Philips Monitors launches the 34B2U5900C, a curved 34-inch (86.4 cm) Philips Business Monitor with Dual Mode. Users can switch easily between WUHD 5120 x 2160 at 120 Hz and WFHD 2560 x 1080 at 240 Hz using the dedicated OSD control button. This monitor's 34-inch curved VA display has wide viewing angles of 178 degrees, and is VESA DisplayHDR 400 certified. With USB-C docking, up to 140 W Power Delivery, and a wide set of productivity features, it is designed for business users who need clarity, speed, and connectivity in one workspace. This award-winning monitor brings brilliant color, connectivity, and a bundle of other features that level up any workspace.

Flexibility between visual clarity and high-speed performance
Professionals with dynamic workflows need a monitor that can adapt to different tasks. The Philips 34B2U5900C features Dual Mode, allowing users to switch between two performance settings. WUHD (5120 x 2160) at 120 Hz supports detailed visual work, large spreadsheets, multitasking, and content review. WFHD (2560 x 1080) at 240 Hz supports faster motion and more responsive interaction for scenarios such as live dashboards, monitoring, training simulations, and occasional gaming.

Just ahead of CES, LG announced a range of new monitors and now, the biggest one of the new models, the UltraGear EVO 52G930B is available for pre-order. Back then, LG didn't reveal much in terms of details about its 52-inch giant, but the company did reveal the 5120 x 2160 pixel resolution, the 240 Hz refresh rate and the 1000R curvature. Now we know that the 52G930B will also support DisplayHDR 600 and 95% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut. The panel is likely to cause some disappointment, as it's a VA panel with a contrast ratio of 4000:1 and a 1 ms grey to grey response time. Unfortunately LG doesn't provide any details with regards to what type of backlight is being used, but HDR600 doesn't require FALD. The 52G930B also has AMD FreeSync Premium support and a range of built in gaming features.

Somewhat disappointingly, the LG 52G930B only sports a single DisplayPort 2.1 input, but the two HDMI 2.1 ports also support the full resolution and refresh rate on offer here. The USB Type-C port seems to still be limited to DP 1.4 with DSC and possibly lower chroma subsampling, as even though it can support the full resolution, it tops out at 200 Hz. The monitor also has a pair of USB 3.0 Type-A ports and a headphone jack that supports DTS Headphone:X. There's also a pair of built in stereo speakers and some RGB lights around the rear. As with many other of LG's more premium monitors, KVM support and Picture-in-Picture and Picture-by-Picture is supported. Finally the stand is height adjustable and the display can be tilted and swiveled. LG is asking for US$1999.99 and the monitor is said to start shipping around the 22nd of March.

LG announced the UltraGear EVO line of enthusiast-segment gaming PC monitors. The series includes three models, including two ultra-wides, and a conventional aspect-ratio monitor. Leading the pack is the UltraGear EVO 52G930B, a gargantuan 52-inch curved desktop monitor with 1000R curvature, 5120 x 2160 pixels resolution, 240 Hz refresh rate, and wide color gamut.

The UltraGear EVO AI 39GX950B is the star of the show. This monitor comes with in-built AI-accelerated upscaling that's native to the monitor (doesn't use any CPU or GPU resources). The display comes with 21:9 aspect-ratio, 1500R curvature, and a native resolution of 5120 x 2160 pixels at 165 Hz or 2560 x 1080 at 330 Hz, along with DisplayHDR True Black 500. The in-built AI upscaler also handles screen optimization, spatial audio, display settings, game genre-specific optimization, among a ton of other features. The display uses LG's new primary RGB tandem OLED panel technology. If you want all these features, but in a more traditional form-factor, there's the UltraGear EVO AI 27GM950B.

Lenovo has a new ThinkVision monitor coming and the P40WD-40 as it's called, sports not only a 5120 x 2160 resolution, but also expected to have a 120 Hz refresh rate, something most high-resolution office monitors tend to lack. It's said to feature a 40-inch ECO-IPS panel with an 8 ms refresh rate and a 300 cd/m² brightness rating. It obviously has a 21:9 aspect ratio, but it also supports 98 percent of the DCI-P3 colour space, making it suitable for colour correct work as well.

