Both the Dell Pro P USB-C Webcam Monitor (P3426WEV) and Pro P USB-C Conferencing Monitor (P3426WEB) are curved 34-inch ultrawides with 3440 x 1440 resolution, 100Hz refresh, KVM, and 5-megapixel Sony Starvis sensors with auto framing.

Thanks to supercapacitors both accessories will be ready for a full day’s work faster than it takes you to yawn, while a full 5-minute charge will power the Dell Pro 7 keyboard for three months and the mouse for up to 1.5. Pricing isn’t known, but both are expected to ship on April 16th.

Now that Dell has brought back XPS, it’s Precision’s turn. Dell is announcing new Pro Precision 5 and Pro Precision 7 laptops to replace the iPhone-sounding Dell Pro Max. They’ll come in 14- and 16-inch sizes with Intel Panther Lake CPUs and optional Nvidia Pro Blackwell GPUs. Most models are expected in May, though pricing is TBD.

The president applauded Michael and Susan Dell for their $6.25 billion contribution that the White House says will help fund tax-advantaged savings accounts for children. The contribution is set to fund an extra $250 in the first 25 million accounts for children in ZIP codes with median incomes under $150,000.

Dell reversed course on its confusing naming scheme from 2025, but some of it’s intact — with new tweaks. The returning XPS laptops are still joined by entry-level vanilla “Dell” models. Enterprise-focused Dell Pro laptops are now topped by Dell Pro Precision models instead of the Apple-y sounding Pro Max.

Remember when Dell made the baffling decision last January to ditch its awesome XPS brand for the utterly milquetoast “Dell Pro” and “Dell Pro Max” instead? After just one year, VideoCardz’ sources report, XPS laptops are coming back. Dell will reportedly announce them at CES 2026 next week.

I asked Jeff Clarke how Dell is navigating the ongoing memory shortage and he said the company is, “Advocating that we should get the parts we asked for.”

Along with pro-AI, pro-pollution, and pro-surveillance plans, the spending bill signed in July introduced investment accounts for children with $1,000 contributed for US citizens born from 2025 through 2028. Today, Michael and Susan Dell announced they would also contribute:

There was some concern that Trump’s tariffs would impact the attractive price that Dell announced for its Alienware 27 280Hz QD-OLED gaming monitor earlier this year, but it’s now launched unscathed. A smaller 25-inch 320Hz monitor is also available for $249 if you don’t mind switching the OLED panel for an IPS display.

Dell is putting Qualcomm Cloud AI 100 chips into its high-end Pro Max Plus laptops, capable of up to 350 TOPS. That’s about nine times more TOPS than a consumer-grade Copilot Plus PC, reserved for professionals who need to run hefty AI models locally.

Dell just killed off XPS, but its new “Pro” laptops pull a neat trick: most USB-C ports and batteries are now officially user-replaceable.
