Our take on the Dell UltraSharp 40 Curved Thunderbolt Hub Monitor (U4025QW)

The Dell UltraSharp U4025QW is a 40-inch curved IPS monitor with a 5120x2160 5K panel, a 120Hz refresh rate and 600 cd/m² brightness. It doubles as a Thunderbolt hub, so one cable carries video, data and power to a laptop while USB-C, HDMI and DisplayPort handle other devices. Built-in speakers and a 5ms response time round it out. It suits people who want one large screen for work, creative apps and light gaming, and it competes with other 5K2K ultrawides on resolution, refresh rate and hub features rather than on price.

Questions and answers

Is the U4025QW good for gaming?

It handles casual and light gaming with 120Hz and a 5ms response time, but fast competitive play is better served by a lower-resolution, faster panel.

Does it work with a Mac?

Yes. The Thunderbolt hub carries video, data and power over one cable, which suits Mac laptops with Thunderbolt.

What is the resolution?

It is 5120x2160, a 5K ultrawide format, on a 40-inch curved IPS panel.

Does it have built-in speakers?

Yes, it has built-in speakers, so a separate set is optional for basic use.

What inputs does it have?

It offers HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C, with Thunderbolt hub functionality for connecting devices.

Is it worth it over a 4K monitor?

The extra width and 5K sharpness help multitasking and detailed work, while a 4K monitor is simpler and easier to drive.
