Named brands like XPS and Inspiron will now fall under performance categories. Plus, Dell expanded its partnership with AMD.

The Dell, Dell Plus and Dell Premium series comprise the company's consumer models that were previously labeled as either Inspiron or XPS. The Dell Pro series replaces the Latitud

LAS VEGAS, NV — Just ahead of the 2025 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the company said decades-old names for PCs such as XPS and Inspiron are going away. A more simplified branding approach will be taking their place featuring three tiers: Dell, Dell Pro, and Dell Pro Max.

This rework marks a major shakeup for Dell's PC naming schema, which has used the Inspiron, XPS, Latitude, and Precision monikers since the 1990s. In consolidating its branding, Dell hopes to make it easier for consumers to figure out which device will best match their needs, streamlining the oft-complicated experience of buying a PC.

No more XPS, Inspiron, Latitude? Yep. Dell is eliminating its well-known PC family names across its laptop and desktop PC stacks, aiming to simplify what's what for new customers.

So long XPS, au revoir Inspiron, later, Latitude. Dell is officially giving its existing PC brands the boot at CES 2025 and moving to terms that normal people will actually understand: Dell, Dell Pro and Dell Pro Max.

The Dell XPS, Latitude, and Precision will now be know as the Dell, Dell Pro, and Dell Pro Max.

It's CES 2025, which means that we're getting almost inundated by tech news after the brief lull brought by the holiday period, but few announcements have felt as seismic as the one that Dell just made.

The PC manufacturer’s new laptops, desktops, and monitors will have a simplified naming scheme with labels like ‘Pro’ and ‘Max.’

Dell's rebranding of its PC and other devices is meant to simplify things, but has it created more confusion? These laptops show how Dell's new names can get tricky quickly.
