Dell listens to what its consumers want and need from their PCs - convenience, powerful performance, beautiful design and a device that fits their lifestyle. Timed to Computex 2019, Dell is delivering on this, introducing multiple new products across its consumer and small business portfolio. Starting with its acclaimed, premiere XPS line and weaved throughout its mainstream Inspiron and Vostro brands, the devices create a harmonious balance of both experience and design, and takes innovation to a new level with precise attention to meaningful details and flawless execution.

“We’re thrilled to be back at Computex further spotlighting the exceptional innovation we kicked off earlier this year at CES 2019, said Ray Wah, senior vice president, Consumer and Small Business Product Group, Dell. “We’re always listening to the needs of our customers and we’ve really delivered with smaller and sleeker designs, flawless detail, and high performance, that we bring to our devices.”

The new XPS 13 2-in-1 - modern, thinner design with 2.5 times more performance

The XPS line is Dell’s most awarded line of devices celebrated for its best-in-class technologies, exceptional build and materials, and ability to blend both power and beauty. Dell is taking that commitment one step further with the launch of the new XPS 13 2-in-1, redesigned and higher performing than the previous generation.

To achieve this, the display experience has been elevated on all fronts, refining the InfinityEdge display in a 16:10 format, now offering a stunning edge-to-edge screen and 7% larger viewing experience. The world’s most innovative webcam and Dell’s smallest laptop camera ever is now located at the top bezel, a long awaited ask from customers. The new display offers improved colour accuracy and resolution with FHD+ and UHD+ to capture precise detail and sharp images, as well as the ability to enjoy HDR content with HDR400 certified UHD+ panel and Dolby Vision.

With the new Eyesafe® display, Dell is reducing harmful blue light emission while maintaining colour performance. The device-driven culture has people staring at devices for hours on end each day, so Dell has invested in this functionality to intelligently manage light energy at the source to selectively reduce harmful blue light and disperse it across the light spectrum.

While the display and design is stunning, Dell hasn’t pushed performance aside. In fact, its been elevated from fanless design to an actively cooled 15W design for up to 2.5 times more performance than the previous generation.

The XPS 13 2-in-1 is Dell’s first laptop with Intel’s 10th Gen Intel Core processors and features adaptive performance based on the latest Intel Dynamic Tuning Technology, which proactively changes the power of the CPU according to the performance of the workload. Dell has reengineered the thermal design to cool the higher performing processor, while creating an overall 8% thinner 2-in-1 than the previous generation.

The new design combines expert craftsmanship and premium materials, including CNC machined aluminium with high polished diamond cut sidewalls, black carbon fibre or arctic white woven glass fibre palm rests, along with Gorilla Glass 5 for both durability and beauty. Dell has also elevated the essentials with a larger touchpad, edge-to-edge MagLev keyboard and new cleverly crafted hinge design, blending together an exceptional user experience and beautiful design, in the smallest size.

New XPS 15 - Pushing Innovation to the Edge

The beloved XPS 15 is back and better than ever. Dell’s flagship and the smallest 15.6-inch performance laptop, with the longest battery life of any 15-inch laptop, now offers even more power with the latest 9th Generation Intel® Core™ processors up to 8 core i9 and up to NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1650 graphics, enabling creators to experience faster speeds across graphic design, photography and music production.

It includes a stunning UltraSharp 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160) InfinityEdge 15.6” touch display option to deliver high brightness, saturated colour and precise details, enabling content creators to perform at their best for intensive projects. As previewed at CES 2019, the XPS 15 will offer an OLED option, the first in the XPS line - complete with self-lighting pixels which switch off completely to achieve perfect black for significantly higher contrast, so content comes alive with breathtaking detail, especially in dark areas. The 4K display paired with Dolby Vision can deliver content up to 40 times brighter and darks up to 10 times darker, creating an ultra-vivid picture quality experience unlike any other.

The addition of Killer™ AX1650 built on Intel WiFi 6 Chipset delivers a computing experience nearly 3x as fast as the previous generation and up to 4x more throughput in crowded environments. Coupled with up to 64GB of memory and up to 2TB PCIe SSD, and the longest battery life of any 15-inch laptop, consumers have a high performance, unmatched device. 

