The Dell Pro Max series includes the Pro Max 14 and Pro Max 16 models, featuring 14-inch and 16-inch variants. The Pro Max 16 laptop will feature the latest Arrow Lake Core Ultra 9 processors paired with NVIDIA RTX 2000-series GPUs. This model will boast a 16-inch 16:10 ratio display with QHD+ resolution and will have a full-size keyboard. The Pro Max 14, on the other hand, will also bring the Core Ultra 9 processors, but the GPUs will be from the NVIDIA RTX 500-class Pro series.

It will have a smaller 14-inch display but will have the same aspect ratio and resolution as the 16-inch model. Equipped with 6400 MT/s speeds and 2TB of storage, both are excellent for productivity and intensive workloads. Also, with the latest connectivity options like Wi-Fi 7 and BT 5.4, these models go on par with the high-end PC hardware.

The second lineup of laptops belongs to the Plus series, featuring newer models: Dell 16 Plus/ 2-in-1, and Dell 14 Plus/ 2-in-1. Each model has two variants: for those who want to go for the regular layout and also for those who want the 2-in-1 setups. Both laptop models offer Intel Lunar Lake chips such as Core Ultra 226V, 228V, 256V, 258V, and 288V. Each model offers different resolutions so that users can either go for the standard FHD+ WVA touch display or QHD+ non-touch display.

These laptops will have either 16 GB or 32 GB LPDDR5X memory clocked at 8533 MT/s, which is integrated into the Lunar Lake processor itself. The Dell 16 Plus and Dell 14 Plus are aimed at greater productivity and significantly longer battery life, and bring the Lunar Lake AI capabilities to the fingertips of users.

The third lineup is the Dell Pro, featuring the regular Pro, Pro Premium, and Pro Plus series laptops. Similar to the above ones, these are available in 14 and 16-inch models, but the Pro Plus and Pro Premium bring 13-inch models as well. These laptops will be available with various Intel CPU series, including the entry-level ultra-power-efficient Intel Raptor Lake Refresh U series, Intel Core Ultra U series (Arrow Lake), and Intel Core Ultra V series (Lunar Lake: regular and Pro series).

Depending on the CPU model, the integrated graphics will be different on each laptop and there are different display technologies one can find on them. These include FHD+ to QHD+ resolutions with IPS and Tandem OLED displays. By releasing a variety of configurations, Dell is offering budget-friendly as well as powerful mid-range and high-end laptop models for professionals, which will be available in retail stores soon.
