Dell says that its most innovative and smallest laptop webcam has been added to the top bezel after customer feedback.
The display has an HDR400 certified UHD+ panel and it also supports Dolby Vision. Dell’s EyeSafe display has been implemented in the machine that apparently reduces the emission of blue light and still manages to retain the colour gamut.
It features a premium design with an aluminum body with a “black carbon fiber” or “arctic white woven glass fiber” palm rests. Users also get Gorilla Glass 5 on the screen, larger touchpad, Dell’s MagLev keyboard, and new hinge design.
