Dell has announced a number of new UltraSharp monitors to add to its already impressive lineup. A particular stand out product from those detailed at the Adobe MAX conference is the new Dell UltraSharp 49 Curved Monitor U4919DW. The firm describes this monitor as "revolutionary" thanks to it being the "world's first 49-inch dual QHD monitor". As such it delivers an ultra-wide 32:9 aspect ratio of 5120 x 1440 resolution, and is equivalent to a seamless 2x 27-inch QHD monitor setup.
"This new monitor offers an immersive panoramic experience without compromising design or functionality," said Kirk Schell, SVP of Dell Displays & Engineering. Schell reckons that the new dual-QHD display will be popular among financial traders, bankers, creatives and engineers thanks to it enabling seamless multi-screen productivity.
