LG's flagship UltraFine evo 6K monitor has arrived in the UAE, bringing professional-grade display technology to local creators. According to LG Electronics' announcement, the 32-inch monitor combines 6K resolution with Thunderbolt 5 connectivity and an ergonomic design, priced at AED 7,299 in the UAE
What makes the UltraFine evo different
The LG 32U990A S delivers 6K resolution (6144×3456) at 224 pixels per inch — significantly sharper than standard 4K displays. The Nano IPS panel provides excellent blacks and high contrast ratios that LCD monitors simply can't match.
DisplayHDR 600 certification ensures colour accuracy crucial for video editing and photo work. LG has positioned this as their answer to Apple's Studio Display, targeting the same creative professional market that's grown substantially in the UAE.
Thunderbolt 5 and connectivity
The UltraFine evo includes Thunderbolt 5 — the latest connectivity standard that handles power, data, and video through a single cable. This matters particularly for Mac users, as it eliminates the cable mess that plagues most professional setups.
In practice, you can connect a MacBook Pro, charge it, and drive the 6K display simultaneously. The bandwidth also supports daisy-chaining additional displays, though at 6K resolution, you're unlikely to need more screen real estate.
Swing Smart ergonomics explained
LG's Swing Smart system provides tilt, swivel, height, and pivot adjustments — essential for long editing sessions. The pivot function is particularly useful for portrait-oriented work, such as social media content creation.
The ergonomics address a real problem: most premium displays sacrifice adjustability for aesthetics. The UltraFine evo attempts to solve both, though we'll need hands-on time to verify how smooth these adjustments feel in daily use.
Target audience and UAE relevance
This monitor clearly targets UAE's expanding creative sector — photographers, video editors, motion graphics designers, and content creators working for the region's media companies or as freelancers.
The 6K resolution particularly benefits those working with high-resolution cameras or creating content for multiple platforms. UAE's hybrid work culture also makes the ergonomic features more relevant, as professionals often work from both office and home setups.
LG UltraFine evo pricing and availability in UAE
The official product page is available at lg.com/ae with specific retailers and availability channels highlighted on that page. For context, Apple's Studio Display costs around Dhs 6,000 in UAE, suggesting the UltraFine evo will command a significant premium for its 6K technology.