Finally, the XPS 15 comes with the world’s most innovative laptop camera at  the top bezel without sacrificing the InfinityEdge display. We continue to prioritise beautiful design in the product by leveraging premium materials including CNC machined aluminium, carbon fibre and Gorilla Glass to create a durable yet one of the smallest 15.6-inch laptops of its kind.

New Inspiron PCs - power and style to suit every consumer

Dell’s new Inspiron portfolio includes a range of new, versatile laptops, 2-in-1s and AIOs, with fresh and contemporary designs, features, and prices; so that everyone can find something to fit their needs and spark their potential.

The new Inspiron 15 7000 is an ultralight laptop prioritizing performance, equipped with 9th generation Intel® CoreTM H-class processors that offer up to 8 cores, up to 16GB of DDR4 memory and dual NVMe SSD options, along with latest NVIDIA® GTX® 1650 graphics to deliver a high performance laptop for everyday use and creative side-projects.  The laptop is built with magnesium alloy for incredible lightness and maintains the rigidity and stability of traditional aluminium. The power button is incorporated within the keyboard and fingerprint reader for a cleaner look, allowing room for a full number pad on the narrow-border display. The new Adaptive Thermals of the system detects if the laptop is on a lap or desk, and change the thermal profiles accordingly.  Along with dual heat pipes, fans and a drop-hinge, the components work together to keep the system cool by exhausting heat out of hidden vents in the hinge, allowing for an overall thin and light design without compromising on performance.

In addition, Dell is introducing the new Inspiron 13 5000 laptop which combines a 13” display with a thin and light design and mobile broadband connection  – a perfect companion for the busy, on-the-go lifestyle. Many consumers want a portable and striking device, so Dell focused on creating a stylish aesthetic with aluminium material, narrow borders, and diamond cut edges around the touchpad, along with contemporary colours, including cool Platinum Silver and calming Iced Lilac. Finally, users can get work done or stream their favourite show wherever they are, even without a WiFi connection, with mobile broadband* via a Micro SIM card slot.

Rounding out the lineup, the Inspiron 11 3000 2-in-1 is an excellent entry-level convertible that offers plenty of computing power for everyday needs.  Featuring an HD screen, 7th Generation AMD processors, plenty of ports, and adequate eMMC storage, this flexible 2-in-1 is perfect as a companion system or as an entertainment device.  Its compact size is easy to tote in a bag for mobility and is easy to handle in any mode- laptop, tent, stand, or tablet.

Lastly, previously announced at CES 2019, the thin and sleek Inspiron 7000 2-in-1 offered in both 13 and 15” displays, and equipped with the world’s first pen garage hinge, is now available globally. 

Inspiron All-In-Ones - redesigned to harmonise the home or office

Dell is announcing two new completely redesigned All-in-Ones that bring a clean and renewed focus back towards the screen to minimise outside distractions. The Inspiron 24 5000 AIO and Inspiron 27 7000 AIO feature InfinityEdge and a vivid and clear 23.8” or 27” FHD 1080p display with pop-up webcam. Both contain a forward-firing speaker bar beneath the display to direct the speakers’ acoustic energy towards the listener, and with the addition of Dell Cinema, the AIOs provide an enjoyable, immersive experience whether in a kitchen, dorm or family room. Dell transitioned traditional stands to a TV-inspired stand for simple setup and to deliver a neat aesthetic, allowing users to slide the keyboard underneath the display. Both are available in several finishes with colour-coordinated stands and speaker mesh to fit seamlessly into its environment. Designed with a beautiful, harmonious style and significant performance from Next Gen Intel® Core® i3, i5 or i7 CPUs and optional NVIDIA MX 110 discrete graphics, the Inspiron AIOs are reliable, simple and affordable systems that keep consumers connected – to catch up on a favourite Netflix series or dive into homework.

New Vostros - thin, light and pack performance for small businesses

Just recently announced ahead of Small Business Week, the two additions to Dell’s Vostro line cater to the needs of small businesses, who manage growing a business while often with limited resources. The new Vostro 13 5000 is Dell’s thinnest and lightest Vostro ever and comes equipped with advanced video-conferencing technology, making it the perfect notebook for mobile professionals who need to attend meetings from anywhere. The new Vostro 15 7000 offers the latest H Series Intel® 6-core processors, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 graphics and triple drive expandability storage options for small businesses that demand a high performance system to get the job done.
