monday thru Friday. Please Contact Us to email or Live Chat with an LG Support Representative. Or, call Customer Service at 1-800-243-0000. We apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you for choosing LG Live Chat.

> 3 dayThis is my first ultra wide monitor, which replaced my 27 Apple display. I was surprised by the picture quality and build quality, especially since this model was a lot cheaper than the models available with the same specs (ASUS, Dell, Other LGs, etc.). I was thinking about investing $300 more to purchase the Asus MX29UC 4K monitor, but Im glad I did not. My main use for this monitor is for data analysis. My current workflow with this monitor seems a bit smoother, and the transition from a dual monitor setup was surprisingly easy. The LG screen split software is also amazing to use, but its not any different from using dual monitor setups with 4+ windows open. You are mostly limited by windows that snap to the screen, which means that the screen split modes are fixed and adjusting some of the windows to your preferred size is a bit annoying once in a specific screen split mode. Also, it seems that it takes a little bit of work to get the Mac OS to drive 2560 x 1080, or a 21:9 aspect ratio. Once you get through the display settings, the monitor is truly wonderful to use. I currently have my work computer (2013 MacBook Pro) connected to this monitor through mini-display port to Display port. I also have it mounted to a Vivo VESA mount. One thing to note: the monitor description mentioned HDMI, and USB-C ports. However, the monitor that I received had a Display port and HDMI, and no USB-C. You might want to check the images of the back panel for confirmation of existing ports before purchasing.

> 3 dayPurchased four for the ultimate Matrix like setup, but it needs more ports. :/// It really does deserve four stars instead of five stars.
