This year at CES 2020, Dell is
announcing their new G5 15 SE (Special Edition)
that is completely powered by AMD for both its CPU and GPU, targeting
the budget gamer segment. Dell also announced many concept devices including a
handheld gaming device and foldable screen devices.
The Dell G5 15 SE (Special
Edition) is a unique laptop in that it uses AMD parts for both its CPU and GPU.
For its CPU, its using the latest AMD Ryzen 3rd gen 4000 H series processors
and for its GPU, Dell is using the latest AMD Radeon RX 5000M Series graphics.
Both chips will work together with using AMD SmartShift technology, ensuring
the users get maximum performance balance between the CPU and GPU.
Other features in the laptop
include Game Shift macro key, which allows quick launch of game-ready settings
and 15.6-inch FHD display panel with the option of 144Hz refresh rate screen,
optional four-zone RGB keyboard with WASD and a optional 68WHr battery.
Coming to concept devices,
Dell has unveiled some very interesting updates. These devices are meant to
only be concepts and are not available for purchase anywhere. Alienware brought
the first concept in a handheld form factor that gamers could use to play their
favorite AAA PC titles, called Concept UFO. It features an 8” screen with
1900×1200 resolution with detachable controllers that enables multiple modes of
gameplay.
Concept UFO can be used as one
unit, with controllers attached to the screen; separating the controllers and
using the kickstand on a surface to game or stream your favorite show; or
connect it to an external display and play using the detached controller, or
use a mouse and keyboard as you would any other PC.
In the realm of foldable
devices, Dell has two new concepts called the Concept Duet and Concept Ori.
Concept Duet is a dual screen device with two 13.4-inch touch displays that is
similar to the Surface Neo that Microsoft unveiled earlier last year. Along with
pen support, the device is designed to enable users multi-task more efficiently
with the dual displays.
The Concept Ori on the other
hand features a 13 inch screen that folds in, improving portability. The device
is similar in idea with the Samsung Galaxy Device in that it gives users a much
bigger screen to use while giving the option of carrying a smaller device when
folded. The concept is built around the idea of enabling users with new
experiences, opening new avenues for multitasking and notetaking.
