AOC Q2963PM 29" 21:9 UltraWide IPS LED Monitor Review

[admin]

The AOC Q2963PM is an ultra-wide, 29" IPS LED display monitor with a 21:9 aspect ratio. That is like having two 4:3 monitors side by side. It will accept two sources and show them to you Picture-in-Picture or Picture-by-Picture. It performed admirably on our HQV tests, it has integrated speakers, HDMI and DVI input (both cannot be active at the same time), and a D-Sub or DP input for your computer. It sports a fairly innovative pivot plate that allows up to 25 degrees of movement on the stand or on a wall mount. While we did find some idiosycracies, all in all, it is an excellent monitor. The only problem is the price. At $500, it certainly isn't cheap and you could easily pay less for two 16:9 monitors of similar sizes.

Just in case if anyone is interested how this monitor measures (luminescence, speed and color reproduction) vs other monitors here is review at tom's hardware:

And heck yea, I'd rather buy 3 16:9 monitors for same money, for example this one ASUS VS239H-P Black 23" 5ms (GTG) HDMI Widescreen LED Monitor 250 cd/m2 ASCR 50,000,000:1, IPS Panel - Newegg.com

I never got into multi monitor setups, so I just went with a Dell u2713H rev 5 and 2560x1440 is just fine
