One of the displays Dell announced at this year’s CES is the Dell UltraSharp 40 Curved WUHD U4021QW, Which claims to be „the world’s first 40-inch WUHD (5K2K) curved ultra-wide screen.“ 5K2K, in case you were wondering, translates to a pixel resolution of 5120 x 2160. This gives it the same number of vertical pixels as a typical 4K screen, but with a super high aspect ratio of 9: 21. By the standards of most monitors, there is a lot of pixels left.

UltraSharp 40 Curved WUHD has a full suite of ports, including a Thunderbolt 3 port that can supply a compatible MacBook with up to 90 watts of power. Other ports include a pair of HDMI 2.0 ports, DisplayPort 1.4, four USB Type-A ports with data speeds of up to 10Gbps, an Ethernet port, a 3.5mm jack, and a USB Type B port for upload. to me Mac rumors.

The refresh rate is only 60Hz, which is slightly lower compared to gaming monitors, which means that it is likely more suitable for productivity tasks (many graphics cards will not be able to run games at this resolution at more than 60 frames per second).

Dell is not the first company to announce a monitor with this resolution; LG presented 34 inch screen With it in 2017. But the new Dell screen is bigger and curved, which makes it boast of its „first in the world“ status. The UltraSharp 40 Curved WUHD Monitor goes on sale January 28, with prices starting at $ 2,099.99.
