Dell has shaken up its Latitude series with a suite of new machines in time for CES 2025. Specifically, it has replaced Latitude laptops like the Latitude 5550 (curr. $1,199 on Amazon) with 'Dell Pro', which it further segregates into Pro, Pro Plus and Pro Premium variants. In short, we will only be dealing with the Pro Plus variants here, of which there are five split across three display sizes. Please see our Dell Pro and Dell Pro Premium launch articles for more details on these pair.
As for the Pro Plus series, Dell has decided to offer them with 13.3-inch, 14-inch and 16-inch 16:10 displays as the following:
- Dell Pro Plus PB13250
- Dell Pro Plus PB14250
- Dell Pro Plus PB16250
While these three display sizes sit within conventional laptops, there will also be 13.3-inch and 14-inch sizes that adopt a 2-in-1 form factor instead. Fundamentally, all variants feature aluminium chassis though, as well as optional cellular connectivity. On top of that, Dell plans to all SKUs with Intel Lunar Lake processors at launch.

As the screenshot below show though, these range will eventually be complemented by Core Ultra 200U series options based on Intel's Arrow Lake architecture. Please note that these Core Ultra 200U options will also be limited to slower DDR5-5600 RAM, some of which in single-channel mode. Incidentally, Dell has teased that AMD Ryzen APUs will be offered during the first half of the year too; the company has not shared any other details in this regard for now.
The Pro Plus series will be available from today in 14-inch and 16-inch sizes with Lunar Lake processors like the Core Ultra 5 226V and Core Ultra 7 268V. By contrast, the smaller Pro 13 Plus will not arrive with the same processors until February 25. Finally, Dell has hinted that all Core Ultra 200U-powered options will be held back until the end of March or early April. Unfortunately, the company has not confirmed pricing for any model yet.
