As remote working and learning became the new norm in 2020, the company’s Client Solutions Group – which includes Dell PCs, notebooks and tablets – flourished.
Dell Technologies reported record revenues of $12.3 billion for its Client Solutions Group (CSG) during its third fiscal quarter, which ended Oct. 30, representing an increase of 8 percent year over year.
“Our client solutions group had an outstanding quarter delivering record shipments, revenue and operating income,” said Jeff Clarke, chief operating officer and vice chairman of Dell Technologies during the company’s third quarter earnings report in late November. “Our wide range of PCs, including Chromebooks, are providing students everywhere with the essential learning tool they need. The pandemic has expanded consumer use of online purchasing, which is a big area of focus for us.”
On the innovation front this year, Dell unveiled a new XPS 13 laptop, primed for work at home, as well as a new Latitude 9000 series of business notebooks.
