Dell announced the UltraSharp 52 Thunderbolt Hub Monitor at CES 2026, billing it as the "world's first 52-inch 6K display."
At 52 inches, the ultra-wide curved monitor features a 21:9 aspect ratio with 6,144 x 2,560 resolution at 129 pixels per inch and supports refresh rates up to 120Hz.
The display uses IPS Black panel technology for deeper blacks and improved contrast compared to standard IPS panels, with brightness listed as 400 cd/m. Dell says it emits up to 60% less blue light than competing monitors while maintaining professional-grade color accuracy, and it includes an ambient light sensor for eye comfort during extended use.
The display's connectivity support is pretty eye-watering, since it basically doubles as a Thunderbolt dock around the back. It includes one Thunderbolt 4 port delivering up to 140W power delivery, two HDMI 2.1 ports, two DisplayPort 1.4 ports, three USB-C upstream ports, and several downstream USB-C and USB-A ports. If that wasn't enough, a 2.5Gbps Ethernet port rounds out the package.
The monitor supports connecting up to four PCs simultaneously through its Picture-by-Picture mode with screen partitioning, while built-in KVM functionality allows users to control multiple connected machines with a single keyboard and mouse.
Dell is touting the display as a multi-monitor replacement for financial traders, data scientists, engineers, and executives who need maximum screen real estate, so naturally it doesn't come cheap: The UltraSharp 52 Thunderbolt Hub Monitor is available now from the Dell website for $2,899 with a stand or $2,799 without.

Apple is planning to launch new MacBook Pro models as soon as early March, but if you can, this is one generation you should skip because there's something much better in the works.
We're waiting on 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, with few changes other than the processor upgrade. There won't be any tweaks to the design or the display, but later this...

It has been a slow start to 2026 for Apple product launches, with only a new AirTag and a special Apple Watch band released so far. We are still waiting for MacBook Pro models with M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, the iPhone 17e, a lower-cost MacBook with an iPhone chip, long-rumored updates to the Apple TV and HomePod mini, and much more.
Apple is expected to release/update the following products...
Why not 8K? 52" can be a viable alternative to two 32", but a resolution of 6K is bit too low. If we require it to have the same pixel density as Apple's 27" 5K, then 52" should have almost 10K.
It's 2026. You should not be buying any display that isn't OLED. This is garbage.
This is an office/productivity display, not a gaming display. If I used an OLED display on my work PC, I'd have major, major burn-in issues since my most used apps sit in one place on-screen with fixed menu/control bars and such for hours and hours each day.
I can clearly see that you don't understand tech much if you are requesting OLED for Monitors.
OLED is flawed for such use. No matter how much tweaking they do they will still get burn ins. Mini LED is the king until MicroLED comes to affordability

Nice price and nice monitor. I personally have no interest in a monitor this big, but I've been very happy with my 27" Dell U2725QE Thunderbolt monitor. It has the same features minus the second HDMI port, and it's 4k.
I've had good luck with Dell monitors. Used a 2005FPW for just shy of 20 years, so two monitors in 21 years isn't bad. I would still be using it, but DVI to a thunderbolt dock was becoming difficult.
