Dell today introduced the Latitude™ ATG™ D620 (All-Terrain Grade), its first semi-rugged notebook computer for customers in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) who work in tough environments.
The Latitude ATG meets military durability standards1 and is designed to protect against accidental bumps, vibration, moisture, and other elements that customers encounter working in the field.
The new system features a shock-mounted hard drive, spill-resistant keyboard, port covers and high durability paint and is designed to withstand challenging conditions commonly associated with military environments, construction sites and first responders, such as police and emergency organisations.
Customer-Driven Product Innovation
“The Latitude ATG is a prime example of Dell’s commitment to providing cutting-edge systems to meet the needs of today’s mobile workforce,” said Eric Greffier, Director of Client Products, Dell EMEA. “For professionals that predominantly work outdoors, a tougher, highly protective notebook with a screen that is easy to see in direct sunlight is critical to ensuring maximum productivity. We’re glad that we could meet that customer request with a product distinguished by industry-leading features.”
Industry-Leading Display Brightness for Optimal Outdoor Use
In response to direct customer feedback, the Latitude ATG includes a 14.1-inch display with ambient light sensor (ALS), glass overlay and anti-reflective coating. The LCD display is 1½ times brighter than most mainstream corporate notebooks for better viewing in sunlight. Customers working in the military, emergency services, construction and even the golf industry say seeing the display in full daylight is an important factor in their notebook computing experience.