Other known features includes Thunderbolt 4 support and Lenovo has integrated its eKVM solution which makes it a full Thunderbolt 4 docking station. It's not clear exactly which ports will be on offer, but the P40w which is the model it will supersede, sports two Thunderbolt ports, DP and HDMI, Ethernet and several USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports. What we do know is that it will offer 100 Watt charging, which means most office laptops can be connected to it by a single cable for power, data and display signal. Insight UK has it listed for £1,417 and change, including 20 percent VAT.

LG Display, the world's leading innovator of display technologies, announced today that it has officially begun mass production of a 45-inch Gaming OLED monitor panel with ultra-high 5K2K resolution. By producing the world's highest-resolution Gaming OLED panel, the company is seeking to seize the growth potential of the high-end gaming display market.

This product not only features key gaming monitor specifications such as top-tier resolution, refresh rate, and response time, but it also delivers perfect black levels in any environment, providing the ultimate gaming experience.

Raising the bar and becoming a CES 2024 Innovation Award Honoree, Dell Technologies is introducing the world's first 40-inch 5K monitor certified for five-star eye comfort, the Dell UltraSharp 40 Curved Thunderbolt Hub Monitor (U4025QW). Marking nine years of being an industry leader in PC monitors, Dell continues to push the boundaries of display innovation, bridging the gap for those who demand ultimate performance with the best technology and design.

Whether you're a content creator, data scientist or engineer, or you just need a monitor to keep you in your flow—a device with the best value in precision and efficiency is critical to keeping you productive in any work environment. Known for outstanding visuals, the U4025QW is a must-have for professionals who require clarity and remarkable color. This ultrawide curved VESA DisplayHDR 600 certified monitor comes with IPS Black Panel technology for greater color contrast and intricate detail in 5K resolution (5120x2160).

On June, 15th—the Philips 40B1U6903CH business monitor hit the market. It is equipped with a large, 39.7-inch screen (100 cm diag.), 5K2K (5120 x 2160) resolution, and a speedy, multifunctional Thunderbolt 4 docking solution.

A New Way of Working
The Thunderbolt 4 docking solution is flexible and versatile; allowing data to transfer at a speed of 40 Gbps with a bidirectional bandwidth and is also compatible with previous Thunderbolt cable connections, USB, and DisplayPort. With the Philips 40B1U6903CH being equipped with this technology, it is an ideal solution for professionals looking for fast data transfer, fast (1 Gbit/s) Ethernet connection, and 90 W power delivery capability to connected devices.

For those waiting for a 5K2K or 5120 x 2160 gaming monitor, it seems like you're going to have to wait a while longer yet, as LG's latest addition in the ultrawide 4K category is targeting professional users. The 39.7-inch Nano IPS based display tops out at a brightness of 300 cd/m² and it has a typical IPS contrast ratio of 1000:1 and a response time of 5 ms grey to grey, with a colour gamut that meets 90 percent of the DCI-P3 standard. Rather interestingly, it has a maximum refresh rate of a rather unusual 72 Hz, rather than the somewhat more common 75 Hz and there's support for AMD FreeSync for those that still want to game on the monitor. The panel is curved, but LG doesn't mention the actual curvature, but a guess would be somewhere between 1800R to 1500R.

However, what makes this display stand out is that it features Thunderbolt 4 and it can be daisy chained with a second, identical display, although this drops the refresh rate down to 60 Hz on both panels. It delivers up to 96 Watts of power over the Thunderbolt port, which means it would power most notebooks that don't feature a discrete GPU. Other connectivity options include a single DisplayPort 1.4, two HDMI ports, which are limited to 3440 x 1440 resolution, a pair of USB 3.0 ports on the side as well as a headphone jack around the back. The display also has a pair of integrated 10 W speakers and sports a stand with height, tilt and swivel adjustments. The 40WP95CP-W is said to retail for around €1,339, but most retailers seem to list it for around €1,400 or more at the moment.
