We’re in two minds about the Dell Adamo. On the one hand, it’s jaw shatteringly beautiful, but on the other, what it lacks in size it makes up for in the length of its pricetag.
To make matters worse, we’ve done a bit of number crunching and it looks like the Dell Adamo is even more expensive in the UK than elsewhere. Read on for the stats.
The cheaper 13.4 inch Dell Adamo will set you back a rather hefty £1,649 in the UK, a good £378 more than the entry level MacBook Air. But we’ve done a pit of currency conversion and it looks like the Dell Adamo is significantly worse value here than across the pond.
The same Dell Adamo will set you back $1,999 in the US, and at current rates, that’s £220 less than the UK price. Or if you want to look at it another way, 13% less in America, or an alarming 15% more in the UK. But the translation gets even worse for the premium 4GB version of the Dell Adamo, which costs £2,249 here but only $2,700 (£1,930) in America. In other words, 16.5% more!
Damn, Dell. We didn’t think it was possible for exchange rates to get any worse during the recession, but according to the Dell Adamo pricing, they just have. We’re heading off to grumble like misers, but we’ll let you know if any more details on the Dell Adamo fall out of the sky in the meantime.
