Notably, only the 16-inch versions feature an advanced 2.5K mini-LED HDR600 screen that assures a superior viewing experience with high resolution, enhanced brightness, and increased contrast, complemented by a smooth 90Hz refresh rate. This latest naming approach aligns with Dell's strategy to simplify its product range by moving away from traditional names like Latitude, Inspiron, and XPS, replacing them with simpler terms like "Plus" and "Pro" to streamline the consumer shopping experience. However, Dell’s well-recognized design language remains intact, ensuring that loyal customers will still find familiar and appealing aesthetics in their new purchases.
