Dell has unveiled two industry-first UltraSharp monitors at CES 2026, targeting professionals who demand extreme productivity, absolute colour accuracy, and long-term visual comfort. The new lineup includes a massive 52-inch curved 6K ultrawide monitor built for power users, and a 32-inch 4K QD-OLED display engineered specifically for creative professionals.

Both monitors showcase Dell’s latest display innovations, class-leading eye comfort technology, and a strong commitment to sustainable design—reinforcing why the UltraSharp range continues to be a benchmark for professional displays.

A Decade of Display Leadership, Expanded Further

For more than ten years, Dell Technologies has pushed the boundaries of professional monitor design. The UltraSharp brand has become synonymous with premium build quality, reliable colour accuracy, and thoughtful productivity features.

At CES 2026, Dell expands that legacy with two flagship additions:

• Dell UltraSharp 52 Thunderbolt Hub Monitor

• Dell UltraSharp 32 4K QD-OLED Monitor

Both models introduce world-first technologies aimed at very different—but equally demanding—professional audiences.

Dell UltraSharp 52 Thunderbolt Hub Monitor: One Screen to Replace Them All

The Dell UltraSharp 52 Thunderbolt Hub Monitor (U5226KW) is the world’s first 52-inch ultrawide curved 6K monitor featuring IPS Black panel technology. It is designed for professionals who juggle vast amounts of information across multiple applications, including financial traders, data scientists, engineers, analysts, and executives.

Instead of managing complex multi-monitor setups, this single display delivers a seamless, ultra-wide workspace that reduces clutter while significantly increasing usable screen real estate.

Productivity Without Compromise

With a 6K resolution spread across a 52-inch curved panel, the monitor offers:

• 61,000 more pixels than a setup using two 27-inch QHD monitors plus one 43-inch 4K display

• 25% higher pixel density, resulting in sharper text and more detailed visuals

• A smaller physical footprint, despite replacing multiple screens

The result is a cleaner desk, fewer cables, and a more focused workflow.

Visual Clarity and Eye Comfort at Scale

The UltraSharp 52 delivers exceptional image quality with:

• 6K resolution at 129 PPI

• 120Hz refresh rate for smoother motion

• IPS Black technology for deeper blacks and improved contrast

Eye comfort is a major focus. This monitor is the first in the world to achieve the highest tier of TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light certification, emitting up to 60% less blue light than competing displays—without sacrificing color accuracy. An integrated ambient light sensor dynamically adjusts brightness based on your surroundings, helping to reduce eye strain during long workdays.

Advanced Multitasking and Connectivity

Designed for modern, multi-system workflows, the UltraSharp 52 supports:

• Up to four connected PCs simultaneously

• A new internal multi-stream transport (MST) system that treats each screen partition as a separate monitor

• Picture-by-Picture (PBP) modes for advanced multitasking

• A built-in KVM switch allows control of all connected systems with a single keyboard and mouse

Connectivity is handled through a single Thunderbolt 4 cable, compatible with both Windows and macOS, delivering up to 140W of power to charge connected laptops. Pop-out quick-access ports include:

• Two 27W USB-C

• One 10W USB-A

This makes it easy to connect peripherals without reaching around the back of the display.

Dell UltraSharp 32 4K QD-OLED: Precision for Creative Professionals

While the 52-inch model focuses on productivity at scale, the Dell UltraSharp 32 4K QD-OLED Monitor (U3226Q) is built for professionals who live and breathe colour accuracy.

A CES 2026 Innovation Award honoree, this monitor is the world’s first commercial DisplayHDR True Black 500 QD-OLED display with Anti-Glare Low-Reflectance (AGLR) coating—making it uniquely suited for creative studios and bright work environments.

True-to-Life Colour and Infinite Contrast

The 32-inch QD-OLED panel delivers:

• 4K UHD resolution

• An infinite contrast ratio of 1.5M:1

• DisplayHDR True Black 500 and Dolby Vision HDR support

Out of the box, the monitor achieves Delta E <1 colour accuracy and covers:

• 99% DCI-P3 and Display P3

• 94% Adobe RGB

• 80% BT.2020

• 100% sRGB and BT.709

This makes it ideal for film editing, colour grading, broadcast work, and product design, where colour precision is non-negotiable.

Built-In Calibration and Professional Colour Control

A standout feature is the integrated colourimeter, which stores calibration data directly on the monitor. This ensures consistent colour accuracy across different systems and allows IT teams to perform remote calibration without physical access.

Additional professional tools include:

• Programmable Direct Keys for quick access to colour modes

• 3D Look-Up Tables (LUTs) for advanced colour workflows

• Dell Colour Management Software and Dell Colour Management Console for centralised fleet management

Combined with the industry-first AGLR coating on a QD-OLED panel, reflections are dramatically reduced—solving one of the biggest drawbacks of OLED displays in bright environments.

Sustainability Built Into the Design

Dell continues to push sustainability forward with both monitors constructed using:

• Up to 90% post-consumer recycled plastics

• 100% recycled aluminum

• Up to 50% recycled steel

• At least 20% recycled glass

Packaging is made from 100% renewable and recyclable materials, reducing environmental impact without compromising premium build quality.

Final Thoughts

With these two UltraSharp launches, Dell isn’t just iterating—it’s redefining what professional monitors can be. The 52-inch 6K ultrawide is a genuine productivity powerhouse capable of replacing entire multi-monitor setups, while the 32-inch QD-OLED sets a new standard for colour-critical creative work.

Whether your priority is data-heavy multitasking or pixel-perfect colour accuracy, Dell’s latest UltraSharp displays make a compelling case for being among the most advanced professional monitors of 2026.
