Lenovo Legion Y44w-10 43 4 DWUXGA 144Hz WLED Curved HDR Gaming Monitor with AMD Radeon FreeSync 2 3840x1200

The reviews are spot on. Great graphics quality, at least on DCS well powered. Stupid interface. Not frustrating, but stupid, maddening. Otherwise superb. For a huge screen it doesnt seem it on the desk due to its slim, very sleek design. The screen is easily mounted and adjustable with ease out of the box. Set up is obvious. I like the curve. As I use readers, a flat screen that long would play with my focus and likely cause headaches. Cant say I din’t still get them with heavy use, but the over all experience is grand. Highly recommend.

So I had to order this from Lenovo since Amazon was out of stock at the time. I've been pretty satisfied so far. My major reasons for upgrading from my 32" Ultrawide 1080P monitor was I wanted a slightly higher resolution and a higher refresh rate. After looking at the 49" monitor (too big) and the 38" ultrawide from Samsung (too expensive), I landed on this Lenovo and I'm very glad I did! First off, it's a great design that looks terrific on my desk. The RGB for the speaker adds a little to the design as well. The 43" size is perfect for my work (I use spreadsheets alot) and my gaming. Here are my pros: 1) Design (looks great!). Also, the base is solid and holds this huge monitor very, very well. I also enjoy the tilting and height adjustments features. Very smooth and easy to use. 2) The quality of the screen is solid if not outstanding. The 144mhz refresh rate makes a huge difference and the resolution is a nice balance between the aged 1080P and1440P (which I personally thinks is too small a resolution for a screen this big). 3) Even though Nvidia hasn't certified this monitor as G-Sync compatible, it runs G-Sync perfectly with a buttery smooth picture, especially in gaming. 4) I play alot of more current games and all of them are fully compatible with this monitor's unique aspect ratio. No black borders on any games and the immersive gameplay from this perfectly curved monitor is nothing short of impressive. For instance, COD MW runs perfectly at 180 to 200 fps, partnered with my RTX 3070. Rocket League runs at a staggering 400 to 500 fps with perfect colors and smooth graphics. 5) I thought most of the preset picture settings were fine. I tweaked them a hair but it was nice to have something right out of the box that didn't require an hours worth of adjustments. The Cons: 1) The OSD is not intuitive at all. Very irritating to use in fact, but again since I haven't had to make alot of adjustments so far, it's not a huge deal. That being said I wish Lenovo had taken a page from LG and used a joystick design. 2) Although the speaker has RGB, the speaker sound itself is unremarkable to say the least. Also, connecting with the Bluetooth was problematic at best. I have an inexpensive set of Bose speakers that I decided to keep using instead of the included speaker just due to the bass alone. The included speaker sounded tinny with almost no bass whatsoever. But I still left the speaker installed with the RGB on as I like the look. 3) I have been able to connect a second PC to this monitor but the KVM is pretty awkward and not easy to use. Again, the OSD here needs some work. 4) I wish Lenovo had designed a better cable management system for this monitor. I was relieved the base had the three holes cut out on each side as it allowed me to use cable ties to hide the cords somewhat. But the design and positioning of power and connection outlets could have been better. All in all I'm extremely satisfied with my choice and the pricing was very reasonable compared to other similarly sized monitors. I'd definitely recommend this if you're looking for a great gaming monitor that can also easily handle your normal day to day needs. Read more

BUYER BEWARE!!! The invoice says that it was NEW. This product was NOT NEW!! it has a sticker on it that says REFURBISHED, and I could tell by how the contents were packaged with a clear plastic bag. When it arrived the box was in such bad shape I thought the monitor was going to be broken. This monitor is out of warranty as if to say Lenovo does not support this product anymore THERE IS NOT WARRANTY and only supports for Windows. I cannot control the on-screen controls for any of the monitor settings except the video display port. Read more

I purchased this monitor through a different retailer in December 2019, but have been so very frustrated from day 1. Cons: - THERE IS NO KVM FEATURE AS ADVERTISED. There is an extensive thread about this on the Lenovo community forums (which Lenovo ignores). I bought the monitor excited to have my work and personal laptops both connected via USB-C only (power + data) and an easy way to switch between inputs. NOPE. You have to use the HORRIBLE on-screen display (OSD) and it takes at least 11 button clicks to switch between the two devices. It's literally easier to just switch cables, which wears out the cables and the ports on the laptops/computers and defeats the purpose. - Not enough USB-A ports on the back. And if you use the included USB speaker (I wouldn't recommend it, it sounds absolutely terrible), it takes up 2 ports (there are only 2 on back). - Only one audio-out port, on the pop-down front-hub so you have to have a speaker cable sticking out in the front of the monitor - so unless you don't use a plug-in external speaker, you will have to have this hidden hub and the speaker cable exposed at all times. - The Lenovo "Artery" software to control some of the monitor features is total garbage. It looks like it was programmed by a couple of teenage incels in their free time after school. - The OSD is terrible. The buttons feel cheap and like they're going to break. The menu is difficult and unintuitive to navigate. And since you have to do it constantly to switch inputs, you get to live with it. Pros: - The power supply over USB-C does work well - The image quality is good and the high refresh rate is nice as long as your video card AND cable can support it (I came to find that my work laptop couldn't push this resolution at 144Hz, but my personal laptop could - and I had to buy a new cable to make it work). - The size is immense and awesome. People are blown away when they see it - I like that the included stand has height and tilt adjustments Read more

If you are going to hook one PC and one keyboard and one mouse, this will be ok. If you are thinking about multiple connections...I would advise a hard pass. The controls on this thing make me wish I was never born - so frustrating. The instructions are perhaps the worst I have seen and make Ikea's instructions look like a literature masterpiece. And when they says bezel less...it is crap. Huge bezel on this. Read more

Bought this used-like new from "prycedin". To my surprise, the item came well packaged within a day of ordering it. As expected there is a minor defect but its not enough reason for me to return it. Overall great screen for the value. Let me clarify that I did not buy this monitor for the kvm feature. I use this mainly for productivity purposes and light gaming. So far I have no complaints, but will update if anything comes up Read more
