KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Oct. 8, 2013 – Dell today announced its updated Inspiron portfolio with a range of new laptops and an all-in-one PC that will be on everyone’s wish list. The new systems with optional touch display offer savvy buyers dependable technology that keeps them connected, from the upscale, feature-rich Inspiron 7000 Series laptops – Dell’s thinnest and strongest Inspiron line ever – to the ultraportable Inspiron 11 3000 Series, featuring a slim design with exceptional battery life so it can keep up with you, wherever you are. For those looking for a space-saving PC without sacrificing on performance or style, the Inspiron 23 all-in-one features a full articulating stand and 10-finger capacitive touch display.

“Consumers today are looking for PCs that are not only dependable and easy to use, but are packed with all of the features they want in a thin, upscale design,” said KT Ong, general manager, Consumer and Commercial Business, Dell Malaysia. “We think this is our best Inspiron line-up ever, and we’re really proud of the tremendous value that we can provide to our customers.”

Inspiron 7000 Series: The thinnest, strongest, and best Inspiron experience ever
The Inspiron 7000 Series laptops provide powerful performance in thin, upscale designs. Featuring diamond-cut beveled edges, the 7000 Series’ forged aluminum design turns heads and feels reassuringly strong. All Inspiron 7000 Series laptops come with optional 10-finger, capacitive touch display with edge-to-edge Corning Gorilla Glass NBT for durability.

The Inspiron 14 and 15 can both be outfitted with optional Full HD, vibrant 300-nit touch displays featuring 97% more pixels than HD and 160-degree viewing angles, twice as much as regular HD. The Inspiron 7000 Series features backlit keyboards as standard to make it easy when the lights are low, and is maximized for efficiency with Intel 4th generation (Haswell) Core i5 and i7 options, as well as SSD options available later this year (Inspiron 15 and Inspiron 17) to speed up boot times and application loading.

Ideal for on-the-go types with up to 8 hours and 52 minutes of battery life , the Inspiron 14 slips easily into a sleeve or bag with its ultra-thin 0.6-inch (15.3mm) design, which is 27% thinner than its predecessor, the Inspiron 14z. The Inspiron 15 is the perfect blend of portability and performance, measuring under an inch thin (0.9 inches) with a large 15.6-inch screen and up to 7 hours, 24 minutes of battery life . At just over an inch thin (1.1 inches), the Inspiron 17 comes with an optical drive and touch, making it a compelling desktop replacement entertainment center.

In keeping with Dell’s commitment to sustainability, the Dell Inspiron 7000 Series is the first to use wheat straw as part of its packaging. This is the left over part of the wheat plant after harvesting that is often burned by farmers. By using wheat straw in its packaging, Dell is helping customers reduce their carbon footprint, and helping adjacent industries grow, while maintaining its commitment to the environment.
