LG to unveil 21:9 curved IPS display

According to new reports, LG will be unveiling a new IPS 21:9 Curved UltraWide Monitor at the upcoming IFA 2014 event in Berlin.
The 34-inch monitor has 3440 x 1440 resolution, supports Thunderbolt 2 for high-speed data transfers and as expected allows daisy chaining for multiple devices. In addition, the display has a built-in 7W stereo speaker system.

"Many people spend more time in front of computer monitors than they do in front of TV sets and yet the industry's biggest monitor manufacturers don't seem to innovate at the same pace as TV manufacturers," said Hyoung-sei Park, head of the IT Business Division at LG Electronics' Home Entertainment Company. "At LG, innovation in display technologies isn't just limited to our market-leading TV products but are actively being implemented in our advanced PC monitors. And that's why we're particularly proud to be introducing at IFA the world's first 21:9 Curved UltraWide monitor with a curved IPS display which delivers a wide 178-degree viewing angle for an immersive viewing experience."



IFA 2014 starts on September 5th.
