Dell is offering\u00a04G LTE wireless connectivity on Windows 8 tablets<\/h3>\n

Dell is now offering 4G LTE on its XPS 10 — a feature conspicuously absent on most Windows 8 tablets.<\/p>\n

“Today, we’re introducing an AT&T 4G LTE mobile broadband version for US customers on Dell.com, providing professionals with the same fast, reliable, high-speed internet connection as on their smartphones for connectivity anytime, anywhere,” Dell said in a statement Thursday.<\/p>\n

The XPS 10 is a bit of an oddball tablet among the top-tier PC makers.<\/p>\n

It’s one of the few tablets to use the RT version of Windows 8. And it’s even a rarer bird because Dell<\/a> has opted for a Qualcomm ARM chip, not Nvidia’s version of ARM (used by Microsoft in its Surface RT tablet, for example).<\/p>\n

But in this case, that’s an advantage. Qualcomm is very good at integrating LTE into its silicon, allowing Dell to offer its XPS 10 with a Snapdragon S4 1.5GHz processor-plus-LTE, courtesy a Qualcomm Gobi modem.<\/p>\n

It’s not cheap, though. Adding LTE bumps up the price $100 to $749, which includes 64GB of flash storage.<\/p>\n

That said, by comparison, a 64GB iPad 4 with LTE is priced at $829 from Apple<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
