Last month Dell launched a pair of UltraSharp monitors boasting 4K resolution, and dangled a sweet carrot in front of our early adopting paws: a forthcoming 28-inch Ultra HD monitor that would retail for less than $1000. Today at CES 2014 Dell revealed it, along with an aggressive price tag: $699.

The P2815Q packs an IPS LED display will have a full 3840 x 2160 4K resolution. It launches globally on January 23. Dell hasn’t yet discussed things like refresh rate or range of inputs (I’m sure DisplayPort is a given), but they do promise the same “screen performance” as the new UltraSharp 32 and UltraSharp 24 Ultra HD monitors. That’s certainly encouraging since their UltraSharp line is normally a cut above when it comes to professional displays.

UPDATE: I now have confirmation of the P2815Q’s full specs, and have listed them below. Unfortunately, it tops out at 30Hz 3840 x 2160 and 60Hz for 1920 x 1080. This should prove a deal breaker for gamers, but the monitor still has a solid feature set for the asking price.

Panel tech: Anti-glare TN (not IPS which was previously rumored)
Connections: DisplayPort (v 1.21)/Mini-DisplayPort, HDMI 1.4 (MHL 2.0), DispayPort out (MST), 1 USB upstream, 4 x USB 3.02 downstream (including 1 USB charging port with BC1.2 compliance devices on back)
Color Depth: 1.073 billion colors
Viewing angle: 170 degrees
Response time: 5ms
Brightness: 300 cd/m2
Power Consumption: 75W

 
Now that is an attractive price. Hopefully we can see 4k monitors in the 24" range coming soon as well. 28" is too big for my desk sadly The model# for the Dell 28" is P2815Q.

 

*Update edit, now that it's revealed to only be 30Hz at 4k and it's a TN panel, then it's a no buy from me.

4K is coming!

 

[DoubleY]

28" is a little too big for me. 4K or not.

[Raboo]

But its TN

[lachyman]

Looks cool, now we need the GPU horsepower for this

[Excon]

I want......

[Fetzie]

The only trouble is needing to spend twice that amount on graphics cards to be able to play at 4k

[M-ursu]

Soon as we have IPS panel with G-sync at that price i will buy it.

[Excon]

But its TN

No where does it say that.

[Guest GRRigger]

and its cheaper than gsync 120hz 1440p lololololol

[Raboo]

Looks cool, now we need the GPU horsepower for this

And VRAM

[EChondo]

But its TN

Then buy the UP2414Q it should be available shortly and will feature an IPS panel with 99% AdobeRGB and 100% sRGB coverage and 178/178 degree viewing angles, an 8 ms GTG response time, a contrast ratio of 1,000:1 (dynamic contrast ratio is 2,000,000:1), a media card reader, a 4-port USB 3.0 hub, HDMI, DisplayPort and Mini DisplayPort inputs, and a stand enabling tilt, swivel, pivot and height adjustment. Also it costs $1,399.

A reason for me to like Dell again

[falsedell]

This could be the perfect monitor to pair with my 6 Dell P2414H's that I have in portrait orientation. I'll have to check the specs when they are released on Dell's website.

[MatheusSanzo]

Ok... reasonably price.

[wpirobotbuilder]

But its TN

But it won't be a shitty TN panel. It's an UltraSharp, Dell won't compromise that branding by releasing something that displays like crap.

 

Go, Dell, go!

 

Edit: Not an UltraSharp, just can't read correctly.

 

Still probably won't be a terrible panel.

[RatedBlam]

That's about the same price as the Asus Pro art monitor that Linus so liked

[Nineshadow]

Only 700. WOOOT!

I'm waiting till next year for a monitor upgrade when,I hope, there will be 4k monitors at around $500.

Go, Dell, go!

 

Based on the model number P2815Q. The P stands for Professional. So it won't be an UltraSharp exactly. But I did do some quick research and it looks like all of the P Series monitors from Dell have an IPS panel. If the 4K monitor has a TN panel I'll be amazed.

Its not a UltraSharp monitor

[wpirobotbuilder]

Its not a UltraSharp monitor

Yeah, that was my bad. Though I can't imagine it'll be among the terrible TN panels, it certainly won't be a beauty like IPS is.

I believe they are trying to get rid of the US name. Most new monitors coming from Dell are using the P name instead. I'm surprised the 24" 4k monitor is even using the US branding.

Its Should be a nice TN, We will see when reviews come out for it.

Not really. The top models (also all the new ones) are U models. The mid-Range models are the P models, all more or less budget friendly.

A lot of P models had TN panels, but with the latest update many of them switched over to IPs panels.
