Product details

Imagine you sit down at the computer. It recognizes you as a person authorized to access - quite conveniently without a complicated password.
Then you take off on a test flight - in the middle of which you ask yourself what the altitude record of the SR-71 is. Your digital assistant knows the answer. Speaking of records, of course your notebook boots up (almost) as fast as The Flash and is especially flat. Sound like a comic book hero? Not at all. All you need is a modern notebook or convertible with Windows 10: Windows Hello facilitates the login in cooperation with IR camera, fingerprint sensor or PIN code. The digital assistant Cortana is your personal Jarvis. Thanks to modern memory like eMMC, SSD or Intel Optane, your Windows Modern device is slim and fast. On devices with Windows Ink, you'll even write on the screen with a stylus. And if rogues and villains attack you during the day, you won't be bothered by them, because a whole team of heroes is fending them off in the background. Finally, any security vulnerabilities in Windows 10 will be fixed for many years - unlike the old Windows 7, whose support is limited to 10 years.

Get through the day effortlessly with this ultra-slim laptop as your companion. The all-new Inspiron 14 5000 laptop is slim and easy to take with you, whether you're heading to your favorite coffee shop or a flight around the world.

Thanks to the sensor built into the cover, you can flip the laptop open and boot it up in an instant, no matter what operating state it's in. Optional Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+), also called 802.11ax, offers faster connection speeds, stability, and range, so you don't have to wait for an unstable signal to connect. Your Inspiron's PCIe NVMe solid-state drive (SSD) is fast, quiet, and more shock-resistant than hard drives, providing stable performance on the go.
