Dell Pro 7 14 AMD Review: Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 in a 2.8-Pound Busine…

Dell sent four Pro laptops this cycle, covering two sizes, two product tiers, and both AMD and Intel platforms. The AMD model reviewed here features the same 12-core, 24-thread Ryzen chip and 55 TOPS NPU as the Pro 5 16, but pairs it with 64GB of LPDDR5x-8533 memory, Radeon 890M graphics, a 1TB SSD, and a 14-inch WUXGA display. The Pro 7 14’s faster memory gives the Radeon 890M and local AI workloads an advantage over the Pro 5 16’s DDR5-5600, allowing the smaller laptop to lead the Blender tests, the AI Computer Vision GPU test, and all four AI text-generation workloads. Longer all-core workloads favor the larger Pro 5 16, which finishes Cinebench R23 multi-core 24% ahead with the same processor. Battery life reached 19 hours and 28 minutes, several hours beyond the Pro 5 16 but well short of the two Intel 14-inch systems. Our unit also had the slowest SSD of the four, with its Samsung BM9C1a trailing the Gen5 drives in the Intel laptops by a wide margin. AMD PRO provides DASH and AIM-T management features, while Dell adds SafeBIOS, SafeID, quantum-resistant BIOS verification, and 36 months of ProSupport Next Business Day Onsite
