ASUS launched a bunch of new laptops and convertibles at its press event at Computex in Taipei yesterday. Now Dell has launched a slew of new laptops and convertibles at the same event. The most interesting device in its lineup is the Inspiron 17 7000, which is the world's first 17-inch 2-in-1 laptop. The convertible comes with an infrared camera to let you login into Windows 10 via facial recognition using the Windows Hello feature.

The Dell Inspiron 17 7000 convertible sports a huge 17-inch full HD display and is powered by sixth-gen Intel Core processors.


Its 360-degree rotatable hinge allows it to be used in four modes - tablet, laptop, tent and stand.
