I haven't brought one myself, but know enough about the lineup over the years[1] to know this creates a distinction where there is none. They certainly weren't only entry-level. Been a perfect mirror of Steve Jobs-era Apple of having 2 choices, consumer and professional.
I do agree they're excited to announce an ARM laptop, but there's not a commensurate bigger "bet"/investment in hardware.
I'd argue there's less investment: Internal Dell documents has Snapdragon at $145, versus $276 for i7.[2]
