Reviews for the Dell Pro 14 Premium
Dell is hitting the giant reset button for all of its laptops this year. With the Latitude name dead and gone, can the new Dell Pro 14 Premium take up the mantle?

If you’re looking at the Dell Pro 14 Premium as a personal laptop, you might look at some of Dell’s other offerings. Of course, if you require the enterprise features like the security, management features, and stability of the platform. Then you’re probably looking in the right place. For general users, you need to browse other Dell options. For the rest of you. The Dell Pro 14 Premium is a massive upgrade in its design aesthetic and feel. The Latitude lineup was boring and this is a fresh, sleek and refreshing change. The lattice keyboard is one of the main design changes that brings that fresh, sleek change to the lineup. It looks spectacular, though I will add that the travel on this model feels a bit shallow, which may not sit well with some users.

I’m not sure Dell marketing has the name of this product up to the speed that XPS and Latitude once meant. This hardware offers exceptional battery life, but it’s not a great CPU and is expensive for a machine that doesn't feel robust. A good option, then, for many business pros and PC users, though the security features may be overkill for non-business users.

At this level, little mistakes matter, and Dell has made a few unforced errors. The display is mediocre, and the touchpad is merely okay. While software updates may possibly improve the latter, the only solution for the former is to wait for the promised OLED upgrade. That's the caliber of display a laptop of this quality deserves – although, frankly, a more color-accurate IPS display would have done just fine, too. If the money is burning a hole in your IT budget right now, then our advice is to pick the Qualcomm-powered Latitude 7455 and pocket the change. As long as the ARM processor doesn't present any compatibility issues for your business, right now it's the better all-rounder. With a few tweaks here and there, the Pro 14 Premium will become a force to be reckoned with. Despite being the first of the new generation, it's positively brimming with potential. We can quibble about the cost – and you should, too, given the option – but when the talent is this impressive, it's worth the investment.

The Dell Pro 14 Premium (PA14250) certainly lives up to the “Premium” part of its name when it comes to design, build quality, and portability. Crafted from lightweight yet sturdy magnesium alloy, it boasts an elegant, fingerprint-resistant finish and an impressively thin and light chassis, making it an ideal companion for professionals on the move. Its construction feels solid, complemented by practical features like a near-flat hinge, a subtly lifting base for ergonomics, and impressively thin display bezels enhancing the immersive 16:10 screen. Performance for everyday business tasks is solid, even with the reviewed Intel Core Ultra 5 236V processor (base variant), backed by a remarkably fast KIOXIA NVMe SSD that ensures snappy responsiveness.

Dell's Pro 14 Premium would flirt with a higher score if it came with a better keyboard. As is—and at roughly $350 more than a ThinkPad X1 Carbon with an 1800p OLED to the Dell's 1200p IPS screen—it must settle for four stars and a thumbs up. This is Dell's best business laptop yet, but the Carbon is the best laptop in the world.

If this machine was still called a Latitude, would I have gone easier on it? Probably not. It has several problems, some of which involve the underlying hardware platform. I don’t think the Intel Core Ultra 200 series chips are great, as they sacrifice multitasking performance to achieve power efficiency without considering how people use these systems every day. But for light tasks, they’re good, and the battery life is exceptional. My biggest issue with the Dell Pro 14 Premium is the price being asked, for what isn’t anything special when you look at the construction, screen and very limited upgradability. Putting the words “Pro” and “Premium” in the name suggests a design, build and performance level that this hardware doesn’t deliver. The cost that Dell is asking is just adding insult to injury.

Intel Arc 140V: A pretty fast integrated graphics adapter that higher-end Intel Lunar Lake family processors employ. This is a direct successor to the Arc 8; it can drive three SUHD 4320p monitors simultaneously via HDMI 2.1, eDP 1.5 and DP 2.1. With the 140V, all 2023 and 2024 games are playable at 1080p on low graphics settings.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.
» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
Core Ultra 7 268V: A higher-end Lunar Lake family processor. It sports 4 new Skymont E-cores and 4 new Lion Cove P-cores running at up to 3.7 GHz and 5.0 GHz respectively, along with the new Arc 140V iGPU and 32 GB of on-package LPDDR5x-8533 RAM. It should be about as fast as the Core Ultra 7 165U and Core i7-1360P in multi-threaded workloads and it eats up to 37 W when under short-term workloads.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
