The Dell Pro Max 14/16 Premium laptops combine mobility, style and performance, offering modern design with advanced functionality. These are the most design-forward models in our line-up, built for those who value both aesthetics and performance.

With the world's smallest footprint of 14- and 16-inch mobile workstations,[2] you can take your creative studio anywhere – designing, editing and innovating wherever inspiration strikes. The sleek and refined design offers the world’s first 4K Tandem OLED display on mobile workstations (on the 16-inch).[3] Perfect for creating, collaborating and showcasing projects, the display brings content to life with sharp, dynamic clarity. The VESA DisplayHDR TrueBlack 1000 certification provides exceptionally deep blacks for stunning visuals. Whether presenting creative concepts or collaborating on engineering plans, every detail shines on-screen.

Even with the portable design, performance remains non-negotiable. Built on NVIDIA RTX™ PRO 3000 Blackwell Laptop GPUs and up to 45W Intel® Core™ Ultra 9 285H processors, these laptops provide a significant 19% and 23% boost in graphics performance over the previous generation on the 14- and 16-inch models, respectively.[4] If you're editing video or crunching a data analysis, every task runs effortlessly.
