Dell Launches 34-Inch Curved Monitor, Adds 4K Option And RealSense 3D To Inspiron Laptops

Earlier today, we brought you news of the exciting new XPS 13 notebook, refreshed Alienware 15 and 17 notebooks, and the availability of the Venue 8 7000 Series tablet that was originally announced in September of last year. But those products aren’t the only ones that Dell has on display here in Las Vegas, there are still a few more products lurking in the shadows…

Dell’s Inspiron laptops might not have the same flair as the XPS or Alienware lineups, but they’re still workhorse machines that will get the job done with little fuss. The company today launched the Inspiron 15 7000 Series, which — like most new laptops announced this week — comes with fifth generation Intel Core processors. Dell is even making available a 4K Ultra HD touch display optional for those that don’t mind paying extra to have such a high resolution screen at your disposal.

Dell also announced that Intel’s RealSense 3D Camera system (which is also found in the Venue 8 7000 Series tablet) will make its way into both the Inspiron 15 5000 Series laptops and the Inspiron 23 All-in-One Desktop. In addition to the RealSense camera, the Inspiron 15 5000 Series also brings with it fifth generation Intel Core processors and battery life that comes this close to reaching 8 hours.

Last but not least on the PC front is the Special Edition Inspiron 13 7000 Series 2-in-1 convertible that will launch in March. It features a 360-degree hinge that allows the screen to fold all the way back so that you can use the device as a tablet. In total, four modes are supported: laptop, tent, easel, and tablet.  

The Inspiron 15 7000 Series, Inspiron 15 5000 Series, and Inspiron 23 All-in-One are all available right now for purchase from Dell and are priced from $1,099.99, $749.99, and $1,599.99 respectively. Pricing is not yet available for the Special Edition Inspiron 13 7000 Series 2-in-1. 

The last piece to Dell’s CES 2015 puzzle is the UltraSharp 34 U3415W monitor. In what seems to be a growing trend for PC displays and TVs, the UltraSharp 34 features a curved display. It also features a 21:9 aspect ratio and a WQHD (2560x1440) screen resolution.
