Dell has unveiled its new XPS 13<\/strong><\/a>, a laptop designed to achieve “the most premium and superior computing experience with the finest materials”.<\/p>\n

Dell said the laptop is smaller and has a thinner profile, but a larger display, than its predecessor.<\/p>\n

“Elegantly crafted with machined aluminum, carbon fibre, woven glass fibre, and hardened Corning Gorilla Glass, the XPS 13 has a flawless finish in a durable, lightweight design,” said Dell.<\/p>\n

Display<\/h3>\n

Dell said the display on the new XPS 13 is a unique engineering feat, with narrow bezels on every side that reduce its InfinityEdge borders and create a smaller and thinner form factor.<\/p>\n

With a 16:10 aspect ratio, the new display offers more screen space. “And holding true to what XPS fans love most, this new design delivers a 13.4-inch display in an 11-inch form factor – fitting neatly on an airplane tray.”<\/p>\n

The top-of-the-range unit features a 3,840 x 2,400 (UHD+) touch display, while Full HD options are also available.<\/p>\n

Hardware<\/h3>\n

The company has packed the latest hardware into the laptop, too, and the XPS 13 comes with Intel’s 10-generation Core processors.<\/p>\n

Core i3, i5, and i7 CPUs are on offer – with the most powerful option the Intel Core i7-1065G7.<\/p>\n

Graphics options are Intel UHD or Iris Plus, while users are able to install up to 32GB 3,733MHz LPDDR4x RAM.<\/p>\n

Up to 2TB of PCIe SSD storage can then be fitted, while the entry-level laptop features 256GB of storage space.<\/p>\n

On the software side, the XPS 13 also offers users the choice between Windows 10 or Ubuntu 18.04LTS, with the latter installed in the Developer Edition of the laptop.<\/p>\n

Dell said the pricing and availability of the new XPS 13 is as follows:<\/p>\n
