Dell’s XPS 13 Line Up Gets an 11th Generation Intel Power Up

Leave a comment

Dell’s XPS line up has been the epitome of design prowess when it comes to thin and light laptops as well as 2-in-1s. The XPS 13 holds Dell’s crown in the space with feature sets tailored to people who want to be productive on the go while having a machine that is also durable and stylish. The XPS 13 was one of the first compact laptops to set the trend and has been championing the premium market space when it comes to thin and lights.

With Intel’s recent announcement of their new 11th generation processors, it comes as no surprise that the laptops are being refreshed with the latest and greatest; bringing better performance and battery life to Dell’s most popular laptops. The XPS 13 and 13 2-in-1 now boast upwards of 9 hours battery life with the XPS 13 getting as much as 19 hours.

The new Dell XPS 13 and XPS 13 2-in-1 maintain the lineup’s petite form factor while packing more processing power in the body. Both have offerings ranging from the new dual core Intel Core i3-1115G4 to the quad core Intel Core i7-1165G7 processors which pack a punch while sipping on battery power. The XPS 13 comes with an additional option for the more powerful Intel Core i7-1185G7. This is complemented with up to 32GB of on board RAM and up to 2TB of SSD memory for quick read and write on the XPS 13 while the 2-in-1 will only have a max of 1TB. The SSD should also allow you to boot into Windows within 10 seconds. Of course, being powered by the 11th Generation Intel processors, the laptops also come with the option for Intel’s new Xe graphics platform. The new graphics platform is touted to give even better graphical performance compared to last generation’s Intel UHD. If the Xe isn’t your flavour, you’ll still be able to get options with Intel UHD graphics.

Both the new XPS 13 and 13 2-in-1 come with Dell’s InfinityEdge displays with options for 4K UHD+ and FHD+ resolutions. Both have options for Touch Displays. The displays come with 500-nit brightness and cover 100% of the sRGB colour gamut for better colour reproduction and are Dolby Vision certified. They also come with EyeSafe technology which reduces the blue light emitted by the panels to ensure that your eyes aren’t strained and your circadian rhythm is maintained.

Of course, the XPS 13 and 13 2-in-1 maintain their CNC machined aluminum body for extra rigidity and durability. They also have stereo speakers tuned by Waves MaxxAudio Pro and maintain their 3.5mm headphone jack. The laptops also come with Killer Wi-Fi 6 AX1650 modems which allow for more stable connectivity on the new Wi-Fi 6 standard (802.11ax) and support for Bluetooth 5.1. As always, the Dell XPS 13 and 13 2-in-1 come with 2 USB-C ports with Thunderbolt 4 support and a microSD card reader.

The Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 comes with a few extra perks. It has support for the Dell’s Active Pen which allows you to write on the laptop. The 13 2-in-1 also comes with support for the various different modes enabled by its hinge. It can be used in tablet mode with touch or stylus interactions or as a presentation display.

Pricing & Availability

The Dell XPS 13 will be available worldwide starting with the United States and Canada on the 1 October, 2020 with other countries following shortly thereafter. Prices will start at USD999.99 (MYR4,173.38) with specifications starting with the Intel Core i3.

The Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 will be available at the same time with prices starting at USD1,249.99 (MYR5,216.73). Specifications also start with the Intel Core i3.

INVITE Systems launches Huawei COLO data center amidst COVID-19

Leave a comment

BUCHAREST, Romania, Sept. 28, 2020 — The COVID-19 pandemic caused a sudden surge in demand for online services in Romania, from gaming and videos to live broadcasts. This threatened to overwhelm INVITE Systems’ platform capabilities and the company needed to quickly deploy a new data center to meet the burst requirements of enterprise customers specializing in games and videos. At last, INVITE Systems has selected Huawei, a leading global provider of information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure and smart devices, as a partner to help transform the space into a modern, highly reliable data center.

"By working with Huawei, INVITE Systems SRL was able to keep growing its business at a rapid pace despite the challenges of the pandemic. This provided positive support for the company’s profitability, giving us full confidence in the future of our company," said Alexandru Catrin, CIO of INVITE Systems SRL

Discover How Huawei Helped to Build a COLO Data Center

While, in the past, the planning and approval process for a new data center proved extremely time-consuming – involving multiple vendors designing and coordinating work for each subsystem, vastly increasing the complexity and time needed.

For its new data center, however, the only space INVITE Systems had available was the canteen. While the structure itself was sufficiently sturdy, space was limited and there were no raised floors. The company needed to fit as many Information Technology (IT) devices into the space as possible.

Easy Site Selection, Fast Deployment

Huawei’s intelligent FusionModule2000 solution, which is fully modularized and integrated, enables fast deployment. The device does not need to be installed on a raised floor, simplifying site selection in general and, in this particular case, overcoming the physical constraints of the canteen.

"Huawei FusionModule2000 shortened the rollout time of our new data center by more than two months, from preparation to installation and overall commissioning. Much to my surprise, deployment was completed in just one month, exceeding all our expectations."  Alex said.

Saving Space: SmartLi UPS

Huawei deployed a cutting-edge intelligent lithium battery solution – Huawei SmartLi Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) -the physical footprint is dramatically reduced, by 70%, compared to traditional lead-acid alternatives. This made it possible to leave the main area as a modular equipment room and ensuring sufficient space for expansion.

Founded in 2000, Romania’s INVITE Systems SRL has grown rapidly since 2005. Today, it stands as one of the country’s most important network service providers in the Virtual Private Network (VPN) field. And, as one of the first network service providers to introduce digital hosting services, INVITE Systems has also led the industry, not simply followed.

About Huawei

Huawei is a leading global provider of information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure and smart devices. With integrated solutions across four key domains – telecom networks, IT, smart devices, and cloud services – we are committed to bringing digital to every person, home and organization for a fully connected, intelligent world.

Huawei’s end-to-end portfolio of products, solutions and services are both competitive and secure. Through open collaboration with ecosystem partners, we create lasting value for our customers, working to empower people, enrich home life, and inspire innovation in organizations of all shapes and sizes.
