Dell Technologies Boosts Business Productivity and Readiness with AI PCs in the UAE
Earlier this year at CES, Dell Technologies unveiled an impressive range of AI-powered PCs designed to transform both personal and professional computing. Now available in the UAE, this cutting-edge portfolio includes sleek laptops, high-performance workstations, and adaptable desktops, all designed to drive collaboration and enhance productivity. Dell has introduced three simple product categories to simplify customer choice based on core business needs: · Dell: Designed for play, school and work. · Dell Pro: Designed for professional grade productivity. · Dell Pro Max: Designed for maximum performance. Dell has also made it easy to distinguish products within each of the new product categories, with a consistent approach to tiering that lets customers pinpoint the exact device for their specific needs. Above and beyond the starting point (Base), there's a Plus tier that offers the most scalable performance and a Premium tier that delivers the ultimate in mobility and design. In addition, as the AI PC market evolves and businesses prepare for the end of support for Windows 10 in October 2025, the importance of AI in modern organizations has been highlighted by its rapid adoption rate, with over 70%1 of businesses already incorporating GenAI into their workflows. 'Technology is advancing at an unprecedented pace, and staying ahead is essential for businesses looking to sharpen their competitive edge. With Generative and Agentic AI becoming board-level priorities, and data inferencing shifting closer to the edge, the PC is once again at the center of productivity and innovation. The upcoming end of support for Windows 10 and the shift to Windows 11 mark a pivotal opportunity for organizations to modernize their workplace with future-ready solutions. Dell's cutting-edge portfolio of AI-powered PCs is purpose-built to boost performance, enhance security, and help businesses confidently seize the opportunities of tomorrow,' said Haidi Nossair, Senior Director, Client Solutions Group, META at Dell Technologies. Dell: PCs Ideal for Multitaskers Dell launched four new Copilot+ devices from the Plus tier, which introduces the most scalable Dell PCs with a balance between versatility and productivity. With a brand-new design, the devices are powered by Intel® Core™ Ultra (Series 2, V SKUs) processors and offer up to 39% longer battery life, up to 14% thinner modern profile and provide on-device AI to boost efficiency. The Dell portfolio is now expanded to include not only Snapdragon® X Series processor but also AMD options. Dell will also introduce new devices in the base tier, which offers everyday devices that provide effortless use and practical design, and the Premium tier, which continues the XPS legacy loved by consumers and prosumers alike. Dell Pro: Timeless Design and Quiet Productivity The new Dell Pro laptop portfolio brings a fresh, clean and timeless look for the business professional. These PCs are some of the smallest and lightest laptops in their class, featuring durable and reliable materials designed to handle the demands of a busy workday. In fact, they withstand three times as many hinge cycles, drops and bumps from regular use as competitor devices helping ensure they stand up to the rigors of daily use. The Dell Pro lineup includes Intel® Core™ Ultra (Series 2, V and U SKUs) and AMD Ryzen™ processor options, featuring an NPU, CPU and GPU. They offer exceptional battery life, powerful on-device AI, Copilot+ PC experiences and dependable productivity in the office, at home or anywhere in between. The Dell Pro 14 Premium will also be the first commercial notebook with a Tandem OLED display. It's 24% more power efficient and 49% lighter than traditional OLED displays while offering bright and vibrant color for editing presentations or taking conference calls. Dell Pro Premium features 90% recycled magnesium in the chassis for an elegant, light and long-lasting experience. Dell Pro Max: Performance in Versatility Designed for demanding applications, the new Dell Pro Max portfolio offers a range of high-performance PCs. The Dell Pro Max with GB10 and Dell Pro Max with GB300, at the top end of the high-performance PC range, packs exceptional performance in a compact and power-efficient form factor. In a category where performance is key, the new portfolio features greater performance generation-over-generation through Dell's new, patented thermal design. The devices include Intel® Core™ Ultra (Series 2, U SKUs) and AMD Ryzen and AMD Threadripper processor options and professional graphics. Users can power intensive workloads, from animation to video rendering, run AI inferencing and fine-tune large language models (LLMs), while maintaining security and managing costs. Rooted in Sustainable Design Building on Dell's circular innovation leadership, the new portfolio focuses on innovative modular design and the increased use of recycled, low emissions and renewable materials in products and packaging. Dell Pro and select Dell Pro Max are the world's first commercial notebooks built with a modular USB-C port. New technology innovations in battery chemistry also allow the new Dell Pro and Dell Pro Plus batteries to use up to 80% less cobalt and reduce dependence on critical minerals. A Seamless Ecosystem Built for Performance and Well-being From desktops and laptops to displays, the Dell product ecosystem is engineered to seamlessly connect tools, boost productivity, and enrich everyday experiences for users everywhere. Reflecting Dell's commitment to innovation, user well-being, and environmental responsibility, the product displays are designed to enhance customers' experience. With advanced low blue light technology, they help reduce eye strain—ideal for long workdays, creative projects, or immersive gaming sessions. To further streamline the user experience and simplify device management, the Dell ecosystem is unified through a powerful and intuitive interface. With Dell Display Peripheral Manager (DDPM) and Dell Client Device Management (DCDM), users can control all connected devices from one convenient platform. This seamless integration enables effortless adjustment of settings, performance monitoring, and workflow optimization.

