Dell stuffed an enterprise-grade NPU into its new Pro Max Plus laptop
Dell just announced the new Pro Max Plus laptop, which the company has stuffed with an enterprise-grade NPU. This makes it a top-tier choice for on-device AI applications.
The Pro Max Plus features the Qualcomm AI 100 PC Inference Card, making it the "world's first mobile workstation with an enterprise-grade discrete NPU." This NPU offers 32 AI-cores and 64GB of memory. This is enough to directly handle the type of large AI models that typically require the cloud to run.
We don't know anything else regarding traditional specs, but we do know that this will be one of many Pro Max Plus designs . The other models won't be quite as focused on advanced AI applications.
Dell says this laptop is primarily intended for "AI engineers and data scientists," and so it's held off on announcing pricing. Given the specs, it's likely to be way too expensive for traditional consumers. It's coming out later this year.
The company also revealed new server designs and a new cooling system for these servers. Dell's PowerCool Enclosed Rear Door Heat Exchanger (eRDHx) is an alternative to standard rear door heat exchangers. Dell says it captures 100 percent of heat generated via a "self-contained airflow system." It also suggests it can reduce cooling energy costs by up to 60 percent when compared to current alternatives.

Only 5-Star Reviews for This Dell Inspiron (i7, 64GB RAM, 2TB SSD), Now 75% Off on Amazon
Powerful laptops (for business and leisure) typically cost a lot of money, and a top-tier configuration easily pushes the price above $2,000. This is why this Dell Inspiron 15 3530 touchscreen 64GB RAM / 2TB SSD storage laptop price is begging attention with its breathtaking… 72% discount on Amazon for $999, down from an original list price of $3,599 ($2,600 off and it's not even Black Friday!). Besides that incredible price, this all-in-one package also includes Windows 11 Pro for a more secure Windows experience, Microsoft Office Pro with a lifetime license, an external CD/DVD drive, and Wi-Fi 6 connectivity right out of the box. This is definitely one of our favorite laptop deals of 2025 so far. See at Amazon Powerful And Reliable Dell Laptop The basic engine for the Dell Inspiron 15 3530 is a 13th Gen Intel Core i7-1355U processor which has 10 cores (2 performance + 8 efficiency) and 12 threads, supporting turbo speeds up to 5.0 GHz with a 12 MB cache. This processor was designed for efficiency and performance to run multiple applications at the same time including demanding business software. The integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics provide smooth visuals suitable for professional and multimedia tasks. The 64GB of DDR4 RAM is a standout feature (especially at this price point) and it allows users to run multiple applications simultaneously without a hint of slowdown. Within this class of laptops, most are capped at 16GB or 32GB, so to find a new machine with a 64GB configuration (such as this Inspiron model) is pretty rare and highly valuable. See at Amazon In terms of storage, this model exceeds expectations and what you can expect from the market: The 2TB PCIe NVMe SSD allows for speedy boot times and fast file access to handle large projects and media libraries with ease which is impressive by any standard. The inclusion of an external CD/DVD drive is a nice bonus for those who still rely on optical media. The touchscreen is also responsive (Dell is really good at this) and the keyboard allows the user to type comfortably with limited effort for extended periods of time. The range of ports should also please most users as it has 1x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, 1x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C, 1x USB 2.0, 1x SD Card Reader, 1x HDMI 1.4, and 1x Headset Jack. The connectivity is great too, bringing Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth to guarantee speedy quality in connections. The 15.6-inch Full HD IPS touchscreen is a treat for both work and play, and you'll absolutely love it. With a 1920×1080 resolution, anti-glare coating and narrow bezels, you'll see exceptional vibrant colors and well-defined details and the added convenience in touch functionality is extremely useful for presentations. The OS is a huge premium here too, being a certified copy of Windows 11 Pro for advanced security, integrated Microsoft services support, great interactivity, and a great interface that is optimized for productivity. The preinstalled Office Pro Suite with a lifetime license for latest versions of Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and countless other productivity and business tools is a great feature. As a bonus for the office worker/collaborator, the Microsoft Copilot AI is a great new integration tool. As an AI-assisted workflow tool, it is great for accelerating productivity by automating repetitive tasks and making intelligent suggestions for later on and keeping the user organized as a task planner to support productivity. Copilot is implemented to simplify the job and make it both less intimidating and less time-consuming. If you've been waiting for a sign to upgrade your tech, this might just be it. See at Amazon
