Dell releases new 16-inch laptop with 64 GB LPCAMM2 RAM and Nvidia graphics

Dell is now selling the Pro Precision 5 Series 16 globally. Heavier than the competing Pro Precision 5 Series 16S at 2.16 kg, the Pro Precision 5 Series 16 can be configured with optional Nvidia graphics, unlike its more lightweight sibling. For reference, the Pro Precision 5 Series 16 is about as heavy as the MacBook Pro 16 we reviewed earlier this year with an M5 Pro chipset (curr. $2,526 on Amazon).
Currently, the Pro Precision 5 Series 16 can be configured with up to a Core Ultra 9 386H vPro processor and 64 GB of user-replaceable LPCAMM2 RAM running at 8,533 MT/s. Also, Dell sells Nvidia RTX Pro 500 Blackwell (6 GB), RTX Pro 1000 Blackwell (8 GB) and RTX Pro 2000 Blackwell (8 GB) discrete GPUs. Only 400-nit IPS displays are available though, either with FHD+ or QHD+ resolutions.
The Pro Precision 5 Series 16 starts at $2,722 in the US with a Core Ultra 5 336H vPro, 16 GB of LPCAMM2 RAM and a 256 GB SSD. By contrast, the same laptop costs £2,247 in the UK and €2,549 in the Eurozone. These markets have received the Core Ultra 7 366H as their starting processor option, though.
By default, the 16-inch workstation ships with a 64 Wh battery. However, Dell also offers a 96 Wh battery and a dedicated Long Life Cycle variant for each capacity. Moreover, a Smart Card Reader can be configured, as can an additional PCIe Gen 4 or PCIe Gen 5 SSD and 5G cellular connectivity. Please see Dell's website for more details.
