Know about two Xtreme laptops from Dell, which are truly Rugged!

Dell, on its mission to do something different, this time has actually broken the record. It’s linked with the release of its two new rugged Latitude laptops.

Dell, recently wearing its fancy coat and gloves, unveiled the first look of its soon to be released Latitude Rugged Extreme laptops duo. If still not amazed, then you will be now, as Dell demonstrated these laptops in not usual conditions, but in an ice bar where temperatures were five degree below the freezing point. The bar was specially crafted from ice blocks to demonstrate how these machines can function even in temperature extremities, whether of hot or cold.

The new rugged laptops which Dell displayed were the Latitude 14 Rugged Extreme and its smaller cousin as Latitude 12 Rugged Extreme. Both these from Dell feature a chunky, armored cover which resembles a rugged design; also a blend of reinforced construction has been used. The sealed vents and port covers help in meeting the MIL-STD 810G standards that help in withstanding vibration, shocks, temperature and latitude extremes, radiation, saltwater, fog and many other unfriendly and uncommon circumstances.

Inside the Dell Latitude 14 Rugged Extreme you can find any of these processors like Intel Core i3, i5 or i7 dual-core alongside optional discrete Nvidia graphics. The other machine, which is Dell Latitude 12 Rugged Extreme, also packs Intel Core i3, i5 or i7 processors, with embedded graphics. The temperature on these laptops is kept under control via special waterproof fan system to ensure better cooling, meanwhile there are no compromises made on the protection against dust or moisture.

Both the Dell laptops pack an enhanced daylight viewing display feature. Dell, instead of just cranking the backlight to improve visibility, which leads to shortened battery life, has worked to decrease the display reflectivity, and new layers and coating materials have been layered to boost display.

Night visibility has also been enhanced with the backlit keyboard which comes with an adjustable RBG-colored backlighting, a technology that has already been used on the Alienware laptop series of Dell. The freedom to adjust backlight color helps in making the machine more suited to the existing circumstances. The use of red or yellow backlight helps to preserve the night vision of users. In addition, the blue backlight helps in reducing visibility to those ogling eyes and white encounters for maximum readability even in dim light conditions.

Both Latitude 14 and Latitude 12 come with touch-screen capabilities with Windows 8.1. But, instead of a common capacitive touch display used on most products these days, both Latitude use resistive touch, which works even when wearing regular gloves. To add more to user experience are optional features like Wireless LAN, GPS and mobile broadband with attachments like tethered or handle stylus.

Latitude 12 Rugged Extreme taking a slice of the Dell XPS 12, which was the flip and flop hinge version, the 12 inch rugged laptop can easily convert into a 12 inch rugged tablet as well. The pivoting display is created with sturdier locking mechanisms and stronger hinges, keeping the basic functionality same however.

The Dell Latitude Rugged Extreme in both, 12 and 14 inch versions are created for compatibility with a single new dock. This feature can help companies buy a combination of the two models without feeling worried about which system to use with which dock. Dell, meanwhile, is planning to release its future models with similar dock compatibility, which will help in easier equipment replacements and upgrades.

If worried about the availability or price of these two Xtreme machines from Dell, nothing on this front has been officially revealed, as for now.
