Xiaomi launches new curved gaming monitor for the equivalent of $197

The Redmi G34WQ 2026 is a new monitor that has just been launched in China for the equivalent of around $197, although this is still a reduced price. Information on an international market launch is still pending. Given Xiaomi's track record in selling monitors globally, it is fair to assume that an international launch will follow soon.

The Redmi G34WQ 2026 has a 34-inch curved display with a radius of 1,500 millimeters, promising improved ergonomics and greater immersion. The manufacturer specifies the resolution as 3,440 x 1,440, with an aspect ratio of 21:9. It is neither mini-LED nor OLED, but a typical brightness of 400 cd/m² and a contrast ratio of 3,500:1 are specified. Accordingly, HDR content may not be displayed as well as on an OLED.

The panel is said to support a refresh rate of up to 180 Hz and a gray-to-gray response time of one millisecond. FreeSync support is advertised, allowing the output image to be synchronized with the display. Video signals can be delivered to the display via two DisplayPort 1.4 ports and two HDMI 2.0 ports. A ring of RGB lighting is featured on the back.
