CES 2021: Dell Aims at Graphic Designers With UltraSharp 40 Curved WUHD Monitor
We check out this 2021 CES innovation award winner, a subtly curved 40-inch 5K2K monitor with ports galore aimed at graphic designers.
If there’s one thing everyone learns quickly while working from home ? especially anyone limited to the screen real estate of a laptop ? is there’s never such thing as too much workspace. This year’s CES delivered more than a few display solutions aimed at design professionals looking for breathing room, most notably with Dell’s announcement of their expansive 5K2K UltraSharp 40 Curved WUHD Monitor delivering 5,120 x 2,160 pixels of resolution.
Dell calls this the world’s first 40-inch ultrawide curved monitor, offering 33% more pixels when compared to a 16:9 32? 4K monitor. The design is kept simple, with a plastic case finished with a simulated brushed metal finish. In real world use, the UltraSharp 40 Curved WUHD’s output delivers almost too much of a good thing. In our testing using both a Windows-powered Surface Pro X and the new M1-powered Apple MacBook Air, we found ourselves having to tail back the resolution to half using the Surface Pro X (no fault of the display itself; output was hampered by the device’s underpowered graphics output) or down to 4608 x 1944 scaled resolution in macOS to make the OS usable for everyday tasks while keeping a multitude of application and browser windows concurrently open. But even at a scaled resolution, the opportunity to work across one large displ...
