Product Description
34" UltraWide® Nano IPS Display 5K2K WUHD (5120 x 2160) Resolution Thunderbolt™ 3 DCI-P3 98% HDR Support 4-Side Virtually Borderless Design The Verge Awards at CES recognize the pieces of technology that will shape 2018, and beyond. "You want a display that's a little extra". 1/9/2018 See for yourself why experts love this spacious monitor. Multitaskers can now work in a generous 5:9 area while simultaneously viewing a 16:9 4K video on the same screen. The 5K2K 21:9 display of the 34WK95U offers 5120 x 2160 resolution optimized for video editors, programmers and developers, with convenient single-cable Thunderbolt® 3 connectivity. Discover a more lifelike picture with high dynamic range, which provides bolder contrast between the brightest and darkest areas of the screen. This HDR 600 monitor has been rated to deliver impressive peak luminance of 600 nits for undeniably spectacular highlights. More accurate color and a broader contrast ratio combine to deliver truly high-end picture quality. High dynamic range (HDR) makes bright and dark portions of the image even more so, while Nano IPS controls color better, covering 98% of the DCI-P3 color space, the digital film industry standard. Editing on-site footage with full color expression is possible with DCI-P3 Digital Cinema Color Standard. It reproduces digital color content just as you intended with the preview camera on site; allowing for accurate conditions like shadow detail, color, saturation & brightness for precise editing & overall control in post-production. Nanometer-sized particles on the screen's LED absorb excess light wavelengths, realizing richer color expression that accurately reproduces all content, from actual images and videos to CG. LG 34WK95U is UL verified for 'Nano IPS covers DCI-P3 color Gamut which is 35%(Typical) large than sRGB 100% Simplify setup with a single cable for video/audio plus data transfer, as well as simultaneous laptop charging.

Size/price: 34" at less than $1,200
Quality of detail and color: 5K and color is limited by my video card.
Mac Friendly: Probably one of the more important reasons as I was hoping that it would have features that were in line with my previous high-end Apple Displays (some but not all).
I have it connected to a 2019 Mac Pro with a standard video card (to be upgraded)
Truly, the colors are very close to the true thing and my output looks great.
The built-in speakers are quite good.
The overall style/appearance is very nice and the stand takes up little space and is sturdy.
My only complaint is that even though this monitor was specifically designed to connect to and work with Mac OS, you still can not control the volume from the keyboard which means that you have to either reach for the toggle at the bottom of the monitor or find and click on the volume control using your mouse. My thought is that if Apple monitors could be controlled by keyboard strokes decades ago, LG should be able to do that today.
Long story short. If someone were to steal or break this monitor, I would go out and purchase another one just like it.
LG said that they will fix and send back the monitor, but they don’t know when, and since they drop the monitor and have body damage now, it will be send with aesthetic unpleasant look, because their policy doesn’t cover that, and there is no refund for it. Oh boy it’s impossible to hate more a company than I’m right now after hearing that. That’s a complete disregard to consumer rights! This company is the worse!
DO NOT BUY! The monitor get some panel problem in 3 months of use, then went to warranty repair, came back after a month totally broken with signs of drop by the side and front glass trashed. I send back in the next day and it's being another month without no sign, no email, no calls from LG nothing. I already bought a replacement and I want my money back, therefore LG support simply stop answering my messages, they don't refund, neither sent the fixed monitor back.
Avoid this headache, don't buy it!
Original review:
I bought my about 3 months ago, I've already contacted LG for support, they will send a box to my address and I'll need to ship it to get it fixed.
A day before 3 months with this monitor it start a weird behavior, suddenly the USB-C stop working as display, it still chargers my MacBook Pro, but it doesn't recognized it as a connected display anymore. Then I added the DisplayPort cable, it worked, and I noticed many horizontal lines in the screen (see the pic) it goes all the way like that.
My first though is that could be cable or something else, so I disconnected everything and restarted the monitor, in the settings menu of the monitor I can see that horizontal lines, well, it's not because of anything connected, the monitor simply is gone.
Very annoying to need to do the support process to get it fixed, but the hard part is that I use it professionally and I can't stay without a secondary monitor, then I'll need to buy another replacement while this is being fixed.
