Dell’s back-to-school deals are in full swing, and if you’re planning to buy a new laptop for the upcoming academic year, you may want to consider the Dell 14 Plus. It’s going to be a reliable machine for students of any level, and it’s a pretty attractive purchase right now because of Dell’s $400 discount that drops its price from $1,100 to only $700. The device’s stocks may already be running low though, so you need to hurry if you want to take advantage of this offer.
The Dell 14 Plus is an excellent laptop that can meet the needs of college students with its Intel Core Ultra 7 256V processor, Intel Arc Graphics, and 16GB of RAM that our guide on how much RAM do you need says is on the level of top-tier machines. The device also features a screen that measures 14 inches for portability, but with 2.5K resolution so that you won’t have a hard time looking at the details of the projects that you’ll be working on.
Another way that the Dell 14 Plus can boost your productivity is through Microsoft’s Copilot. It’s a Copilot+ laptop, which means it’s designed to maximize the capabilities of the AI assistant, for all the help that you need in dealing with your daily schoolwork. The device also ships with Windows 11 Home pre-installed in its 1TB SSD, which will offer plenty of storage space for all your files and the apps that you’ll use for the year.
There are laptop deals popping up everywhere as the new school year approaches, but not all of them are worth buying. Here’s one that we recommend — the Dell 14 Plus for only $700, following a $400 discount from Dell itself on its sticker price of $1,100. We’re not sure how much time is remaining before the offer expires though, so if you don’t want to miss this bargain price for the Dell 14 Plus laptop, you should add it to your cart and finish the checkout process as soon as you can.
The absolutely absurd idea of putting a touchscreen display on a mouse isn't exactly new. Turtle Beach already did it with its Command Series MC7, which features a 2.25-inch control screen. But apparently, even that wasn't ridiculous enough for Arctic Fox Technologies. Its new Super Mouse looks like someone took the chunky old Atari ST mouse, slapped a touchscreen and scroll wheel on it, and called it an upgrade.
The result is a rather unusual-looking mouse that is now on Kickstarter, starting at $199. And as ridiculous as it looks, some of its features are genuinely intriguing.
Apple is less than a day away from launching its highly anticipated OLED MacBook Pro with a touch-sensitive screen. But it appears that the upgrade is going to cost a pretty penny. According to a report by Bloomberg, Apple is reportedly eyeing a starting price of $2,899 for the 14-inch MacBook Pro, while the 16-inch version could start at $3,399 in the US.
"At $2,899, the 14-inch model would mark the highest starting price for a new MacBook Pro model, surpassing the $2,799 Apple charged for a 17-inch version introduced in 2006," says the report. The report claims that Apple is targeting a minimum price hike of $400 for its upcoming redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.
I've spent a good amount of time digging into the spec sheet of the new M6 MacBook Pro (14-inch), and for all intents and purposes, this is a classic Apple "chip and connectivity" refresh. It's not a full redesign. The chassis, Liquid Retina XDR panel, speakers, ports, and battery, all of them carry over unchanged.
However, the M6 brings more cores, stronger on-device AI, higher memory bandwidth on the larger configs, and modern wireless. Here’s the practical rundown of what actually improved, and whether those gains are worth your money.
