LG has revealed a new UltraFine monitor at CES, and it features a thin display mounted on an equally slim base. It’s also the first 6K monitor to support Thunderbolt 5, as spotted earlier by MacRumors.
That means it should have a data throughput of up to 80Gbps (or up to 120Gbps if it supports Intel’s Bandwidth Boost mode). It also has a “Nano IPS Black” panel that LG says “delivers exceptional color accuracy and a high contrast,” with 99.5 percent Adobe RGB and 98 percent DCI-P3 color gamut coverage.
Many details about the display are still missing, as there’s no word on its refresh rate or availability. The 32-inch 6K Dell UltraSharp monitor, which also uses an IPS Black display from LG, might give us an idea about price, as it costs $2,479.99. The Verge reached out to LG with a request for more information but didn’t immediately hear back.
More devices have added support for Thunderbolt 5 in recent months, with the first Thunderbolt 5 cables and docks arriving last year. Apple’s newest MacBook Pro models and the Mac Mini support Thunderbolt 5 as well.
