Dell has announced the new XPS 13, which measures 12.75mm thick and weighs 1kg, making it the thinnest and lightest XPS model introduced by the company to date. It features an InfinityEdge display designed to maximize screen space within a compact footprint.
The XPS 13 features a 2.5K LCD touchscreen display with 100% DCI-P3 color gamut coverage. The touchscreen is included as a standard feature across all configurations. The display also supports a variable refresh rate that automatically adjusts between 30Hz and 120Hz depending on on-screen content.
The laptop is powered by Intel Core Series 3 processors, while Intel Core Ultra Series 3 configurations will be available after launch. It supports up to 32GB of LPDDR5X memory and up to 1TB of storage. Dell has also equipped the device with a dual-fan thermal architecture.
Dell claims the XPS 13 can provide up to 17 hours of video streaming on a single charge. Intel Wi-Fi 7 connectivity is included as standard across the lineup. A backlit keyboard is also available on every configuration.
The XPS 13 features a CNC-machined aluminum chassis and is available in Sky and Storm color options. Dell says the lightweight chassis is built to the same standards as other XPS models. The laptop also includes a traditional touchpad.
