Dell Ultrasharp U3224KB: A pixel-packed rival to Apple's Pro Display

Want a 6K monitor? If so, Apple's Pro Display XDR is the only game in town and its Mac-centric design makes it unappealing to those using Windows. Dell has finally delivered an alternative, the Ultrasharp U3224KB, which packs 6K resolution as well as a webcam, microphone, soundbar, and USB-C hub. The monitor’s sharpness is spectacular but comes at a high price.

SPECS

The standout specification is obviously the monitor’s 6144×3456 panel. This is a tad higher than Apple’s Pro Display XDR, which has a resolution of 6016×3384. Dell also opts for an IPS Black panel, a new type of IPS display panel that delivers a better contrast ratio than its predecessors.

Display size: 32-inch 16:9 widescreen

Native resolution: 6144×3456

Panel type: IPS Black LCD

Refresh rate: 60Hz

Adaptive-Sync: None

HDR: VESA DisplayHDR 600

Ports: 1× HDMI 2.1, 1x MiniDisplayPort, 1× Thunderbolt 4/USB-C with 140 watts Power Delivery and DisplayPort Alternate Mode, 2.5Gb ethernet, 1× Thunderbolt 4/USB-C, 1× USB-C with 10 watts Power Delivery, 1× USB-A

VESA mount: Yes

Webcam: 4K HDR

Microphone: Included

Speakers: Included

Price: $3,199.99

The Dell Ultrasharp U3224KB retails at $3,199.99. That’s an extremely high price, though certainly not unheard of—and with no other 6K option on the market aside from Apple’s $5,000 Pro Display XDR, Dell likely feels free to charge what it wants.
