Dell has some great laptop deals for anyone seeking something business-focused. While the focus is usually on more personal laptops, this Dell Latitude 5440, which is currently on sale, is the perfect device for business users.

It’s small enough to ensure that the Dell Latitude 5440 is pretty lightweight, and the touchscreen is a nice, practical touch. Above it is a full HD webcam with temporal noise reduction, a camera shutter, and a mic, so it’s a good option for taking video calls. There’s also intelligent audio which removes background noise and echoes on both ends of the call. These things upgrade your video calls and ensure you seem more professional while participating in important meetings.

Nothing about the Dell Latitude 5440 quite beats the very best laptops, but it’s reliable and has all the core essentials. That includes some neat business-focused tools, such as onlooker detection for whenever anyone peers at your screen, and look away detect where the screen dims the moment your focus is elsewhere. There’s also ExpressSign-in for waking up your system when you’re close and automatically locking it when you step away.

The Dell Latitude 5440 normally costs $1,569, but right now you can buy it from Dell for $1,089 so you save a huge $480 off the regular price. This is the ideal time to buy for anyone looking for something with specific business features. You’ll love how reliable the Dell Latitude 5440 is. Check it out now before the deal ends soon.

Acer’s Predator Atlas 8 finally has a US release date and price, several months after the company first showed off the handheld in May. The highlight is the Intel Arc G3 Extreme chip inside, which has been adopted by only a couple of other consoles besides the Atlas 8. This version will go on sale exclusively at Best Buy on November 1 for $1,299.99.

Acer originally said the Atlas 8 would arrive in North America in October, but left pricing open at the time. The launch came amid the ongoing DRAM crunch, which has made memory more expensive across the PC industry and complicated pricing for hardware makers.

Google DeepMind's AI world model Genie 4 can now build interactive worlds that you can explore and reshape as they run. It also generates ambient sounds, music, and dialogue that respond to your actions.

The new world model builds on Genie 3 with improved realism, more natural human movement, and better simulations of real-world physics. It could eventually help with everything from game development to training robots.

Apple has an incredible talent for making me admire its products while simultaneously questioning what on earth it's thinking with the pricing. This isn't even something as bizarre as a monitor stand, but the audacity for starting a new laptop lineup from $2,000 doesn't surprise me.

The newly announced 14-inch MacBook Pro with M6 is just the latest to showcase this. The funny thing is, I already know that it's going to be a reliable workstation. You get a powerful new 2nm M6 processor, a gorgeous Liquid Retina XDR display, and up to 24 hours of battery life. We were impressed by the M5 MacBook Air, so the high-end M6 powered MacBook Pro definitely won't let us down.
