Dell recently launched its UltraSharp 32 4K Video Conferencing Monitor. The display features a 4K screen and a built-in 4K webcam. It's also the "first monitor in its class with IPS Black panel technology," according to Dell. You can purchase the UltraSharp 32 4K Video Conferencing Monitor now for $1,600 through Dell's website.
The UltraSharp 32 4K Video Conferencing Monitor packs specs to compete with the best computer monitors with a high-end 4K webcam. That camera has a 4K HDR Sony STARVIS CMOS sensor and can automatically adjust focus, lighting, and more.
In our Dell UltraSharp Webcam review, our executive editor Daniel Rubino praised the device for its design, quality, and software. That's essentially the same camera that's inside the UltraSharp 32 4K Video Conferencing Monitor. It's worth noting that Rubino did place Dell's webcam behind the Logitech BRIO 4K in several areas.
The IPS Black panel tech in the UltraSharp 32 4K Video Conferencing Monitor should deliver better contrast and visuals compared to standard IPS displays.

While we'll have to take a closer look to judge the device for ourselves, the Dell UltraSharp 32 4K Video Conferencing Monitor appears to be an excellent device for people working from home or within an office.
If you're already happy with your webcam, it's worth checking out the Dell UltraSharp 32 4K USB-C Hub, which is essentially the same monitor but without a built-in camera. It happens to be on sale at the moment for less than $1,000.
