Dell’s lightest ever laptop has just launched and no, it’s not an XPS 13 – the Latitude 7350 weighs just over two pounds and is unashamedly premium
After unveiling a range of XPS laptops at CES, Dell introduced ten new Latitude laptops at MWC 2024, including a new 7350 variant. Weighing just 0.989kg, it’s available as a laptop or 2-in-1 (a detachable model will be available soon). As expected from Dell, you can customize the configuration to suit your needs.
Under the sleek River Blue magnesium chassis, the Latitude 7350 is powered by an Intel Core Ultra 5 135U processor. If you need more power, you can upgrade to a Core Ultra 7 165U (Core Ultra 5 125U is also an option).
The Latitude 7350 comes with 16 GB of LPDDR5x RAM running at 6400 MT/s, with the option to upgrade to 32 GB or 64 GB depending on the CPU you choose.
Choice of displays
For storage, it comes with a 256GB M.2 2230 TLC PCIe Gen 4 NVMe SSD, with the option to upgrade to 512GB or 1TB.
If you prioritize a lightweight device, the ultra-light 13.3-inch FHD+ display (1920×1200), available in touch and non-touch versions, is the choice for you. However, there is also a 2-in-1 Touch QHD+ (2560×1600) option, as well as Laptop Touch FHD+ and Laptop Non-Touch screens to choose from.
The Latitude 7350 comes with Windows 11 Pro or Home (like most new PCs, the keyboard has a Copilot key) and features an FHD or optional FHD IR camera.
In terms of connectivity, the Latitude 7350 features a USB 3.2 Gen 1 port with Power Share, an HDMI 2.1 port, and two Thunderbolt 4.0 ports with Power Delivery and DisplayPort. An optional contacted SmartCard reader is also available, but only with the heavier Titan Gray aluminum chassis.
The basic configuration for the laptop starts at $1,809. The detachable Latitude 7350 model is expected to arrive in the second quarter.
