The source specification records display resolution as 3840 x 1600 pixels. This is a specification, not an independent performance measurement. Check the exact model and the original critic reviews for real-world results.
Where can I compare prices for LG 38CB99-W?

Not necessarily. Check the laptop port supports the required display mode and charging level.
Is a curved monitor always more immersive?
It depends on size, desk distance and use. Try it for text and multi-window work, not only video.
