The 9370 has a newer CPU? Probably just go for that if the price is the same.

Hi, I'm looking for a laptop for school work and I'd mainly be doing work on office, web browsing and such. A high battery life is the highest priority and I don't plan on doing any gaming on it. Recommended specs would be-

 

8 GB of RAM (preferably DDR4)

Quad core i5 or i7

13 inch and 1080p display

 256 GB SSD 

Windows

 

Budget- $1200 to $1400 (USD)

 

Thank you in advance!

XPS 13

Or just grab a Used thinkpad tablet with an i7 and replace the battery.

 I'm not sure between the XPS 13 9360 and the 9370 so which one would be a better choice? I know that the 9360 has a better battery life and USB type A ports, although an adapter can be used for the 9370. Is the 9370 worth it over the 9360 or not?
