- Dell UltraSharp 52 supports screen splitting into up to four desktops
- Each virtual desktop measures 1536 x 2560 when divided into four sections
- The panel uses IPS Black technology and supports variable refresh rates of 120Hz
At CES 2026, Dell unveiled the 52-inch UltraSharp Thunderbolt Hub monitor (U5226KW), measuring 48.16 inches wide with a panel retailing at 6144 x 2560 resolution.
According to the company, the screen can be split into four separate virtual desktops, allowing for separate content spaces on the same screen.
The sheer size of the monitor means users may need to move their head and neck frequently to comfortably view the entire screen.
Pixel density lower than 6K standard
Despite its advertised 6K resolution, the horizontal and vertical pixel count doesn’t fully meet a standard 6K format, meaning it doesn’t offer the exact pixel density of a true 6K display.
Its listed pixel density is 129 pixels per inch, roughly comparable to that of a 32-inch 4K monitor.
When divided into four virtual desktops, each section measures 1536 x 2560, and when divided into three, each measures 2048 x 2560.
The monitor uses an IPS Black panel supporting variable refresh rates and a 120Hz refresh specification.
It supports wide viewing angles of 178 degrees horizontally and vertically and features a curvature of 4200R.
Native contrast is rated at 2000:1 and peak brightness is specified at 400 cd/m².
For color coverage, it supports 99% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and 100% of the sRGB and BT.709 gamuts, with calibration accuracy rated at E < 1.5.
Anti-glare and low-reflection treatments are applied to the screen surface, and low-blue light and flicker-free technologies are included.
The professional instructor also has certifications including TCO Certified 10.0, EPEAT Gold, and Energy Star compliance.
Connectivity options include two HDMI 2.1 ports capable of 6144 x 2560 resolution at 120Hz, two DisplayPort 1.4 ports, and a Thunderbolt 4 upstream connection with 40Gbps throughput.
Additionally, there are three upstream USB-C ports and four downstream USB-A ports, as well as two downstream USB-C ports offering up to 27W of power.
A 2.5GbE RJ45 Ethernet port and an integrated USB hub and KVM switch are also included.
Its stand allows for height, tilt, tilt, and swivel adjustments, and the panel is VESA mounting compatible.
The operating power consumption of this large monitor is 63.6W, with a maximum consumption of 430W.
It is compatible with Windows, Linux, Mac and ThinOS and includes a three-year limited service with advanced exchange and premium panel replacement.
