This is thanks to the 7000-series new all-aluminum design, which also helps to passively cool the system as well. The 17-inch hybrid also features sixth generation Intel Core I-series processors and USB-C that connects to Dell's multiport adapter and charge other mobile devices.

If a 17-inch laptop is too big for your liking, Dell is also introducing 13-inch and 15-inch models. The new convertible Inspiron 7000-series will be available with a starting price of $799 on June 2.
