Dell's new XPS 13 with edge-to-edge display!

Dell is back with a brand new XPS 13 this year at the Consumer Electronics Show, and it looks like the best one yet.

 

  • It has an incredibly tiny 5.2mm bezel on the top and sides.
  • And it also has 3200x1800 resolution with Touch Screen display.
  • It has aluminum and carbon fiber helping to keep the weight to 2.6 pounds or 2.8 pounds on the touchscreen versions.
  • Dell is also using the latest 5th generation Intel Core i processors, starting at the Core i3 for the base model with options up to a Core i7 version.
  • Memory options include only 4GB or 8GB.
  • Dell is claiming the new XPS 13 is the "smallest 13-inch laptop on the planet

 

It’s using a glass button and a precision trackpad, which is something Microsoft has been encouraging OEMs to implement. Precision trackpads allow Windows 8.1 to directly control the pointer, multi-touch, and gesture support in trackpads, making them feel more like a mini touch-screen with smoother scrolling and better zooming and panning support.

 

  • Dell claims you'll get 15 hours of battery life

The original XPS 13 had disappointing battery life, but that might not be the case with the 2015 edition.

Dell is promising a massive 15 hours of battery life if you pick the 1920 x 1080 display option and a Core i5.

But some of those gains are likely related to Intel’s Broadwell processor and the use of a power saving Sharp IGZO display.

 

Pricing: Dell is planning to release the new XPS 13 today in the US starting at $799 for the Core i3 model, all the way up to $1,899 for the Core i7 version with a QHD+ panel, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD.

Wow, this is awesome.

 

An original, sleek and powerful design that could actually compete with the build quality of the MBP I hope.

 

But what will it cost?  ugh

 

Just saw price, not bad.  Will need to see their website.

Looks like a Vaio Pro with a Vaio Flip design.

The problem is that this is an nVidia product and scoring any nVidia product a "zero" is also highly predictive of the number of nVidia products the reviewer will receive for review in the future.

I wasn't wrong. It's extremely rare that I am. I provided sources as well. Different devs can disagree. Further, we now have confirmed discrepancy from Twitter about he use of the pre-release 1080 driver in AMD's demo despite the release 1080 driver having been out a week prior.

You apparently haven't seen his responses to questions on YouTube. He is very condescending and aggressive in his comments with which there is little justification. He acts totally different in his videos. I don't necessarily care for this content style and there is nothing really unique about him or his channel. His endless dick jokes and toilet humor are annoying as well.

still 4GB? That's bad news for people like me who live in places where 8GB options are 300 dollars pricer.

 

update: wow the pricing is impressive

Yes mini display port and no HDMI!  Could this be the year HDMI begins to die?  

 

I really actually like the laptop though.
