Lenovo Legion R34-30 review - an ultrawide gaming monitor on a budget

With the gaming monitor world seeing all sorts of interesting developments in OLED technology, ultra-high refresh rates, and more, the Lenovo Legion R34-30 is something of a throwback to a simpler time. It's a decently large, 34-inch ultrawide LCD panel with a 3,440 x 1,440 resolution and reasonably speedy, but not ground-breaking, 180Hz refresh rate. It has few extra features to speak of, but has a reasonable price, and its VA panel produces an impressively high contrast ratio.

It's a combination that is enough to earn this display a spot on our best gaming monitor guide as an entry-level 34-inch option. However, the appeal of this Lenovo display does very much depend on getting it at the right price, and on your priorities for a gaming panel. I've put the monitor through its paces in games, response time testing, and image quality to show you what it can do.