--- UPDATE 2020-01-06 ---
After about 20 days waiting, they've sent the monitor back. As you can see in the pictures, there is one with the dead pixels screen, then two pictures showing the perfect state that I send the monitor in the box, and the last picture is how I turned on once it came from the service.
Clearly the monitor was damage either by the service or by the UPS transportation. Despite the FRAGILE stickers all around the box, once I turned on, that broken image was everything that lasted from this screen.
Also LG support system is so broken that it doesn't store the apartment number, so the guy from the UPS went all the way to talk with the manager to find my apartment, that was added to the ticket, online and by phone.
I'm waiting they send the new label to send it back and hopefully they will send me a working unit, therefore I have not much expectations for that, probably I will need to go to Apple and buy their new monitor since LG might take too long and I need it to work.
Unfortunately I can't recommend, specially because of the poor durability and abismal lack of support from LG.

First, I love the size. 34" is just wide enough to fit plenty of windows while not being problematic with being flat instead of curved. I have the scaling set in macOS to look like 3360x1417 and can comfortably fit three browser windows without it being weird.
The resolution makes text just as sharp at the 5K Planar monitor I was coming from. I haven't noticed any negative impact from the anti-glare coating, which was a huge problem with my Dell 4K monitors.
Colors are, of course, beautiful before and after calibrating. Hardware calibration is a plus and their calibration software was very easy to use.
The speakers are pretty surprising. Before this monitor I had been using my 2018 Macbook Pro's speakers in clamshell mode. Needless to say, that sounded pretty bad. The speakers in this monitor sound slightly better than that. One downside is that volume control doesn't work from the OS, but you can work around this by controlling the volume through EDID with software.
I haven't noticed any image retention, wake from sleep works fine, macOS 10.14.5 recognized it without problems, no random blackouts, no dead or stuck pixels. All of the negatives I'd read before are thankfully not happening here. I'll note that this particular monitor was manufactured in March of 2019 and their software says the firmware (I assume?) is version (3.02, 2.14). It's possible there was a bad batch or a firmware update, not sure, but so far so good!
Now, it all isn't roses and sunshine! I did experience a problem. While plugging in with the Thunderbolt 3 cable worked fine, using DisplayPort with an eGPU was less fine in macOS. Without going into too much detail (though I could if it would help someone), a simply plist override in macOS will make the OS detect the correct resolution through DisplayPort and everything works perfectly.
Top reviews from other countries
Scaled perfectly, and a true ultra wide 4K monitor (33% wider, at 200% scaling compared to a 27” 4K display) which is exactly what I was looking for.
Because the monitor is straight and ultra wide, the edges look a bit far.
Quality and design of the monitor is top notch. The stand is made of metal. As is the bottom of the height adjustable stand post. Top has a plastic cover, and the back is a nice matte white. I wish the cable connectors were a bit hidden, because the way my desk is positioned you can see the back of the monitor. Small design complaint.
Front of the monitor is beautiful, no buttons or markings. The top, and the side bezels are similar thickness, the bottom is slightly thicker (1-2mm). The one button/joystick control is intuitive and easy to use.
The monitor is not cheap though, you can purchase 3-4 27” 4K monitors with USB-C connectors for the price. It’s more than the LG ultrafine 5k for Apple displays. But if you’re looking for a single display solution, in a well built single cable connection package, this is a good choice to shortlist.
The lateral stability of the stand is horrible. It just bounces like a cheap samsung monitor; probably using the same design under the plastic. The vesa mount is sunken and not compatible with all mounts - a tabletop sign mount I was using for a larger screen wasn't compatible with this monitor.
The overall review for this monitor is positive, but once I wanted to ask Amazon community about the flickering, a bunch of other reviews showed up with others experiencing the same flickering.
This was hooked up to my Mac Mini via display port, Xbox One S via HDMI and MacBook Pro 14" via USB-C. The only cable that was not supplied was the HDMI, but the flickering has happened on all inputs with and without supplied cable. Hope to get this solved, otherwise I am going to return it.
Unboxed, enabled DP1.4 and DCI-P3 modes, and plugged it into a M1 Mac Studio using the T3 cable and all resolutions are available.
Uniformity test looks good. Everything I’ve worked on so far including hdr has looked very uniform.
