Dell Has Rounded Off Its Pro 3 Series
Dell has rounded off its Pro 3 Series with a new 14-inch model. To recap, the company introduced an Intel alternative in May alongside multiple other Wildcat Lake-powered Pro laptops. By contrast, the Pro 3 Series 14 (P314265) adopts AMD’s more powerful Ryzen AI 400 platform, which should help it outshine the Pro 14 Plus PB14255 we reviewed in January.
Specific Configuration Options
Specifically, the P314265 can be configured with the Ryzen AI 5 Pro 435, Ryzen AI 7 450 or the Ryzen AI 7 Pro 450. According to our benchmarks, even the entry-level Ryzen AI 5 Pro 435 surpasses the performance of Dell’s Intel-powered alternatives. Additionally, these AMD processors can be complemented with 16 GB, 32 GB or 64 GB of DDR5-5600 RAM running in dual-channel mode.
Moreover, Dell offers its new 14-inch laptop with PCIe Gen 4 or PCIe Gen 5 SSDs and Wi-Fi 6E or Wi-Fi 7 modems. On top of that, one can equip 45 Wh, 57 Wh or 70 Wh batteries with dedicated Long Life Cycle options. Currently, the P314265 only comes with 1200p IPS display options. All lacking a touchscreen layer too, only one panel reaches 500 nits and supports a 120 Hz variable refresh rate. In comparison, Dell’s other three options peak at 400 nits with a 60 Hz refresh rate.
Pricing and Availablity
The P314265 starts at £1,472 in the UK and €1,654-€1,728 in the Eurozone before delving into Dell’s configurator. Meanwhile, Dell requires those in Australia to call to place an order. Currently, the P314265 is unavailable in North America, although pricing should start at $1,799 in the US and CAD 2,299 in Canada. Please see Dell’s website for more details.
