The new Dell Inspiron 16 Plus is targeted at content creators and offers powerful specs that include the new Intel Tiger Lake-H processors combined with Nvidia’s mobile Ampere dGPU solutions plus high-quality displays and a robust thermal system.
Content creators can now take advantage of the latest 16-inch 3K (3072 x 1920) displays with 16:10 aspect ratio, which enlarge the active area of the screen by 11% while only increasing the dimension of the device 5% vs. the previous 15” generation. The high-quality panels feature 10-bit color depth , 1000:1 contrast ratio, 100% sRGB color coverage, and 300 nit brightness.
Dell does not specify the exact CPU options, but we can safely assume that at least the i7 Tiger Lake-H processors will be included. As for the robust cooling system and the top dGPU options, Dell mentions that configurations with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 graphics boast 3 fans and 5 heat pipes while all other configurations employ 2 fans and 3 heat pipes. All configurations feature 4 vents.
RAM capacities range up to 32 GB DDR4-3200 and can be easily upgraded thanks to the dual slot feature. There is only one M.2 PCIe NVMe slot that supports SSDs with up to 2 TB capacities. Port selection includes 1x Thunderbolt 4 and 2x USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 connectors, HDMI 2.0b video output, SD card reader and a combo audio jack.
