Hows the new monitor going mate?

Just a quick update on mine..for the money im still blown-away with it. If it was a 400-500 pound monitor, it would still be worth it, I have seen a few reviews of identical ones on YT and in America, they are called "Sceptre"..and seem to be OK..anyway, time will tell

Hi mate, it's brilliant! The only issue I have is only down to the bonkers 5120X1440 resolution, YouTube cannot play full screen

That's the only grip coming from a conventional 4k screen. I'm finding games and just general task enjoyable due to the extended space, I can browse Chrome and watch YouTube at same time, talk about multitasking ha!!

Glad your enjoying it mate I genuinely still cannot believe the price, it's 39" 165Hz @£295 that's mental really. If I had space I'd probably buy one. Perhaps I should have bought 2 and ran dual monitors instead

Nice, having no bezels are a huge +. It might take a lot to drive like you said..but the immersion will be second to none no doubt!

Just pulled the trigger on this. Should be here tomorrow. Really curious to see how this is, especially for the money.

Hello!, I'm thinking of buying one of these monitors and was wondering if you could give me the dimensions of the stand base (the trianlge footprint) as I cannot find them in the manual or monitor specs, thank you.

Says it will take up to 3 weeks for delivery, hope it comes sooner than that, said they had 10 in stock at the time of ordering.

I got there too, I used there store via eBay for some good discount..

I just checked the link you gave, and it is showing as OOS? :confused:

I must have ordered the last one then? price for me was £289.97, what price did you score yours for mate?.

Zeebedy · 28 Nov 2021 at 20:10

yeah, i think it was just shy of £300.

I was there at the Huddersfield store yesterday to pickup a new monitor, returned the Samsung monitor as I found it quite difficult to use due to the size. Unfortunately all the electriq 39s were out of stock or I would have got one l.

They had a HG392PCB 38.5" WQHD 165Hz Curved Gaming Monitor for around £90 more than the electriq that looked very nice with almost the exact specs.

Decided to buy the Hannspree HG342PCB 34'' 144Hz Ultrawide only due to having a much better pixel density and saving £70 over the G34WQC which has the exact same Samsung panel lsm340yp05
