What you need to know
Dell is absolutely relentless with its release pace. A few weeks ago, we received theDell Latitude 7320 Detachable, and now we’re set to get two more Latitudes: the 5421 and 5521. These will feature the latest hardware, includingIntel’s new CPUs.
Not only will the new Latitudes be strong, but they’ll also be among the first PCs to use bioplastics from trees, according to Dell. “Latitude 5000 Series laptops were the first PCs to use reclaimed carbon fiber in the design and are the first to use 21% bioplastics from trees in the lid,” Dell states, touting this development as part of its company-wide sustainability initiative.
Dell’s 5000 series Latitudes also feature built-in AI that adapts to your work habits to boost application performance and improve battery life. Furthermore, not only are the laptops smarter than ever before, but they’re also smaller. Couple that with their config options going all the way up to extreme values such as support for 64GB of RAM, and these tiny machines can pack as much of a punch as you need them to. Here are their specs:
As stated above, there’s no telling what the starting price of these models will be, and exact release dates are yet to be announced. The only known fact is that Dell is targeting summer for release, so more concrete details should trickle out of the company soon. We will provide updates on the Latitude line as details emerge.
