New Dell ultrabooks out

MANILA, Philippines - Dell has introduced its new XPS 14 and Inspiron 14z ultrabooks, joining the successful XPS 13.

As part of Dell’s ultrabook portfolio, this array of laptops enables customers to choose the one that best suits their needs. Both 14-inch screen laptops have an updated design and craftsmanship that deliver multiple uses and functions.

Having known the success of the award-winning XPS 13, the new XPS 14 ultrabook is designed to provide longer battery life and connectivity, catering to those customers who need to get online wherever they are.

The XPS 14 is also distinguished by its vibrant display with hardened Corning Gorilla glass, and uses the latest Intel technology such as third-generation processors, and Intel Rapid Start, Smart Response and Smart Connect technologies, to enable users to be productive, connected and responsive anywhere.

Dell also expands its ultrabook laptop collections by offering the Inspiron 14z ultrabook with Intel Rapid Start technology for a fast boot and resume that last up to seven hours of battery life. Thus, it is an updated design for the Inspiron line with curved edges for a smooth, contemporary look that combines premium design and multimedia performance.

XPS 14: Exceptional features

Designed for mobile users, the XPS 14 ultrabook features a design that goes beyond beauty. It has a highly durable machined aluminum chassis with innovative silicone base in a compact, thin, 20.7-mm design. It comes with a powerful third-generation Intel Core i5 or i7 processors and delivers an exceptionally long battery life.
