14 DAY TRIAL // Acer and ASUS have already announced their 2016 Windows 10 device lineup, and now Dell is doing the same, introducing several new laptops that will be on display next month at Computex.
Just as was the case of the other manufacturers, Dell built its devices to be fully compatible with Windows 10, Microsoft’s new operating system that’s on the market since July 2015. On the other hand, these Dell laptops won’t come with the Redstone update planned for July but will fully support it, so buyers can upgrade to this version free of charge when it becomes available.
Dell Inspiron 7000 2-in-1s
First and foremost, the new Inspiron 2-in-1 lineup will be available in three different versions, namely 13-, 15-, and 17-inch, all powered by Windows 10 and Intel processors up to i7. It’s important to note that this is the first 17-inch 2-in-1 device on the market, allowing several modes, including laptop, stand mode for streaming movies, and tablet mode for the typical activities that require a touch screen.
The device comes with an infrared camera for Windows Hello, a standard backlit camera, USB Type C that is compatible with power sources and DisplayPort monitors, and an SSD for various storage options.
The new lineup will go on sale on June 2 and will be available starting from $749 in the United States and Canada. It will be exclusively sold online at Dell.com at first, but it should then hit the shelves at retailers too after Computex.
Dell Inspiron 11 3000 2-in-1
The Dell Inspiron 11 3000 2-in-1 series, on the other hand, comes with an 11-inch screen that offers a resolution of 1366x768 pixels and two different modes, namely laptop and tablet.
It also packs Intel processors, but this time, the m3, and an SSD of several storage options. USB 3.0 is also offered, and so is a microSD card for expanding storage capabilities.
The device will be available starting June 2, with prices to begin at $249 in the United States.
Dell Inspiron 5000 2-in-1s
In the case of the Inspiron 5000 2-in-1 model, Dell has decided to go for two different screen sizes, namely 13 inches and 15 inches, both of which come with a wide-angle full-HD resolution. A backlit camera is available too, and Dell is also offering an option that’s super powerful with Intel Core i7 and up to 16 GB of RAM.
Storage comes in the form of SSDs of various sizes while security is provided by an infrared camera that makes it possible to use Windows Hello.
Pricing will begin at $529, and the new devices will go on sale in the United States on June 2.
Dell Inspiron 15 & 17 5000
And last but not least, there are the new and bigger Inspiron 15 & 17 5000 that feature 15.6- and 17-inch displays with full HD resolution support. Several CPU options are offered, but the top-of-the-end configuration includes an Intel Core i7 processor coupled with 16 GB of RAM.
The typical Windows 10 features are also supported, including Windows Hello for biometric authentication.
Pricing hasn’t yet been announced, and the new laptops will go on sale later this year in several colors, including Midnight Blue, Bali Blue, Fog Night, and Tango Red.
