I wonder if this will come in at ~£850 meaning the previous flat version can be reduced in price.

I like the look of these curved screens, but 34 inches seems too small to see any benefits. For watching movies, I imagine watching on a curved 65 inch plus screen would be amazing. For gaming monitors, obviously it would be a lot more expensive, but 3 small bezel monitors seems like a much better option for the same effect, plus the benefit of extra peripheral screen space

No, I totally get the advantage for a curved screen on something like this. My current 2x 24" monitors are at a slight angle to each other, not completely flat, making it as close to a curved screen as you can get with two normal monitors. you move your head and eyes less when you have them set up like that.

ok guys, my monitor is 2560 x 1080. is it still 1080p or what?

confused, tunbridge wells.

1080p technically means 1080 Progressive lines. So yes, it is a 1080p 21:9 monitor.
