Dell Malaysia has unveiled a suite of new commercial client solutions laptops designed to address the myriad ways people work today, and help them adapt and transition to the future. The innovations and improvements within these products are designed to improve performance, functionality and overall user experience.
“At Dell, innovation never sleeps. We’re passionate about creating technology that expands the boundaries of what’s possible,” said KT Ong, Country Manager – Malaysia, Dell EMC.
The new Vostro and refreshed Latitude portfolio are developed with the mobile workforce in mind, aligned with insights from various research studies sponsored by Dell. The latest global research shared the impact of emerging technologies – 48% of global business leaders surveyed, including leaders in Asia Pacific and Japan (APJ), believe they’ll have more job satisfaction in the future by offloading tasks to machines. Thus, businesses and the workforce of today are increasingly critical about devices they need to support their work, now and into the future.
“We are entering the future of work where the way people work and run their businesses constantly change as technology continues to evolve. There is significant expectation riding on the positive impact emerging technologies can bring,” commented Ong. “To do that, our customers want devices that can help them continue to be productive today and help them persevere for the future, with performance, mobility and security mentioned as the top features they need.”
Addressing a gap in the marketplace for thinner, lighter and more powerful mobile devices at work, Dell unveiled the new Vostro line-up and refreshed Latitude portfolio.
