For £375.97 ex-VAT, the ASUS VA34VCPSR is a solid “serious work” ultrawide pick if you want more screen real estate than a 27” without stepping up to the fussier (and often pricier) flagship tiers. The 34” curved form factor tends to feel genuinely useful for spreadsheets, multiple documents side-by-side, and long coding sessions—less head turning, fewer window swaps, and better day-to-day ergonomics than a standard flat setup. If your team lives in office apps or admin-heavy workflows, this class of monitor usually earns its keep quickly.
That said, I wouldn’t buy this for teams who care most about deep colour accuracy or colour-critical design work, or anyone who’s sensitive to “it’s not OLED” realities like contrast and blacks. Also, ultrawides can be a bit divisive in purely general-purpose deployments—some software layouts just don’t play as nicely, and you’ll want to make sure your standard workstation graphics output and docking setup are a good match. If you’re buying for a mixed-usage office, it’s a great “productivity default”; if you’re buying for creative studios or highly colour-managed roles, you’ll likely want to spend elsewhere or shortlist a more colour-focused model.
