Dell announced its new UltraSharp 32 Ultra HD 8K computer monitor, the world's first 32-inch 8K computer display.
The monitor displays over a billion colors, with 33.2 million pixels of resolution, and has 280 ppi pixel density, which puts it ahead of even the 5K iMac's Retina display.
All those pixels don't come cheap, unfortunately. The Dell monitor will set you back a cool $5,000 USD when it releases in the second quarter of this year.

If that seems like a little too much to spend, the monitor probably isn't for you. In fact, Dell says the level of detail on an 8K monitor is largely for "commercial fields where in-depth image zooming is critical," citing high-end photography, medical applications, and oil and gas discovery.
Dell also announced a slew of new HDR monitors ranging in size from 24 to 27-inches, but none of them have nearly as many Ks as its utterly absurd 8K display.
It seems like only yesterday the HDMI 2.1 specification was announced with 8K support, but that's because it was yesterday. As far as content that takes advantage of all those pixels, there isn't a whole lot right now, but this 8K monitor isn't designed with gamers or Netflix in mind.
