LG Electronics (LG) launched its latest LG MyView smart monitor (model 34SR65QC),1 a 34-inch display with a unique format and a range of features for better productivity and entertainment experiences. This is the company's first smart monitor to feature a 21:9 aspect ratio curved UltraWide display, offering an expansive desktop display solution for customers looking for better workflow, greater visual immersion, or both.

The new LG MyView smart monitor features a 34-inch VA panel with WQHD (3440 x 1440)2 resolution, offering 300 nits of brightness, a wide viewing angle and 99 percent coverage of the sRGB color gamut. These specifications, combined with the screen's 21:9 aspect ratio, make the LG MyView an excellent side-by-side desktop companion for office workers, developers and other digital professionals.

The 34SR65QC facilitates greater work efficiency with its high-resolution elongated display, useful screen organization features, and support for various home office applications. The 21:9 UltraWide display provides additional screen real estate, allowing users to keep multiple tabs and windows open at the same time and organize them optimally using the integrated Screen Split feature. Additionally, users can take advantage of applications such as mail, online document editors, and cloud storage right on the monitor without having to connect to a PC or laptop. The 34SR65QC's extra width allows users to operate productivity apps in full-screen mode (16:9) and still have enough space for generative AI tools, which can be comfortably docked to the right side of the screen in a smaller window size (5:9).

The 34SR65QC is also ideal for those looking for a theater-like experience at home. Its UltraWide display allows users to enjoy 21:9 content as it should be seen, eliminating the letter-boxing effect necessary to preserve the aspect ratio of conventional 16:9 monitors. This new model is the first in the LG MyView line to allow streaming of video captured in 21:9 format, bringing a cinematic feel to streamed content and giving users a true feeling of being part of the action.

Like all LG MyView smart monitors, the 34SR65QC comes equipped with the LG webOS platform, which provides access to a wide range of content services, including Netflix, YouTube and Prime Video, along with personalized viewing recommendations and intuitive navigation. For even more content options, users can head to LG Channels, LG's free premium content service, and explore over 300 channels³ covering categories such as movies, news, sports, drama and children's programming. Plus, with AirPlay 2 compatibility⁴ and ScreenShare, users can stream or mirror content from their smartphones, and enjoy all their favorite mobile apps and games on the monitor's large curved screen.

The 34SR65QC comes with a convenient remote control that provides basic functions such as power and volume control. It's also compatible with the LG Magic Remote, which offers easy-to-use features like AI Concierge and one-touch access to popular streaming services such as Netflix, Prime Video and Disney+. AI Concierge, activated by pressing the Magic Remote's microphone button, recognizes different voices and recommends content based on each user's viewing history.

Additionally, once the LG MyView Smart Monitor has been connected to the LG ThinQ™ smart home platform, the app can transform the user's smartphone into a remote control with touch and voice capabilities. For added convenience, users can manage monitor settings and navigate and search webOS using a keyboard and mouse.

“By expanding the LG MyView Smart Monitor lineup with our new 34-inch curved UltraWide model, we are providing consumers with a comprehensive productivity and entertainment solution.”, said YS Lee, Vice President and Head of IT Business Unit, LG Business Solutions Company. “We will continue to introduce versatile smart monitors that combine innovative designs with superior performance and practical features.”
