#Ultra wide monity software
As per the download page, this software does the following things: There was also a piece of software availalable (optional) that supported the Thinkstation P44-W called Lenovo ThinkColor. The base is quite heavy and large, but flat so you don’t really lose desk space when things can be placed on it. The stand it’s on is also height adjustable purely by pushing up or down on the monitor itself, and I haven’t had it slide down without me making it. It wasn’t too hard to do following this official guide. I also wanted to check the monitor was on the latest firmware before I played with it too much – and yes, the monitor has firmware you can upgrade.

The monitor itself measures 41.5″ wide (ignoring the curve) and it felt a bit comical taking it out of the box, like holding an oversized novelty item… but mixed with holding something that was purely impressive in it’s size. It’s worth noting that Lenovo also released a Legion Y44w Gaming Monitor with identical specs, but a different chassis around the monitor – so pick whichever you like the look of more, or can get cheaper.Ī giant box turned up, bigger than I expected. Here’s also some great reviews: Storagereview, Anandtech and TheVerge. Power consumption Note: Power consumption figures are for the monitor and the power supply combined. If you want the pure specs, here they are from Lenovo: Awesome! I really wanted to see if it was usable for work and home, and if I had to change my ways for the better or worse to accommodate the vast difference in screen. Lenovo came to the party as part of their Lenovo Insiders program and gave me a ThinkVision P44W-10 to try. Going from the old 4:3 ‘square’ screens to 16:9 wide screens seemed much more logical, but was this over the top? I didn’t know if it would just be too weird having a stretched screen.
#Ultra wide monity windows
Alternatively, the single 27″ screen didn’t have this problem, but had less screen real estate I couldn’t really run two windows side by side without it feeling awkward due to the resulting shape appearing squished. Was one giant screen better than two for me? Everyone’s different, but I liked the idea of having a centre of the two screens you can look at for ergonomic reasons – not possible with two 24″ screens unless they’re stacked (which then presents other ergonomic problems of having to look up), or one in the centre and one off to the side.

I also had apprehensions which put me off buying one. I had a 27″ 1440p Chinese import brand that did the job quite nicely at home, and two 24″ screens in the office but there’s something alluring about a single giant pane of ‘glass’. For years I’d been wanting to try an Ultrawide monitor.
