Best Ultrawide Gaming Monitors 2023

For me best bang for the buck is BenQ Mobiuz EX3415R.
It's older monitor, but you can buy it now for around $620 which is absolutely great price.
The monitor has good colors and what's best - it' s fast (you even did a review of this monitor).
In latest firmware they also fixed the brightness in SDR, Now you can have 400nits even in SDR mode.
The gamma is not the best, but if you set light tuner to -2 and gamma to 2, it's pretty good.
 
Dell's 34" VA 144Mhz S3422DWG is $499.99 (less on Amazon) and there are a number of other name-brand monitors that equal this. The ViewSonic model in the article isn't available now at a reasonable price, but they do have others that are under $400.

The August 2023 version of this article mentions WUHD 5120x2160 as a popular ultrawide monitor resolution, but then doesn't list any WUHD monitors in the list. Can you please add at least one from LG or Dell?

They are expensive, but so is the bendable display listed in this roundup. Thanks,
 
I'd be hard pressed to have a Corsair monitor anywhere on my list. Over a year since release, it's become clear that they've dropped support for their Xeneon line, which NEVER got added to their iCUE ecosystem.
 
Alienware AW3423DWF

Reasons to avoid
-No flaws or consequence

Not entirely accurate they still suffer from burn in being OLED.

And you can find multiple reports of this on the internet.

I've been using LG's 45GR95QE since February. I don't think I can ever go back to a normal (non-OLED, non-HDR) monitor again

With the low PPI on this display i'm going to assume you only play games on it and don't do anything productivity wise that relies on text.

Actually, I've been trying to see if I could get the monitor to burn in under "normal" conditions and as such I've been using it for work too.

The PPI is not ideal, but with some tweaking it is tolerable.

That said, I'll be switching to a more normal monitor for work soon.... because the PPI does suck 😀
 
I've been pretty disappointed that the ultrawide segment hasn't seen mid range mini LED backlit displays like 16:9 has. I'm still not quite trusting OLED to jump onto the AW34DWF (and the pixel layout leaves a bit to be desired) but I'd really like to have decent HDR and the only choices are much more expensive than the Alienware.
