"A very high performance and visually stunning display with some unfortunate design issues.First the cables plug in low in the back making the cords visible from the bottom of the screen. I'm having to buy some angle adapters to get them to route out of the way so they aren't visible all the time.Second, there's an important firmware update that needs to be installed, otherwise every four hours of use the screen will put up a LARGE notice asking to run an OLED care process. This process will automatically start after 1 minute unless canceled. When started, the screen will turn off for a few minutes before it can be used again. Super inconvenient in the middle of a work day. The firmware update lets you set a much longer timer on this notice.Third, and related to the second point, the control buttons are located on the back middle of the monitor. So you have to reach up underneath it to cancel the OLED care or change inputs. Not easily accessible like to the side under the bezel like every other monitor I've ever had. It means I have to raise my monitor high above my speaker to get to it. The monitor raises and lowers easily, but again inconvenient."

I got this as an upgrade from an IPS ultrawide (with 120 hz refresh), and the difference was immediate! From the amazing contrast to the colors that just pop, this has been an amazing experience. And the 240 hz just makes things feel buttery smooth. Highly recommended.grant

so far so good. perfect colors and deep DEEP blacks. series x consoles cant display full screen on these ultrawide monitors but it doesn't really matter for a couple reasons. 1. i mainly game on PC now. and 2. even when it places the black bars on each side of the screen, they are pitch black and if ur playing in a dark room, u cant even really tell they are there. still i wouldn't get this monitor if ur mainly on console. but for pc its incredible. i do recommend this monitor for anybody who may have been on the fence about getting a qd oled. i went from a ktc 27inch 1440p monitor before this and its a night and day difference with the colors. even tho they are both 1440p, the ultrawide just looks better hands down. not to mention the lightning quick .03 response time and 240 hz refresh rate. ok glaze fest over ;) buy this monitorjoses amazon69

The MSI 34” QD-OLED curved monitor is honestly insane. I bought it mainly for cinematic games and movies and it completely changed how everything feels. Playing Resident Evil 2 Remake in ultrawide is crazy immersive, it feels like you’re actually inside the game and not just looking at a screen. The colors are super vibrant, blacks are perfect, and HDR scenes look amazing. The screen is huge and having all that space is great for stuff like Roblox Studio and multitasking too. Motion looks super smooth and everything just feels premium. I didn’t expect it to be this good but yeah, I’m really impressed and glad I went with this one. It’s easily my favorite monitor I’ve owned so far.sothefox

Fantastic monitor. I recently upgraded from an IPS panel to this OLED model and it has been exceptional.Dark scenes in games and movies look amazing and the colors stand out vibrantly. I was initially on the fence about getting one due to most oled monitors brightness in sdr content but this one gets just as bright if not brighter than my old IPS panel.Overall it has far exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a nice 4k monitor to play games or movies on.Anonymous

Great OLED screen with true blacks and vibrant colors. Found it really impressive in space games like star citizen, and it really pops in games like cyberpunk. Comes with a hdmi 2.1 but I picked up a nice display port cable as there were some glitches I found while using the hdmi. Highly recommend this monitor.german pellacani

I’m extremely happy with the MSI MPG 341CQPX QD‑OLED. For the price, the quality is honestly incredible. The picture is stunning — deep blacks, super vibrant colors, and the 240Hz + 0.03ms response time makes everything feel insanely smooth. Gaming on this monitor is a completely different experience.Setup was easy, and I really appreciate the adjustable stand. The connectivity options (HDMI, DP, USB‑C) make it simple to hook up everything without adapters.One thing that really surprised me was how simple the product registration was. Took just a couple of minutes, and it instantly enrolled me in the MSI Rewards Program, which is a nice bonus for buying their products.Overall, this monitor delivers top‑tier OLED performance at a very competitive price, and the whole experience — from unboxing to registration — was smooth and hassle‑free. Highly recommended.What Customers Talk About
