CES 2024 is almost here, and with it comes an influx of new monitors. Dell is unveiling its UltraSharp 40 Curved Thunderbolt Hub Monitor, which it claims is the “first 40-inch 5K monitor certified for five-star eye comfort.” The certification is based on a new standard established by TUV Rheinland to reduce eye fatigue. Dell has upgraded its UltraSharp monitors to meet this certification by doubling the refresh rate to 120Hz, incorporating an ambient light sensor, and reducing blue light exposure with advanced LED backlight technology. Despite these changes, Dell insists the monitor’s performance remains top-notch, with a 99 percent DCI-P3 / Display P3 color space and VESA DisplayHDR 600 certification.
Connectivity is also a focus for the UltraSharp 40 Curved Thunderbolt Hub Monitor, with Thunderbolt 4 support, Ethernet connection, HDMI 2.1, and DisplayPort 2.1 ports. The monitor will be available globally starting on February 27 at a starting price of $2,400 in the US and $3,290 CAD in Canada.
For those who prefer a smaller size, Dell’s 34-inch UltraSharp 34 Curved Thunderbolt Hub Monitor offers similar features and TUV Rheinland five-star eye comfort certification. The 34-inch model will be available for $1,020 in the US and $1,400 CAD in Canada.
CES 2024 is set to take place from January 6-12 in Las Vegas, where more news on these monitors are expected.
