Dell is holding a back to school sale on all kinds of laptops and accessories, and there are some significant discounts on offer. The company's newly-released line of Premium laptops is up to $350 off, depending on the screen size and overall specs.
A solid starter computer for students is the Dell Premium 14 base model, which is down to $1,500 from $1,650. It boasts an Intel Core Ultra 7 processor, 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. The RAM can be increased to 32GB and the hard drive to 1TB, but that costs extra. The standard monitor is a 14.5-inch 2K panel, but that can also be upgraded to an OLED touchscreen.
The larger Premium 16 is a better bet for students looking for something a bit beefier. The specced out version is down to $2,350, which is $350 off the usual price. This one includes an Intel Core Ultra 9 CPU, a GeForce 5060 GPU, 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD. The monitor can be upgraded to a 4K touchscreen, but that increases the price tag.
For the uninitiated, Dell's Premium line of laptops basically replaced the XPS line. These computers keep the elegant wedge-like form factor and feature bezel-free displays coated in Gorilla Glass 3. There's also a newly-designed thermal system that should allow maximal airflow and offer minimal noise.
