LG 34WR55QK-B 34" WQHD Height Adjustable USB-C Curved Monitor

This deal has ended. We are watching for the next one — check below for current live deals.

A 34-inch ultrawide curved display with USB-C connectivity and height adjustment at under £300 solves a specific and genuinely frustrating problem: the cost of building a productive, ergonomic desk setup without buying a separate hub, monitor arm, and standard flat screen that leaves you craning your neck. The 3440×1440 WQHD resolution gives you meaningful horizontal real estate — enough to run a document and a browser side by side without either feeling cramped — while the 21:9 curve pulls peripheral content naturally into view rather than forcing you to pivot your head repeatedly across a flat panel.

Who Is This For?

This monitor suits hybrid workers, content creators, and developers who spend long hours at a single screen and want the width of a dual-monitor setup without the bezel splitting their workspace in two. The USB-C input makes it particularly well matched to MacBook or modern laptop users who want a single-cable connection for both video and power delivery. If you're a competitive gamer chasing high refresh rates above 100Hz, look elsewhere — this panel prioritises workspace utility over fast-motion performance, and you'll find more targeted options in our best computing deals guide.

What Buyers Say

Owners of LG's WR55 series consistently praise the build quality of the stand and the accuracy of out-of-box colour calibration, which holds up well for photo editing without immediate adjustment. The HDR10 implementation receives more measured feedback — it's functional rather than transformative, lacking the local dimming that would make it genuinely impactful. The most repeated complaint concerns the speakers: they exist, but most owners connect external audio within a week.

The Deal

Currently priced at £299.99, down from £379.99, the saving is £80 — roughly 21% off. This product is newly tracked, so there's no historical data confirming whether £379.99 was a genuine long-term price or a briefly inflated reference point. That uncertainty matters. It's a reasonable price for the specification, but hold off buying if you can afford to watch it for a few weeks and let the price history fill in.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, the USB-C port on the 34WR55QK-B supports DisplayPort Alt Mode for video signal alongside power delivery, allowing you to connect a compatible laptop with a single cable while charging it. However, the power delivery is rated at 90W, so very high-performance laptops under heavy load may charge slowly or not maintain full battery during intensive tasks. Always verify your laptop's USB-C compatibility before relying solely on this connection.

This monitor suits productivity users, content creators, and casual gamers well — the 34-inch WQHD (3440x1440) curved panel gives genuine multitasking width, and the height-adjustable stand makes long sessions more comfortable than fixed-height alternatives at this price. The refresh rate is 100Hz, which is adequate but will disappoint competitive gamers accustomed to 144Hz or higher. Colour-critical professionals should also note this is a VA panel, so it won't match the colour accuracy of an IPS display at a comparable price.

This product has only recently been tracked, so there is no historical price data to confirm whether £299.99 represents a true low or simply a routine discount from an inflated RRP. The 21% reduction from £379.99 looks attractive on paper, but without past pricing records it is impossible to say how often or how deeply this model has been discounted before. Treating this as a cautious 'watch' rather than an immediate buy is the prudent approach until more price history accumulates.

The Dell U3423WE is a frequent rival in this segment and typically offers an IPS Black panel with superior contrast and colour accuracy compared to the LG's VA panel, along with a built-in KVM switch — making it a stronger choice for multi-device office setups. However, the Dell regularly sits above £400, so if the LG is available at £299.99, you are getting a meaningfully larger screen with USB-C at a lower outlay, at the cost of some colour fidelity. For general productivity and media use the LG represents the better value; for colour-sensitive or multi-device work, the Dell's extra features justify its premium.
