Can't really find anything on this monitor beyond a brief mention on tftcentral and a few reddit threads. Hopefully Daniel can clarify specs and maybe even a release?

- 21:9
- 3840x1600 Res.
- 144Hz
- GSync
- HDR10
- Currently expected March 2019 (according to rumour) but I fully expect that to slip to Q1 2020.

That’s not an LG monitor as such, it’s a new panel being produced by LG Display. It’s not expected to go in to production until March 2019 at best, and so likely to be several months from there before any retail monitor is available using it. See full news piece first published about this at TFT central: http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/news_archive/39.htm#panels_lgdisplay

Ah, right

Do we have any idea if anyone has plans for using the panel then? I literally can't find anything on this other than the TFT Central mention and a few forum threads.. Seems perfect to upgrade from my XR34

that Res suggests 38"

I received some stuff about 2019 screens this morning, and there is something that looks like it is what you are talking about

I have asked for clarification, so I can give an idea of date and if its real or not

My XR34 is due an upgrade, HDR and higher refresh is required -- the extra 4 inches and pixels will be a bonus

The price doesn't really bother me too much as long as it's not so extreme I'd need a mortgage to buy it

That's incredibly disappointing.

Thank you very much for the news of the latest panel development plans from all 3 major panel manufacturers: LG.Display, AU Optronics and Samsung. I found all the articles very useful and enjoyed as much as one can enjoy such a literature.

I saw a link to the monitor panel part database (http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/articles/monitor_panel_parts.htm) in all 3 of the articles with the corresponding updates.

Just small corrections to consider for the monitor panel part database's editors:

1. Displays with resolution of 2560x1080 and 5120x2160 have aspect ratio of 64:27 (not 21:9).
2. Displays with resolution of 3440x1440 have aspect ratio of 43:18 (not 21:9).
3. Displays with resolution of 3840x1200 have aspect ratio of 16:5 (not 29:9).
4. Aspect ratio of 24:10 is 12:5 (because 12 and 5 are mutually simple).

I suspect that the table shows incorrect (1-3) and unoptimized (4) values for a mass consumer. But a mass consumer doesn't visit this page. So, here you go.

While technically correct, the ratios are left with respect to 9 or 10 to be comparable to 16:9 / 16:10 so the average consumer understands. Even techies, like on this forum, don't want to be working out how 64:27 relates to 16:9. A lot of specs get rounded to a "standard value" to be most easily understood and compared. So yeah, you're correct - but it's not helpful/useful to be in this case.

Anyone seen any news on this? Monitor manufacturers are incredible when it comes to keeping information secret :/ Not heard anything on this panel or the Acer X35/Asus PG35 at all....