Why Keeping IT Hardware Up to Date Matters – And How an MSP in London Can Help
In today's fast-moving digital landscape, keeping business hardware up to date is more than just a matter of performance—it's essential for security, compatibility, and productivity. As systems age, they become more vulnerable to threats, harder to support, and increasingly incompatible with modern software and services. That's where a Managed Service Provider (MSP) comes in. Working with a reliable MSP in London ensures your business infrastructure remains fit for purpose, secure, and future-ready. With major changes on the horizon—such as Microsoft's upcoming end-of-life for Windows 10—it's more important than ever to have the right support and insight when making IT decisions. A Managed Service Provider doesn't just step in when things go wrong. They're a strategic partner, helping businesses take a proactive approach to IT. This includes monitoring systems, applying updates, and providing expert advice on when to replace ageing hardware. From servers and switches to laptops and desktops, every piece of hardware has a natural lifecycle. Over time, performance declines, compatibility becomes an issue, and manufacturers stop providing firmware or driver updates. An MSP can: Track warranty and support statuses Identify bottlenecks or ageing components Recommend hardware refresh cycles Coordinate replacements and data migrations Ensure new devices are fully secured and integrated By working with an MSP in London, local businesses benefit from hands-on, expert guidance without needing to maintain large in-house IT teams. This ensures that IT investments are made wisely and at the right time, avoiding costly surprises down the line. One of the most pressing hardware and software challenges facing businesses today is the upcoming end-of-life for Windows 10. Microsoft has announced that support for Windows 10 will officially end on 14th October 2025. While this may sound far off, the reality is that preparations should begin now. It means Microsoft will no longer provide: Security updates or patches Bug fixes Technical support Without these essential updates, systems running Windows 10 will become increasingly vulnerable to security threats, compliance issues, and software incompatibility. Businesses still operating on this platform need to start planning for a transition to Windows 11 or consider other secure operating environments. One of the complications with this transition is that not all existing hardware will support Windows 11. Microsoft has implemented stricter requirements for the newer operating system, including: TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module) Secure Boot capability Compatible 64-bit processors (e.g., 8th Gen Intel or newer) Many older machines, even those performing well today, will not meet these requirements. That means businesses may need to budget for hardware upgrades sooner than expected. This is where the right Managed Service Provider proves invaluable. An experienced MSP in London can carry out an assessment of your current IT infrastructure and help you understand: Which devices are compatible with Windows 11 Which systems need upgrades or replacements Where data and software dependencies lie How to manage costs and minimise downtime Full audit of existing devices Compatibility reports and risk assessments Procurement and installation of new hardware Secure data migration Staff onboarding and support post-upgrade Whether you're a small business with ten employees or a growing enterprise with multiple sites, an MSP makes complex transitions smoother, smarter, and more cost-effective. Beyond operating system upgrades, having a plan for regular hardware refreshes is essential to keep your IT environment reliable and responsive. Technology moves fast, and keeping pace ensures your team can work without frustration or delays. An effective hardware lifecycle plan often includes: Three to five-year refresh cycles Device performance benchmarks Power efficiency considerations Enhanced remote management capabilities Modern IT isn't just about keeping things running—it's about enabling growth, protecting data, and ensuring regulatory compliance. A forward-looking Managed Service Provider ensures that your infrastructure supports business goals rather than becoming a burden. TIME BUSINESS NEWS

Lenovo IdeaPad laptop praised for everyday use and affordable price
This Windows laptop will make school or homework a breeze, with a tasty discount too Choosing a new laptop can be tricky when there are so many out there. The first step is deciding what you're going to use it for and the second is often how much you want to spend. If you're looking for an affordable laptop for school or homework, or light computing, then this Lenovo IdeaPad is worth considering. It runs Windows 11 and has a 15-inch display, so there's plenty of space to work, while it's not too heavy if you need to port it around with you. Speaking of ports, it's well connected too, featuring a couple of USB-A, USB-C, HDMI and a microSD card slot. There's also over 30% off the price, meaning you can get this Lenovo laptop for £189.99 on Amazon, saving yourself nearly £100. This isn't the most powerful laptop out there, but at this price you shouldn't expect to get the latest gaming machine. What this laptop will be good at is daily tasks like browsing, word processing and handling your emails. It's powered by an Intel Pentium chip with 4GB RAM - and 128GB of storage. The display is 15.6-inches on the diagonal, and because it's large, there's plenty of space for the keyboard and number pad, so you won't feel like the keyboard is cramped. Lenovo also does great keyboards on its laptops - I use one myself. If you don't think that the Intel laptop will have enough power, there's also a Ryzen 5 version that's also discounted to £339 on Amazon, saving over £210. The Ryzen 5 is much more powerful, so better suited to those who want to create content. If the Lenovo isn't what you're looking for, then the Acer 315 on Argos offers a price under £200 and is a Chromebook, so basic tasks might run a little smoother, especially if you're browsing and using Google Docs. The battery life of the IdeaPad 1 is around 10 hours so that will get you through the day without having to worry about finding a plug socket. The display on this 15.6-inch laptop offers a full HD resolution (1920 x 1080 pixels), so it will have plenty of detail, although at this price it's a fairly basic display, so it's not as bright or as vibrant as you'll find on more expensive laptops. Shoppers on Amazon have praised the Lenovo IdeaPad, saying "Very good laptop for the price would recommend highly" and "As a basic laptop to use for Microsoft tools, such as Teams & Word, it's amazing!" Some buyers have called out the lack of power however, commenting "It is useless for anything other than basic web browsing" and "This laptop is very slow". If that's the case and something that worries you, then moving from the Intel Pentium version to the slightly more expensive Ryzen 3 or Ryzen 5 models might be worth considering.
