Packaging, A Closer Look Part I

The Dell Venue 11 Pro is one of the latest convertibles from the company, which proposes to replace both ultrabook and tablet functionality with a single device. In order for the Venue 11 Pro to attain “ultrabook” status, it would need purchasing additional accessories like a keyboard dock. This tablet is equipped with the Intel Core M-5Y71 Processor on 14nm, with is a dual-core part with enabled Hyperthreading; the TDP of this processor is configurable between 3.5W and 6W, comes with Intel HD Graphics 5300 for delivering better 3D performances than the previous gen and in order to be able to run multiple applications at once, Dell has equipped the product with 8GB of RAM. The tablet also comes with a 256GB SSD on which we have pre-installed Windows 8.1 Pro, ready to be integrated inside a domain.

The power adapter comes with the manufacturer logo printed on it and in front we can also spot a small white activity LED:

 

 

 

On its back, we can read that this adapter is rated at 24W:
