Thanks, I actually bought a monitor a few days ago, HP X34 - 3440x1440@165Hz. I'm getting 100fps+ in most games and can hit 165 in some. Definitely not a bad experience by any means and a huge upgrade over my old 1080p 75Hz monitor.

As big a sucker me, lol.

I bought my S20 FE to get away from OnePlus for a change. I've been looking to get a smartwatch, and decided I don't want a Mi Warch or anything that's a glorified fitness band, so realistically a Galaxy Watch was my only choice. It just so happened that the Watch 5 got released and Buds 2 (non-pro) were bundled for preorders of the watch.

Just like that my single Samsung device turned into three. Then I decided to get a tablet, and at that point it was obvious I'd get a Galaxy Tab, thus completing the Samsung ecosystem lock-in. This shit does work, especially the nearly seamless reconnecting of earbuds between phone and tablet. Not nearly as good as what I've seen Apple could do, but honestly, I'm happy.

And now whenever I think about a potential future phone upgrade, Samsung appears to be the best choice. Fuck me haha. Not that I don't enjoy those toys.

The ecosystem problem is true even if you don't use apple products. I'm in the same boat, everything's Samsung here, I'm scared to leave.

Not even gonna give this a click. Of course it's still q contender. It's the top of the line offering from the biggest Android OEM on the planet. It will be a contender 12 months from now and it will be a contender 24 months from now.

Hi Mishaal. Asking this for your future review.

1. How's the vibration motor?
2. How do you find the "gimmicky" Nothing cable, any quality concerns?
3. General fingerprint reader experience
4. Any issues with cellular reception/calls?

And these I believe you could answer before the embargo.

1. Favorite feature of the Nothing OS 2.0
2. How comfortable is it to use when laying in bed? Particularly when holding it above yourself and typing.
3. How big of a difference does it make to use the entire glyph interface vs just the flashlight? Not just for the camera experience but like, looking for stuff under the bed etc. And how easy is it to use it like this (one toggle or digging deep in the settings)?

What the hell does mandatory overtime mean. That's just your regular hours then. Is it a way to make your salary look better as it's for the hours you're supposedly working?

Appreciate the details. But I'm consciously giving up a dual monitor setup. I don't even use the second one anymore.

Read You is a beautiful app with material you design. Works great, but the tiny thumbnails, and the fact that not all thumbnails load (whereas in Feeder they do) is my major point of complaint. Still I like using it.

I agree ultrawide monitors aren't as well supported, that's a valid concern.

But the solution is not to buy a 4K monitor instead. That's roughly twice the pixels to power with that GPU. That I know won't be a balanced match.

Awesome, thanks!

29" 21:9 at 1080p has about the same pixel density as 24" 16:9 at 1080p, which is what I'm using right now.

M34WQ is the flat IPS one, right? I asked about it in this thread but my question was about the weong monitor.

On your M34WQ, how is the antiglare coating, in your opinion? Is it as grainy and distracting as people claim it to be?

I'm fully prepared to have to play some games in 16:9 if that's the case. I naturally want to get the full experience where possible, but I'm ready to compromise.

My potential concern with lowering the resolution is the fact that 1080p and 1440p don't align that well with one another. Bigger issue with text than with games, but I haven't had a chance to see that supposed issue with my own eyes.
