XPS

Precision engineering. Not much has changed from a visual standpoint, but the GPU update from last year's Precision 5470 is significant and worth considering for power users who want to maximize performance from a small 14-inch form factor.

Core i7-1360P vs. Core i7-1280P. Dell has updated its XPS 13 Plus 9320 this year with 13th gen Raptor Lake CPUs. Other than the name change, however, everything else remains essentially the same as on last year's Core i7-1280P configuration including even processor performance.

Tight 130 W USB-C power budget. The XPS 17 is one of the few laptops to offer GeForce RTX 4070 and RTX 4080 graphics options powered solely by a USB-C adapter. There are a few comprises for sure much like on previous models, but this latest iteration is as optimized as ever.

50 W GeForce RTX 4070 graphics. Whereas the 2022 XPS 15 topped out at GeForce RTX 3050 Ti graphics, this year's model has upped the ante to a GeForce RTX 4070. As impressive as that may sound on paper, there are significant compromises that users ought to be aware of before pulling the trigger on the latest 2023 model.

A worthy Microsoft Surface alternative. The XPS name is held to higher standards than your typical Inspiron or Vostro machine. The XPS 13 9315 2-in-1 mostly hits it out of the park even if it doesn't really offer all that much over the competing Surface Pro 8.

Like an XPS 14. Just because you're small doesn't mean you can't be as powerful as the big guns. The Precision 5470 utilizes the same Core i9 CPU currently shipping on hulking gaming laptops and other workstations over twice its size, but how does it actually perform?

Most expensive ≠ Best. The Core i7-1280P CPU is $100 more than the i7-1260P option while the OLED panel costs an additional $200 over standard IPS. Let's find out exactly what kinds of benefits these pricier options can actually bring to the table.

A Plus for performance. Not only does the Dell XPS 13 Plus have a touch bar and a completely new keyboard, but it also offers more performance than the base XPS version thanks to Alder Lake P. We review Dell's entry into the high-performance XPS world through our test unit equipped with a Core i5, 512 GB, and a Sharp Full HD display.

Risking more minimalism. P processors for the XPS Plus, U processors for the normal XPS. Dell's fragmentation shows: You can forget about the normal version with a U-class processor, if you are after fast performance in a 13-inch device. Instead, it is meant for entertainment and simple office tasks with its good runtimes, low emissions, and high-contrast FHD display.

The most powerful XPS 13 yet. The XPS 13 has been a very good subnotebook for years and Dell now offers two versions, which are not only different in terms of CPU selection. How does the new XPS 13 Plus with the 4K panel, frameless touchpad and completely new keyboard including touch bar perform in our review?

Excellent 4K display with AdobeRGB. The current Dell XPS 17 9720 is receiving the new Intel Alder Lake processors with the continued ability to combine them with RTX GPUs from Nvidia. However, compared to the predecessor, the graphics performance was reduced and the cooling is slightly weak overall. It's about time for an extensive update.

Intel 12th gen update. The Alder Lake platform has done wonders for the XPS 17 series in terms of raw performance, but it comes at a cost that power users ought to be aware of.

The Intel 12th gen update. Now in its third year, the XPS 15 9520 is another internal update to the already familiar 2020 XPS 15 9500 and 2021 XPS 15 9510. But is the fancy new Alder Lake-H CPU really enough to make a difference?

Bad price-performance ratio. The Dell XPS 15 continues to be one of the few high-end multimedia laptops that is optionally also offered without a dedicated graphics card. So while those who are looking only for a fast processor should really be at the right place here, Dell also limits the CPU performance unnecessarily.

A refined Precision 5550. Last year's Precision 5550 was a huge leap over the Precision 5540 in terms of performance and design. This year's Precision 5560 is a more minor step up but not without a few surprises along the way.

Should you even bother? A simple processor swap has done wonders for the XPS 13 convertible. Raw CPU gains are not as impressive, but the graphics are up significantly without impacting battery life or power consumption.

Premium laptop still has some software issues. Dell updates its XPS 15 and equips the new 9510 model with Tiger Lake-H processors from Intel as well as new RTX 3050 GPUs from Nvidia. There is also a new option for a 3.5K OLED touchscreen. Is it the best multimedia notebook you can get?
