- Is the OLED screen worth it over the standard panel?
- Yes for color-critical work: 3840x2400 OLED gives deeper contrast and wider gamut than typical IPS panels. The trade-off is higher power draw and possible burn-in with static toolbars.
- Can I upgrade the RAM or storage later?
- RAM is soldered LPDDR5X, so 64 GB is fixed at purchase. The 2 TB SSD is the storage to configure up front; check service access before assuming it is user-replaceable.
- How does it compare with the Precision 5680?
- Both are 16-inch Precision models with similar chassis and OLED options. The 5690 moves to the Core Ultra 9 185H, so expect better efficiency and newer integrated graphics rather than a redesign.
- Is 60Hz a problem for this laptop?
- For CAD, photo and video work, 60Hz is fine and keeps power use down. If you also game or want smoother scrolling, a high-refresh panel would suit you better.
- What is a fair price for this configuration?
- The only new price found is $2,999.99 at Newegg as of November 7, 2026. Compare against other 64 GB, 2 TB OLED workstations before buying, since this is a single listing.
- Does it come with Windows 11 Pro?
- Yes, Windows 11 Pro is included, which adds BitLocker, Remote Desktop host and domain join over the Home edition.
- Where is the Dell Precision 5690 16-inch OLED Mobile Workstation cheapest?
- At Newegg, for $2,999.99, as of our latest check.
