UPDATE: Dell claims the function buttons were switched to make room for more cooling. So my comment claiming this was unnecessary form over function may not have completely been fair :) 👉 Our Favorite Laptops: www.justjosh.tech/best-tech/ 👇 Best Laptops & Deals - Best for Programmers: www.justjosh.tech/best-tech/Best-Laptops-for-Coding - Best for Students: www.justjosh.tech/best-tech/Best-Laptops-for-Students - Best for Gamers: www.justjosh.tech/best-tech/Best-Laptops-for-Gaming - Best Deals on MacBooks: www.justjosh.tech/best-tech/Best-Apple-MacBook-Laptops - Best 14 inch Laptops: www.justjosh.tech/best-tech/Best-14inch-Laptop ► Follow Me: - Josh's New Channel: www.youtube.com/@JustJoshBusiness - Instagram: instagram.com/justjosh.life - X: twitter.com/JustJoshLife - TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@justjoshtech - Discord: discordapp.com/invite/MHrS4wG 👉 Our RU-vid Gear: www.justjosh.tech/best-tech/Our-RU-vid-Gear

Still not convinced Dell is at top of my " need a new computer soon". I have an extremely older Dell still running when quality meant something ,computer store said they couldn't replace drivers because its a Dell . WT ....why? Dell keeps changing their new laptops as to what the pricing mkt will work best for them but with too product problems for the price .

@wongbmw1 2 года назад

Ya, I bought the 2022 LG Gram 17. It's a different laptop in size compared to the xps 13, but similar conclusion when compared to Apple's macbooks and I have the m1 MBA. The Gram is insanely light and that's important now covid is mostly over, things have opened up and I go out a lot. I program full stack, azure, and write for a tech blog so the screen real estate is important. But it's really the 1260p that ruined it. The performance is good, but at the trade off of higher heat/higher performance/higher fan noise or lower heat/lower performance/lower fan noise, not the goldilock of low heat/low fan noise/high performance. The WQXGA display would've been decent had my eyes not tasted the retina 227 ppi display of the MBA, and the 178 ppi looks pixelated and not as sharp in comparison. But the good side is that I appreciate how LG listened and fixed a couple of things noted unanimously by other reviewers that I follow (Verge, PCMag, Notebookcheck) from the prior generation, namely low speaker volume and glossy display. If only LG put in an AMD chip in there which has a higher CPU/watt, and put in a 4k display and the Gram 17 would've been amazing. But I do hope you review that thing as the Gram 17 is a class on its own in terms of screen size and weight. Have a good day Josh!

@Piketom1 2 года назад

I was a bit unsure about the redesign at first but it has really grown on me. I love how clean and futuristic the computer looks. I've always loved how small the XPS 13 is too. My 14" MacBook pro is fantastic and looks far better than the older 13" model but the XPS 13 plus still looks so much better and is much more portable.

@User-cb4jm 2 года назад

I 100% agree about the futuristic design - the XPS has always been a looker, and that’s what draws me in. But while this LOOKS more futuristic, I’d argue that the MBP FEELS more futuristic in daily use - i.e. having a laptop that’s cool to the touch under load, one that doesn’t have screaming fans under heavy load, having incredible battery life relative to the performance it’s capable of and relative to that it’s running a high resolution high refresh screen. While this no doubt improves things from the 9310 model which I’d used and was fairly disappointed with in terms of heat and battery life, I’m worried from Josh’s early impressions that it doesn’t do enough to improve on its past bugbears. I’m glad the 12th gen i7 performance matches Apple Silicon, but in my day to day use, I’m not running benchmarks but rather trying to get as much light to moderate tasks done on a single charge without feeling like I have a space heater on my lap. Not to mention it does it all with a better webcam (hopefully the one on the Plus is better than the notoriously bad one on the 9310) and speakers and a slick 120hz screen. Interesting to see how the $1299 base i5 model stacks up against the M2 MacBook Air.

