BenQ will release the first 32" 4k2k monitor for designers. The BL3201PT offers a larger 32" screen size, paired with an ultra HD 3840 x 2160 resolution from its AU Optronics AHVA panel (referred to by BenQ as IPS, since it's an IPS-type technology, not to be confused with AMVA).

The screen is flicker free and has a Low Blue Light mode and ambient light sensor as well for a range of "EyeCare" extras. Spec wise the screen offers a 4ms G2G response time, 1000:1 contrast ratio, 350 cd/m2 brightness and 178/178 viewing angles. It has a 1.07b colour depth and sRGB gamut from the W-LED backlight. The BL3201PT offers DL-DVI, 2x HDMI, DisplayPort and Mini DisplayPort connections. There are 2x 5W stereo speakers and a headphone port as well. The screen also comes with the OSD controller extra like we saw on the BL3200PT model. No word on release date or price yet.

The BL3201PT, world’s first 32" 4K2K ultra-high-definition (UHD) resolution monitor with built-in 100% sRGB, IPS technology and exclusive CAD/CAM, animation and low blue light modes for designers to improve design efficiency. Via TFT Central.

Unless you game for a living the IPS Response Time is Bull

4ms is not bad for IPS panel.

I work quite a bit in PS and my Dell Ultrasharp IPS has some of the best color reproduction I've seen on any monitor I've used for photo editing. Response times are slower, and the trade-off for using IPS for now. I'm interested in knowing which brands and models of IPS you've used, b/c any of them worth anything provide richer color depth, reproduction, vibrancy, and integrity compared to any LED/LCD.
