Dell Technologies launches new PCs, monitors and software to enable people work from their homes more effectively and efficiently
Smarting under the infliction of the COVID-19 pandemic and the consequent shift to WFH culture, Dell Technologies takes lead in empowering people – with new PCs, monitors and software – into working from remote locations more efficiently. So, with a new portfolio of intelligent, collaborative and sustainable devices, Dell is transforming work experiences to give people greater flexibility to work from anywhere.
“People’s expectations of their technology continue to evolve. It’s why we push beyond barriers to create devices that offer better experiences and are more integrated into our lives,” said Ed Ward, Senior Vice President, Client Product Group, Dell Technologies. “Our new intelligent PCs make it possible for us to work smarter and collaborate easier, so we can give our best selves in all that we do. Secure, sustainable and smart that’s the way forward for PCs”, added Ward.
Bob O’Donnell, President & Chief Analyst, TECHnalysis Research, opined, “The PC industry just had its biggest year in six years, closing in on roughly 300 million units in 2020. As we look toward the future, it’s the user experiences that matter and will determine who the real winners are. Devices designed to make work easier and to help us collaborate and connect are imperative for wherever or however we work. And it goes without saying that these devices must be secure—customers need the confidence that security is built-into a device”.
Smart computing
Intelligent devices learn and respond as one works to enhance one’s technology experience. Dell further modernizes its commercial portfolio with the exclusive Dell Optimizer software, which uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to automatically fine-tune application performance, battery life, audio quality and connectivity.
The latest Dell Optimizer features elevate connectivity and collaboration experiences across Dell’s new device portfolio. Intelligent background noise-cancelling and auto-mute features make it easier to collaborate with colleagues, and smart connectivity features like ExpressConnect prioritize bandwidth to your conferencing apps to prevent dropped calls.
Designed as the most collaborative business PCs with the best connectivity and collaboration experiences, the Latitude 9420 comes with a powerful built-in speakerphone and camera enhancements that provide automatic light correction and background blur so you can feel confident in any video call. Get to work faster with the world’s first PC with Intel® Visual Sensing Technology to offer a more reliable auto wake and lock. Multitask on fast connections with WiFi 6E or 5G LTE . Advanced thermals and 11th Gen Intel Core vPro processors coming in January 2021, based on the Intel Evo platform, provide increased performance and simplified manageability. For those wanting larger screen sizes, the Latitude 7520 now comes in a 15-inch screen and offers a 4K UHD display and optional full high-definition (FHD) camera.
Collaboration is easier and more efficient with the Dell 34 curved video conferencing monitors. The 34-inch curved video conferencing monitor has been certified for Microsoft Teams. Also available in 24-inch and 27-inch sizes, the monitors offer secure facial recognition sign-in and hands-free commands to provide enhanced security and convenience.
With more people in front of their screens and devices, ComfortView Plus is an always-on, built-in solution that reduces low blue light without sacrificing true-to-life colors. It is available on the new video conferencing monitors, the world’s first 40-inch ultrawide curved 5K2K monitor – the Dell UltraSharp 40 curved WUHD monitor. The ComfortView Plus is also deployed on new Latitude range of Pcs.
Green all the way
In line with Dell’s Progress Made Real social impact plan, the company incorporates sustainable solutions, materials and packaging which has resulted in the industry’s most sustainable commercial PC portfolio.3 With Dell’s commitment to sustainability spanning design, performance and takeback, you can feel confident buying, using – and when done – recycling your Dell systems.
The new Latitude 5000 series and Precision 3560 take this even further as the first PCs to use bioplastic from tree waste in their design. Produced using a by-product of the paper making process called ‘tall oil,’ these devices feature lids containing 21 percent bioplastic content , supporting Dell’s moonshot goal that by 2030, more than half of our product content will be made with recycled or renewable materials. By focusing on the second heaviest part of the device – the lid – Dell can make the largest sustainability impact, reducing the product’s carbon, water and energy footprint, while maintaining Dell’s high reliability, durability and performance standards.
Secured systems
Dell’s long time intrinsic security approach builds intelligent and automated security deep within each system to provide the industry’s most secure commercial PCs.2 Now, Dell Technologies security capabilities start at the factory with supply chain security and integrity controls and extend to its built-in safeguards designed to prevent, detect and respond to malicious attacks below and above the operating system.
The Latitude 9420 and 9520 deliver advanced security features like SafeShutter, the industry’s first automatic webcam shutter that knows when to automatically open or close by syncing with your video conferencing applications, so you can work securely and confidently from anywhere. Take control of your privacy with secure mic and mute keys to work confidently from anywhere.
Sensible design
Dell continues to refine the design of its products to more seamlessly blend into new home office environments. Expanding its award winning, modular form factor design that hides the PC in the monitor stand, the new OptiPlex 3090 Ultra is a cost-effective solution for small businesses and educators. It joins the intelligent OptiPlex 7090 Ultra, which now supports up to four 4k monitors at once.
Moreover, Dell Technologies Unified Workspace supports organizations as they continue their modernization journey. For deployment, security, management and support, Unified Workspace provides a tried-and-true approach to modernizing the endpoint environment and optimizing employee experiences.
Also, Dell PCaaS (PC as-a-Service) provides these latest devices with full lifecycle services including support and software and responsible retirement at an affordable, predictable monthly cost. This gives companies the ability to refresh their devices every 36 months while ensuring employees have the right device for their work to be productive and collaborative anywhere.
