Corsair first entered the monitor space back in 2021 with the 32QHD165 and has since released a handful of screens to the market. Today we are checking out the company's latest offering, the Xeneon 34WQHD240-C, packing a 21:9 ultrawide QD-OLED panel from Samsung along with a 240Hz refresh rate and 1000 nits of peak brightness. Retailing for £1149 here in the UK, we put this monitor through its paces and find out if it's worth buying.

We've reviewed plenty of QD-OLED monitors this year, both in 4K/240Hz and 1440p/360Hz form. Today we're checking out our first 240Hz ultrawide model though, via Corsair's Xeneon 34WQHD240-C. This is the screen I first got hands-on with back at Computex 2024 and I've been keen to get one in for a proper review ever since.

Initially landing in the UK at £1149, when I started writing this review Corsair had dropped by the price by £170 and the 34WQHD240-C was retailing for £979.99. It has since gone back up to full price, so let's find out what this display has to offer.
