Mini-LED panels may be the future of television, computer monitors, smartphone and tablet displays, or even all of those.

But that future isn’t here just yet. Not even close, in fact, as illustrated by the newly unveiled UltraSharp 32 HDR PremierColor professional monitor, Dell’s first such product to offer resolutions higher than the standard 1080p one.

Not that much higher, mind you, as the device caps out at 1400p, also known as 2K or 1440p resolution. Don’t let the relatively mundane-sounding resolution cap fool you into thinking this is something to pick up on your way from buying groceries after realizing you forgot it’s Christmas Eve and your estranged kids are coming over tomorrow.

First of all, situations like these are why they’re estrange in the first place, and secondly, the only way you can afford this thing is if your entire extended family chips in.

As the Dell UltraSharp 32 is priced at $4999, which isn’t that crazy for a professional color-grading monitor, but it’s pretty unusual to see such a device that doesn’t even do 4K, at least in this day and age. Of course, the tech will improve rapidly, as tech tends to do, so this won’t be true for much longer.

Personal computer giant Dell today presented the sequels to perhaps its most popoular and definitely most critically acclaimed series of consumer hardware. That would be the XPS family of bezel-less Windows ultrabooks which has been successfully pairing top hardware with a graceful full-screen aesthetic for over half a decade, at this point.

The latest entries to the range, the XPS 15 and XPS 17, are largely more of the same from the standpoint of technology, with their most notable improvement coming in the form of quite a few major battery tech innovations. To be more exact, even the larger, 17-inch variant of Dell’s flagship ultrabook promises up to 19 hours of battery life in practical scenarios, which is pretty much unheard of in the history of this form factor, even if we include Apple’s macOS machines, including the latest generation running its own silicon that’s literally optimized to a transistor. So, be able to even come close to the 19-hour mark with a third-party OS and a bunch of external hardware is a historic achievement in every sense of that word.

Other than that, expect the new Dell XPS 15 and XPS 17 to be offered along with the very best of what the PC component manufacturers can currently offer. Meaning you should also be prepared to break the bank for one of these incredibly autonomous babies as the smaller notebook has just been confirmed to start at $1,299 in the U.S. The XPS 17, on the other hand, will have an introductory price of $1,499, Dell said in a prepared statement. The new series still hasn’t been scheduled for a specific release date but American consumers can rest assured that they’ll be able to buy every possible variation of these flagship ultrabooks by early summer.
