Product Overview

Dell Precision 3561 is a 15.6-inch mobile workstation. A more affordable alternative to the full-featured Precision 7560, the 3561 comes with some compromises but is comparable in many aspects.
Like the 7560, the Precision 3561 uses 11th-gen Intel Core or Xeon processors, though it does not have access to the most expensive Xeon option. It also loses access to NVIDIA's RTX Ax000-series GPUs, having only T600 and T1200 to choose from. Nevertheless, the 3561 is ISV-certified.
Display-wise, the Precision 3561 has a large set of options, though the best 4K display falls short of the standards found in more premium models. It has access to WiFi 6E, though its WWAN capability is limited to 4G LTE.
Overall, the 3561 is a unique laptop that fills the gap between Dell's increasingly thin Latitude lineup and the full-featured mobile workstations. It is particularly similar in design to the Latitude 5520, even though the Precision is much thicker and more powerful.
