US-based consumer electronics supplier Dell has unveiled its latest all-in-one desktop PC that caters to users who wish to have a working station with big touchscreen display minus the bulk of traditional desktop PCs.
The new Dell XPS 18 is equipped with a huge 18.4-inch touch screen display with full-HD resolution (1080p) and will be offered in three different variants. Looking closely inside, it is powered by Intel processor ranging from the cheapest Intel Pentium 2117U processor (with 1.8GHz, 2M cache) to Ivy Bridge Core i3-3227U (1.9GHz, 3M cache) or if you prefer a more high-end variant, the Core i5-3337U (2.7GHz 3M cache).
The starting level has the following specs: Intel HD Graphics 4000, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 320GB SATA HDD, WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0, Windows 8 64-bit, wireless keyboard and mouse and pre-loaded McAfee anti-virus (trial version). The higher-end models differ only in terms of processor and RAM (the second tier offers 4GB while the highest offers 8GB). All models weighs 4.85lbs which is a tad heavy for the ladies specially if they want to carry it around the house. Of course, it still depends on individual preferences.
Interested customers can now pre-order the XPS 18 AIO PC at Dell’s website. The desktop models cost $ 900, $ 1000 and $ 1349, respectively and are expected to ship by next month.
