HIGHLIGHTS

Dell has introduced new Precision 7670, 7770, and Latitude 9330 laptops.

Dell Precision 7000-series laptops are the first with CAMM RAM.

These new Dell laptops are powered by 12th gen Intel processors.

Dell has announced the Latitude 9330 and Precision 7670 and 7770 laptops. The Latitude 9330 is the first 13-inch machine in the Latitude 9000 series and apparently the thinnest of the Latitude portfolio with a 16:10 display. As for the Precision laptops, they are the first to feature the CAMM memory. In the past few days, Dell has been facing ire for its patented DDR5 memory form factor called CAMM (Compression Attached Memory Module). The company has clarified what this CAMM module means and we'll get more into it in a bit. More importantly, let’s take a look at the new Precision and Latitude laptops.

CAMM stands for Compression Attached Memory Module. About this new patented tech, Dell says, “Through CAMM, Dell is enabling a thinner chassis design without sacrificing performance—perfect for hybrid professionals. With repair a key component of our commitment to helping reduce waste and extend the life of products and materials, the CAMM module also makes the memory more accessible for field repair. Initially launching with CAMM, the Precision 7000 series will also be available with traditional SODIMM options soon afterwards.”

In an interview with PCWorld, Dell tells that CAMM is not "proprietary" but rather a standard and will be applied through JEDEC. And while the concerns about it being patented were raised, the company says "it's too early to discuss royalties". So for now it points at the aforesaid benefits of CAMM and the likely upgradeability of the Precision laptops with SO-DIMM modules.

CAMM aside, the company also claims the new Dell Precision laptops are armed with security elements to help prevent device tampering and intrusion. The laptops will be available with Windows 11 Home, Professional, or Enterprise software options.

The repertoire also consists of 2x Thunderbolt 4 ports, 1x USB-C port, 2x USB-A ports (one of them supports PowerShare), 1x HDMI 2.1 port, and 1x ethernet port, 1x 3.5mm audio jack, WiFi 6E, and Bluetooth 5.2. 

Both Precision laptops will be hitting the stores in June 2022 and the pricing details will be revealed close to the shipping date. Meanwhile, the Latitude laptop will be arriving in Q2, 2022 and the pricing situation is the same as above.
