Dell U4025QW - 40" 5120x2160 120Hz

Don't think this has been mentioned yet, apologies if I've missed it.

Obviously a productivity-focused screen and there's no mention of VRR so I presume it's just fixed 120Hz refresh but gives me hope for more gaming-focused monitors using the same panel with VRR, maybe from Dell themselves under the Alienware brand?

EDIT: As reported by the Verge, the spec sheet does make a passing reference to "VRR over HDMI 2.1" but nothing more than that.

"The 40″ U4025QW will be priced starting at $2,399.99 (US)"
So that'll be £2,400. No thanks!

Not even mini-led and HDR 1000? That's Apple level rip off.

And not oled at that price?

 

[JediFragger]

These aren't targeting the poor, they know businesses will pay.

 

[kitkat9933]

On a serious note just an update to the U4021QW.so can’t see it being too much more..

 

[Grim5]

Make it OLED and 34inch and 240hz

 

[Squid Vicious]

The panel size is perfect for me, I'm productivity first with gaming secondary and the additional resolution is just what I've been waiting for to warrant upgrade from an AW3418 whilst maintaining a decent refresh.

Though I am very interested to see what else is produced using this panel.

Am in EXACTLY the same position (even using an AW3418DW).

I don't want a ****** OLED monitor! It's totally unsuiited for 10+ hours per day of desktop/productivity work, a lot of which will be in the same applications with the same static elements.

 

[Yaayuh!]

GIVE ME AN OLED VERSION OF THE AW38!

You can't even get the actual AW38 any more.

UW OLEDs seem to be topping out at 3440x1440 for the time being.

 

[JediFragger]

GIVE ME AN OLED VERSION OF THE AW38!

AND GET ME THANOSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!

 

[Slogan]

Like the look of this but it looks like the price is going to make it unrealistic.

Shame they don't do the 38" 1600p monitor anymore.

This is my issue.

Yeah this particular example looks a bit over-priced and under-specced but it's at least promising that we might get some more 5120x2160 high refresh options down the road.

On the "OLED issue", to clarify, I'm not an anti-OLED zealot, I have a 77" OLED TV and love it to death, they're just not suited to my PC usage patterns.

 

[Orangeade]

This will be an instant buy for me. Just the monitor I have been waiting for!

I think IPS black adds more cost but I could be talking rubbish just triggered something in my brain.

"The 40″ U4025QW will be priced starting at $2,399.99 (US)"

Yeah, was tempted by this initially, as the idea of a 5k 40" ultrawide sounds like the ultimate productivity solution, but if the price is genuinely over £2000 they can keep it!

Dell list prices usually mean nothing as they often discount heavily. I'd expect something more around the £1500 mark.

True, but even that’s probably more than I’d be comfortable paying for a monitor.
