Amazon’s Lightning Deals start at specific times and are limited in both quantity and duration. Quick access is worthwhile, as interesting items can also be temporarily reserved in the shopping cart.

By now, almost every PC user and TV consumer should be accustomed to widescreen formats – however, LG takes it a step further with the 29UM68-P. Instead of the familiar 16:9 format, the display uses the 21:9 aspect ratio, thus offering significantly more display area horizontally. Accordingly, the resolution is also impressive at 2,560×1,080 pixels (with a 29″ display diagonal). The extra width is not only useful for serious work but also for gaming: More and more titles support the ultra-wide format either natively or with workarounds, providing not only increased immersion but also tactical advantages. Cinemas have been using this format for a long time, allowing Blu-ray films to be displayed on the monitor without annoying black bars. Also clever are the picture-in-picture function and the ability to display content from two computers side by side on the screen. Retro adventure on the left, Excel work on the right – now we just have to learn how to use two mice simultaneously. The refresh rate of the 29UM68-P is 75 Hz, and it supports AMD’s FreeSync.
