Dell Technologies has introduced the new Dell Pro Essential 14 and Dell Pro Essential 15, two laptops designed with the needs of small businesses in mind.<\/p>\n
Built to balance portability, performance, security and connectivity, the new Pro Essential models are aimed at growing teams that need reliable PCs without the complexity often associated with enterprise hardware.<\/p>\n
Thinner and lighter for work on the go<\/strong> The new Dell Pro Essential 14 and 15 are 11% thinner and between 9% and 16% lighter than their predecessors, making them easier to carry throughout the workday.<\/p>\n They are available in Celestial Blue and Platinum Silver, giving the laptops a more modern look while still fitting into a professional environment.<\/p>\n Designed to make everyday work easier <\/strong> The refreshed keyboard features dedicated shortcut keys, including a microphone mute key with an LED indicator, a dictation key for voice input and a snapshot key for quickly capturing the screen.<\/p>\n The touchpad is also 6% larger than the previous generation, providing more space for navigation, multitasking and gestures. Video conferencing is supported by either an HD or FHD IR camera, depending on configuration, alongside dual microphones designed to provide clearer audio during meetings.<\/p>\n Performance and connectivity <\/strong> That combination gives small business users enough headroom for everyday productivity tasks, multitasking and working with multiple applications at once.<\/p>\n Connectivity is equally flexible. Both models offer two USB-C ports, two USB-A ports, HDMI and a 3.5mm audio jack, while Intel configurations also include an RJ-45 Ethernet port for users who prefer a wired connection.<\/p>\n Security built in<\/strong> Both laptops include a Trusted Platform Module (TPM), biometric authentication through an optional fingerprint reader or FHD IR camera, a mechanical camera shutter and a security lock slot.<\/p>\n The laptops have also been tested to MIL-STD-810H standards, giving them additional durability for the demands of everyday business use.<\/p>\n On the sustainability front, the Dell Pro Essential 14 and 15 carry EPEAT Gold Climate+ and ENERGY STAR certifications. Their packaging is also made using 100% recycled or renewable materials.<\/p>\n Built for growing businesses<\/strong> The Dell Pro Essential range takes a relatively simple approach: provide the performance needed for everyday work, useful productivity features, modern connectivity and business-focused security, without adding unnecessary complexity.<\/p>\n As Zach Noskey, Head of Product for Commercial Notebooks & Education at Dell Technologies, puts it, the laptops are designed around the reality of people “moving between places, switching between tasks and needing a PC that works reliably and securely wherever work takes them.”<\/p>\n Availability and pricing<\/strong> Dell Technologies has introduced the new Dell Pro Essential 14 and Dell Pro Essential 15, two laptops designed with the needs of small businesses in mind.
