Dell has finally released its latest lightweight 14-inch workstation laptop. Available globally, the Pro Precision 5 Series 14S can be configured with AMD Ryzen AI 400 or Intel Panther Lake processors. The latter variant supports up to 64 GB LPDCAMM2 RAM with Arc B390 graphics too.

Dell has just started selling the Pro Precision 5 Series 14 globally. As we have covered separately, the new 14-inch laptop combines Intel's Panther Lake platform with LPCAMM2 and Ubuntu Linux support out of the box.

However, the Pro Precision 5 Series 14 is comparatively heavy for a 14-inch laptop at over 1.8 kg. For context, gaming laptops like the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 and Razer Blade 14 (2025) weigh less than the Pro Precision 5 Series 14, as does Apple's MacBook Pro 14 that we reviewed at the end of 2025 (curr. $1,499 on Amazon).

For those after a more lightweight alternative, Dell is now selling the Pro Precision 5 Series 14S too. To recap, Dell claimed that the Pro Precision 5 Series 14S is its 'thinnest and lightest' mobile workstation when unveiling the laptop in March 2026.

Practically speaking, the Pro Precision 5 Series 14S starts at 1.4 kg with AMD Ryzen AI 400 processors and is 10.8~19.1 mm thick. While Intel Panther Lake alternatives are just as thick, they start at 200 g heavier than their AMD counterparts. The pair share the same ports though, albeit Thunderbolt 4 for Intel models and USB4 for AMD models.

All variants can be configured with up to a 120 Hz, 500-nit and QHD+ IPS display too. Although an OLED alternative is available, it is an FHD+ panel with a 60 Hz refresh rate and 300 nits peak brightness. Setting that aside, the Pro Precision 5 Series 14S can also be configured with 57 Wh or 70 Wh batteries, including dedicated Long Lifecycle variants.

The Pro Precision 5 Series 14 starts at around $2,400/£1,700/€1,945 with a Core Ultra 5 336H vPro, 16 GB of LPCAMM2 RAM, a 256 GB SSD and an FHD+ display with 45% NTSC colour space coverage. Intel variants can be configued with up to 64 GB LPCAMM2 RAM, 2 TB of PCIe Gen 5 storage and a Core Ultra X9 388H vPro featuring Arc B390 graphics.

Meanwhile, AMD variants start at just over $2,200/£1,600/€1,800 with soldered LPDDR5X RAM, 256 GB of storage, the same display and a Ryzen AI 5 Pro 435 processor. Configuration options go up to the Ryzen AI 9 HX Pro 470, 64 GB of RAM and 2 TB of PCIe Gen 5 storage for AMD models. Please see Dell's website for more information.
