And previews the XPS 12

And previews the XPS 12
Welcome to a laptop battery specialist of the dell laptop battery
Dell's XPS 13 (2015) Ultrabook was a hit, so, not surprisingly, the company has launched much the same thing with a bigger 15.6-inch screen, while upgrading the processors on both systems to sixth-generation Intel Skylake.
The XPS 15 looks exactly like the XPS 13, and also has an "Infinity Edge" display with very narrow bezels, developed with Sharp. This has enabled Dell to reduce the size of the machine. Where the XPS 13 fitted a 13.3-inch screen into a body closer to the 11.6-inch form factor, the XPS 15 has been reduced to fit a 14-inch form factor.
Powerful 15.6-inch Windows laptops with like dell MT186 battery, Dell PP32L Battery, Dell WU841 Battery, Dell Latitude E5400 Battery, Dell Latitude E5500 Battery, Dell XPS M1730 Battery, Dell HG307 Battery, Dell XG528 Battery, Dell N877N Battery, Dell J037N Battery, Dell Vostro 1220 Battery, Dell Inspiron 14V Batterygenerally end up as desktop replacements, but the XPS 15 could realistically serve as a portable. It's not ultra-light at 3.9lbs (1.78kg), but it's lighter than a 15.4 inch MacBook Pro (4.5lbs, 2.04kg), and not much heavier than a 13.3-inch MacBook Pro (3.5lbs, 1.58kg). The thing you lose compared with bigger 15.6-inch designs is the dedicated number keypad.
The XPS 15 also has the option of a 4K Ultra HD screen with a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels, compared the Retina MacBook Pro's 2880 x 1800. For graphics professionals who want something better than the integrated Intel 5600 graphics, there's an optional Nvidia GeForce GTX 960M with 2GB of GDDR5 memory. A Thunderbolt 3/USB Type-C combo port allows for further expansion via a docking station.
The specification looks competitive with Microsoft's Surface Book, but at a lower price.
In a brief hands-on, I was impressed. The screen is brilliant, the backlit keyboard is good, and the trackpad is excellent. The keyboard felt like an improvement on the XPS 13 (2105) that I had on loan for review, but it's impossible to be sure when you don't have the two machines side by side. However, if you've experienced the XPS 13, the new XPS 15 feels very much the same, only bigger.
The new XPS 13 is just like the old one, only with a Skylake processor - which includes better graphics - more storage, more memory, and better battery life. It also has the new Thunderbolt 3/USB Type-C combo port, which allows for further expansion via a docking station. However, the weight has increased slightly, from 2.6lbs to 2.7lbs.
Also, XPS 13 buyers can now get up to 16GB of DDR4 memory, and up to 1TB of SSD storage. Dell's Paul Craddock said that, in the future, the maximum memory will be increased to 32GB.
What about battery life? Tricky question. Dell says the new XPS 13 delivers "up to 18 hours, 14 minutes of battery life with a Full HD display" while the XPS 15 offers "up to 17 hours with a Full HD display, 84WHr battery and SSD".
