LG first announced its new 32-inch UltraFine monitor at CES 2025. The company still bills it as the “world’s first 6K monitor with Thunderbolt 5 connectivity†built right in. Ahead of the display launching in South Korea and Japan in September, followed by a US launch next month, LG has shared more specs and pricing details. It’s currently available for preorder through B&H’s online store for $1,999.99 with shipping expected to start on October 20th.
The UltraFine 32U990A features a 31.5-inch IPS panel with a native resolution of 6,144 x 3,456 and a maximum refresh rate of 60Hz. It supports 10-bit color covering 98 percent of the DCI-P3 and 99.5 percent of the Adobe RGB color spaces. It offers a 2,000:1 contrast ratio with 450 nits of brightness which helps explain why LG’s 6K display is nearly $3,000 cheaper than Apple’s similarly-styled but aging 6K Pro Display XDR which instead offers up to 1,600 nits of brightness.
Thunderbolt 5 support means LG’s display can move files around at speeds up to 120Gbps when connected to other T5 devices, but its port selection isn’t quite as extensive as what you’ll find on the many Thunderbolt 5 hubs now available. The UltraFine 32U990A features HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort, a pair of 96W T5 USB-C ports, a USB-C upstream port for connecting to your computer, and a pair of slower USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports.
