Following its initial debut at CES in January, Dell has launched the Latitude 7285, the first 2-in-1 tablet with wireless charging. The device is now available directly from Dell starting at $1,199.
The biggest draw of the Latitude 7285 is its wireless charging. The feature relies on magnetic resonance tech developed by WiTricity, which enables wireless charging through a combination of the device's detachable keyboard and a charging mat. Just place the Latitude 7285 and keyboard on the mat, and it will begin charging.
The device itself is powered by Intel's latest 7th-generation Kaby Lake processors and either 8GB or 16GB of RAM. Storage options are available in up to 512GB of SSD storage, though there's also a microSD card slot that you can use for more. The Latitude 7285 also packs in a 12-inch 2880x1920 IGZO display, and it is even Windows Hello-compatible with a built-in IR camera.
You can order the Latitude 7285 at Dell, along with the optional keyboard, directly from Dell starting at $1,199 now.

Dell's Latitude 7285 2-in-1 with wireless charging is now available
slick
Looks pretty good - ? how is the screen wobble going to be - it was a deal breaker on the Surface Book for me. Also, does it have a pen?
nice
This is a really compelling set of features, and the price is not bad either.
kudo to Dell!
Great there using wireless charging. But i can't wait for the day to come when wireless charging means just being the immediate are and your device will start to charge up.
That's is called Tesla charging!
Is that a thing that will come to consumer devices you think?
No he means Nikola Tesla and his inventions. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_coil#Resonant_transformer
Only if government releases his confiscated technical papers.
Well darn lol. Maybe one day.
Be careful, your tinfoil hat may interfere with the wireless charging
Who?
Test
Y-series CPUs. Yuck.
Nice to see OEM innovating with the form factor. Yeah Asus pushed the 2/1 first with the Transformer, but the Surface really got the OEM off their ass.
Couldn't they have given it a better name?
I'm curious of the battery life. I have the Dell 7275 w/ the 4k screen, m5, 8GB RAM, 256GB hardrive and the battery life is very much so so. I would have perferred a bit more thinkness with bigger battery.
I did get a great deal on their refrubished site so at $621 (w/ coupon) I can't complain. Love the screen.
Looks very sexy. As others have mentioned, how big is the screenwobble? Also, is this laptop 2-in-1 coming with a touch screen? I see it operates with a pen but that does not mean it also supports finger touch; I at least cannot find anything in the product specifications.
I am very intrigued.
