Dell keeps its official website at full price while quietly clearing inventory through Amazon ahead of Black Friday, and the deals are impossible to ignore. This 15.6-inch business laptop with an Intel Core i7 processor, 1TB SSD storage and 32GB RAM just dropped to an all-time low of $909, slashed from its typical $3,399 price tag. The 73% discount puts enterprise-level computing power within reach of anyone who needs serious performance without the four-figure price tag.
The Intel Core i7-1355U processor brings 10 cores to the table and splits the workload between performance and efficiency cores. This implies that while the efficiency cores handle background applications to save battery, this laptop churns out demanding tasks like compiling code or rendering videos with the performance cores. You can run multiple virtual machines for development work, edit RAW photo files in Lightroom or keep 30 browser tabs open while video conferencing without the system choking.
The 32GB of RAM changes the way you interact with memory-intensive applications: You can load entire databases into memory for faster queries, run multiple Docker containers side by side, or edit 4K video timelines without pre-rendering proxies. This much memory means Chrome won’t slow down when you have research tabs from last week still open and switching between applications happens instantaneously rather than waiting for things to load from disk.
Storage capacity reaches 1TB through NVMe SSD and gives you read speeds of about 3,500 MB/s and write speeds of about 3,000 MB/s. These are speeds whereby Windows boots in a number of seconds, applications launch in an instant, and even big file transfers complete before you’ve finished your coffee.
This 15.6-inch FHD runs at a 120Hz refresh rate which makes scrolling through documents and websites noticeably smoother compared to most 60Hz screens. Text is sharper during rapid scrolling, while the anti-glare coating cuts down on eye strain during long sessions under fluorescent office lights or near windows. The higher refresh rate also serves well in casual gaming during breaks and lends even older games a more responsive feel.
Windows 11 Pro includes several features that people with Home versions don’t get including BitLocker encryption to protect sensitive files, Remote Desktop for accessing your machine from anywhere, and Hyper-V for running virtual machines. The fingerprint reader is integrated with Windows Hello which means you only need a touch to log in instead of having to type passwords.
Last but not least, battery life supports a full workday away from outlets and the rapid charging brings you back to 50 percent capacity in 30 minutes.
At $909 for specs that would normally cost upwards of $3,000, this Dell laptop provides professional computing power at a fraction of the price.
