Dell Revamps XPS Laptop Line With 2-in-1 Tablet

Dell Revamps XPS Laptop Line With 2-in-1 Tablet
Welcome to a laptop battery specialist of the dell laptop battery
Microsoft Corp.MSFT -1.03% isn’t the only company introducing a new Windows 10 hybrid tablet-laptop this week. On Thursday, Dell Inc. revealed a trio of new XPS laptops, including the XPS 12: a tablet that docks with a sleek keyboard to become a laptop. The new XPS 13 and XPS 15 have their own bragging points: Dell claims it’s built the smallest 13-inch and 15-inch laptops on the planet.
Dell is clearly challenging Microsoft’s Surface Pro with the XPS 12. But unlike previous Surfaces, this one sits rigidly upright, like a laptop, when locked into its keyboard base.
The 12.5-inch tablet half of the XPS 12 boasts a resolution of either full HD (1,920×1,080 pixels) or 4K Ultra HD (3,840×2,160 pixels). Just be aware, by opting for more pixels, you lose battery with such as dell 8012P battery, Dell Latitude CS Battery, Dell 8N884 Battery, Dell Latitude E4310 Battery, Dell Studio 14Z Battery, Dell Studio 1440 Battery, Dell 0K899K Battery, Dell M916K Battery, Dell PU556 Battery, Dell Inspiron 1318 Battery, Dell XPS M1330 Battery, Dell JN149 Batterylife, which is 10 hours at best, says Dell.
The tablet has a magnetic attachment to its keyboard base, locking in for most positions and releasing with a one-handed gesture when at a specific angle. Like Microsoft’s Surface Pro and upcoming Surface Book hybrid, the XPS 12’s display can handle touch input and stylus input (using Dell’s Active Pen stylus) for note taking, drawing, marking up screenshots of websites and other digital pen needs.
No matter the resolution, the display has a 8-megapixel rear camera, and a 5-megapixel front camera for photos and video chats as well. Since the XPS 12 can function as a tablet, its Intel Core M5 mobile chipset is situated beneath the display. Along its edge are two USB Type-C ports, which allow it to charge up as well as power external drives and monitors.
The XPS 12 will start at $999—including the keyboard dock and a protective case. It will ship on Nov. 5.
The design of the XPS 13 is already known, not least because it was arguably the best Windows laptop of last year. Despite its 13-inch screen, the device itself is about the size of a traditional 11-inch laptop. Dell pulled this off by making the bezel running along the screen’s edge dramatically thin. Like last year, the display still comes in two resolutions: 1,920 x 1,080 pixels and 3,200 x 1,800 pixels. Only the higher resolution display will double as a touchscreen.
The new XPS 13 has been rebuilt under the hood, however. Inside, the XPS 13 will be powered by Intel’s sixth-generation Core i7 processor and up to 16GB of RAM. Battery life is promised to come in around 18 hours. In addition to two USB ports, the new version gets a USB Type-C port with Thunderbolt 3 interface built in, so it can be used for drives and monitors alike. (You may have to track down some new cables, however.)
The XPS 13 ships Thursday at a starting price of $799.
