Dell launches a monitor with more ports than three MacBook Air Laptops put together

Dell just unleashed this monitor wizardry, the Ultrasharp 27 Thunderbolt Hub Monitor, and it’s like your dream come true if you’re into tech. Picture a sleek 27-inch LED screen sitting on your desk, not just looking good but being the problem-solver with its built-in cable magic. And hold on to your hat – it’s not just a monitor, it’s a connectivity superhero, flaunting a whopping 15 ports and slots.

Now, let’s talk about this USB-C with Thunderbolt 4 support – it’s the rockstar of ports. It does video, data, and even throws out a cool 90W of power. Need fast internet? It’s got you covered with lightning-speed Ethernet. All those ports, though – HDMI, DisplayPort 1.4, two USB-C ports with Thunderbolt 4, two USB-C 3.2 Gen 2, and a generous four USB-A 3.2 Gen 2. Plus, there’s an Ethernet port, a headphone jack, a power connector port, a security lock slot, and even a stand lock. It’s like a tech feast compared to the new MacBook Air, which is kind of playing catch-up.

 

 

Sure, it might not scream 4K, topping out at 2,550 x 1,440 pixels. But hang on – it compensates with a buttery-smooth 120Hz refresh rate. Dell’s promising a bright display and a full-color spectrum – the tech lingo for ‘it looks darn good.’

Now, this isn’t just a pretty face. It’s about getting stuff done. You can hook up two PCs and juggle tasks like a pro with picture-by-picture, picture-in-picture, and a built-in keyboard, video, mouse switch. And because Dell cares about your eyes, they’ve thrown in cool features like an Ambient Light Sensor and ComfortView Plus to make sure your peepers stay happy.
