Dell 14 Premium
Dell's 14 Premium (DA14250) is the 2025 successor to the XPS 14, with Intel Core Ultra 7 255H or 265H chips, Arc 140T graphics or an optional RTX 4050, and a 14.5-inch 2K LCD or 3.2K OLED in an 18mm aluminum body. Specs here are for the Core Ultra 7 255H, 32GB, 1TB model with the OLED touchscreen; it launched in the US from $1,649.99.
Pros
- 14.5-inch 3.2K (3200x2000) OLED touchscreen with 48-120Hz adaptive refresh, rated at 400 nits, with Dell claiming 100% DCI-P3 coverage
- Three Thunderbolt 4 ports with Power Delivery and DisplayPort, a microSD slot and a 3.5mm combo jack in an 18mm chassis that starts at 1.72kg with the OLED panel
- Core Ultra 7 255H scored about 2,712 single-core and 14,719 multi-core in Geekbench 6.7 in review testing of this configuration
- Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4, a 1080p IR webcam for Windows Hello face sign-in and a fingerprint reader
- Optional GeForce RTX 4050 and up to 64GB of LPDDR5X for heavier creative work
Cons
- Launch price starts at $1,649.99, and the reviewed 32GB/1TB OLED configuration was $2,049.99 at Dell and $2,099.99 at Best Buy
- The touch-sensitive function row replaces physical keys and was hard to see and use in review, and the touchpad has no visible edges
- Integrated Arc graphics handle casual games, but newer demanding titles were unplayable in review; the only discrete option is the RTX 4050, with no RTX 50-series choice
- There is no USB-A or HDMI port: the ports are three Thunderbolt 4, a microSD slot and a headphone/microphone jack
