Unified product lines Grey box shifter, Dell has killed off its XPS branding, marking the end of an error for the iconic clamshell ultralight laptops, 2-in-1 devices, and desktops that have become a staple for many users.

Inspiron, XPS, and other Dell brands are going the way of the dinosaur it seems as the new Dell, Dell Pro, and Pro Max take their place.

On the consumer side, the Dell 14 and 16 Plus (along with their 2-in-1 versions) look like typical mainstream Dell laptops. The Dell Premium systems, formerly XPS, look completely unchanged from last year. (I've heard that we likely won't see any big changes for that lineup until next year.)

Dell also isn’t doing away with the Alienware sub-brand, which it purchased in 2006. Alienware gaming models will, apparently, keep their specific names, such as “Area 51” and “m16.” Monitor names seem to be unaffected, too, so the “UltraSharp” line will still exist.
