Of course you can.
It's confusing because we all knew that the DisplayHDR 400 spec was poor for a LCD, but DisplayHDR 400 TRUBLACK!!! Is actually good for an oled monitor

I would wait to see how these displays handle things like ABSL and logo dimming before assuming they will be good for productivity. I tried using an LG OLED TV as a work monitor and the ABSL made it basically unusable.
The RGB pixel structure should at least improve text clarity, though, which was another issue with WOLED for productivity.
I'll be honest having used a 3340x1440 in the past, I really prefer my LG 38" GL950 ultrawide that is 3840x1600.. As it is HDR400 it kinda sucks at that, but hey its got everything else I want.
I won't go down to a 3440x1440 now, the extra 160 vertical makes a difference and being 3840 wide is nicer...
I use it for productivity as well as gaming but it's a really nice resolution.... 24:10 FTW
And this looks like a Alienware product (ie very "Gamer"), don't know why 3840x1600 isn't more widely adopted over 3440x1440 in general tho.

Its bizarre indeed. There are 27 inch 4K monitors yet 3840x1600 is limited to 38 inch screens.
Any rumored pricing or best guess at pricing for the 42 inch C2?
The 48inch was $1300 at launch last year, so maybe shave $200 off that
Price Revealed: $1300 USD

Damn, that is far cheaper than I expected. Maybe the TVs won't force you to mortgage your house after all. Maybe just sell a kidney or something.

Hmmmm.... I thought for sure Samsung's QD-OLED TVs would be expensive...like Sony expensive, if not more. But are they some how gonna be able to compete with LG price wise?? O_o
Edit- and will LG drop their OLED TV prices even lower?
They must have decreased it given the 42 LG is likely coming less than or equal to that even.
At this price, I'm totally in though. Hoping it turns out to be as incredible as the spec sheets.

Wow, that price is surprisingly low. Like half the price I expected.
Makes me hopeful for an even lower priced 27" model in the near future. Needs to be non glossy though.

Random question. Can you still use DLDSR with ultrawide resolutions?
Anyway, I'm definitely hoping I'll be able to successfully order one of these! 1440p ultrawide is the ultimate sweet spot for me at 34". The pixel density is really good, while it's cheaper to drive, so my RTX3080 will have much better longevity. There's also the massive plus for amazing color volume, deep blacks, Gsync Ultimate, and near instant response times.

Yes, of course.
I am using the older Alienware AW3418DW UW 1440p Gysnc 120Hz.
That's downright cheap considering the quality increase over normal LCD monitors and how expensive they are.
Oh hell yes. This shall be mine. Gonna replace my AW3418DW with this.Bump because they are selling this for $1300 US Dollars:

Does anyone know if a good KVM that doesn't break the bank? I want to dual purpose this monitor for work as well.
I'd love it but I would lose my mind worrying about burn-in from my Windows desktop. I'll leave OLED for my TV.
Sticking with the Alienware AW3418DW for my PC.

Yeah this really threw me for a loop when this display was first announced.
I think a lot of consumers will be comparing it against the 42" WOLEDs, which are probably going to be < $1200.
Depends on the size of said bank. I have a larger variant of this one which fully supports G-Sync, 144Hz, HDR and everything.

Does the one you linked not support Gsync, HDR, and High refresh rate?
Really considering selling my current LG ultrawide that I got last year and getting this. Also considering the 42" C2 but I'm not sure if I have enough depth on my desk for that (assuming they have a similar design as the C1 with the lower end sticking several inches out in the back).
Yep. I have the 38" AW Ultrawide and I'm not willing to give up the extra vertical resolution. It's SO, SO, SO much better for productivity, and in many games makes everything feel so much more expansive.
It does. I have the one that is dual monitor for 4 computers though.
I think I may grab this and grab a AWMS-2-LTH75 and use my current LG 34UC79G as the top monitor and then phase the 34UC79G with the 34 Alienware becomes the top monitor and the main is a 49' QD-OLED from Alienware. I hope we get a 32:9 QD-OLED from Alienware/Dell.
Nah it really depends on the supply. $1000+ high end UW market doesn't sell anything like hot cakes.
