Dell has unveiled a new addition to its laptop family ahead of CES 2021, which will be held in virtual format this year. The new Latitude 9420 and 9520 models are equipped with SafeShutter to help users feel more secure when working remotely or learning remotely.
For the first time in the industry, Dell says new laptops feature an automatic webcam shutter that can be opened or closed to sync with video conferencing applications. You no longer need to stick tape on your laptop camera when you are not on a conference call to protect yourself from possible use by hackers to monitor you. In addition, the new 9000 series notebooks are equipped with mute and mute buttons.
It is reported that the new models will also feature 11th Gen Intel Core vPro processors. Details are scarce for the Latitude 9520, but the Latitude 9420 has more enhancements for working remotely from home. It received better quality than its predecessors, built-in speakers, and an improved webcam that automatically corrects light and background blur. The new 9000 series models will be offered in both traditional form factor and 2-in-1 configurations, with the latter having optional support for 5G or 4G LTE and eSIM. The Latitude 9420 laptop will go on sale in the spring at a price of $ 1949, and the cost and release date of the Dell Latitude 9520 will be announced this spring.

The new Latitude 5420 and Precision 3560 laptops will be available on January 12, starting at $ 1,049 and $ 1189, respectively.
