DELL Precision 5530 2-in-1 Laptop i7-8706G 16GB 2TB 15.6 FHD

Precision 5530 convertible workstation

The Dell Precision 5530 is a 15.6-inch 2-in-1 laptop built on an Intel Core i7-8706G processor with four cores and eight threads. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory and a 2 TB NVMe SSD. The 1920 x 1080 InfinityEdge touchscreen covers 72 percent color gamut and supports pen input in tablet, tent or stand modes. Windows 10 Pro comes pre-installed.

Suited for mobile creators needing ISV-certified

Engineers, designers and analysts who rely on certified drivers for CAD, simulation or video editing will benefit from the dedicated AMD Radeon Pro WX Vega M GL with 4 GB of GDDR5 memory. The convertible hinge and touchscreen aid client presentations and markup workflows. Buyers who want more storage or user-upgradeable memory should look elsewhere because the 16 GB configuration is soldered and the single M.2 slot is already occupied.

Two Thunderbolt 3 ports handle docks.

A 65-watt adapter powers the system while the Thunderbolt 3 and USB-C 3.1 ports share PowerShare, DisplayPort and charging duties. An HDMI 2.0 output adds a second external monitor without a dock. The 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth combo handles wireless peripherals. The fixed memory and storage mean the chassis does not need to be opened for upgrades, freeing internal space for battery and cooling.