@Piketom1 2 года назад

@@User-cb4jm The MacBook Air is a probably a closer competitor to the XPS 13 than the 14” MacBook Pro. Neither really has the cooling ability for sustained workloads but the powerful hardware will make them both feel very snappy for basic computing tasks. I’d be willing to bet that the average customer for both the Air and XPS 13 doesn’t actually need the performance of the I7 or M2 but wants to spend good money on a small premium notebook that is plenty powerful for anything they will do.

Try running some basic benchmarks of any new XPS vs the MBP....unplugged.....document your results....then start at 100% battery for each and run the same benchmarks until each unit powers off... document your results....see which laptop you would the take on a work trip...or anywhere away from a wall outlet

@JarrodsTech 2 года назад

I used an XPS 13 1-2 years ago and said it was the portable option I'd pick if I wanted to spend more money and didn't need to game on the go. Instead I went for a cheap 12.5" Xiaomi for way less money for travel where I don't need to edit video (not very often), but it's obviously nowhere near as good! New XPS looks interesting, but I'll wait for the touchpad DLC 😉 then again MacBook Air would probably be what I go for just for the battery life.

@fahim.foysal 2 года назад

Would you recommend the Xiaomi considering it's price?

@ddushyanth 2 года назад

Josh, as usual great video. Perfect timing of your review. I'm debating between Dell XPS Plus 13 and Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Yoga Gen 6, both you have experience with. If both are available around the same price, XPS with 12th gen i7 and Lenovo with 11th Gen i7, what would you recommend? Appreciate your feedback. Thanks!

@yeahBradley 2 года назад

You say Dell chose form over function for the F-keys, but isn't it more 50/50? I read they switched to capacitive buttons to enable a larger heatsink and fans to cool the chips. In ultrabooks every mm has to count for something.

Thanks

I just sold my 2021 Dell XPS 15 with the 11800H. The edge below the mouse pad stabbed my wrists. Are these more comfortable on the wrists? Other than that, it was a great laptop. I just need higher MSAA for architectural renders. The 3050Ti in it exported at 16x. The A2000 12gb in the micro itx PC I'm building can render at 64x MSAA. Cleaner renders in Sketchup.

@gracesmith5021 2 года назад

I am currently using the XPS 9310 and yeah I have experienced all these issues, I had regretted not buying the 15" x360, perhaps the thermal issues might have been reduced due to the larger chasis, but then again I had heard you talking about the trackpad issues. This year I have decided to shift to HP. Envy that comes at almost half the price with a 12th gen cpu, the only trade off is a Full HD OLED screen as compared to a 3.3K one, but then again that would hit the battery massively as 12th gen itself is a power hungry processor. Would you recommend a 12th gen i7 P or H series with 32 GB DDR5 RAM or a 11th Gen i7 H series and an RTX 3050 and 8 GB soldered on DDR4 RAM for light on the go video editing ? ( For someone petite who is not strong enough to carry an Alienware around, under 2 kg machines. lol)

I was thinking of purchasing a notebook of this model for studies, for university studies, using Microsoft Office, writing texts in Microsoft Word, and using Adobe Photoshop, for this use do you think there is a problem of overheating? And in your opinion, between the XPS13 PLUS and the Samsung Galaxy Book2 360, which one would you advise me to buy?

@jansillanpaa41 Год назад

I’m currently using the XPS 13 Plus for uni studies, I have the i7-1260p model with 16GB RAM and FHD+ display. It does get quite warm with Office apps, Chrome and Spotify running at the same time. I initially had the Galaxy Book2 Pro but I returned it because the dark finish drove me insane with how easily it showed fingerprints and other marks. It really depends on what kind of degree you’re doing, I’m doing ICT engineering and thus far the Dell has been fine, though a bit hot like I mentioned. I am a little concerned about certain quality control issues that some users have been bringing up, namely the keyboard. Hope this helped!

@evermore6500 2 года назад

Hey! I'm Absolutely not an Apple specialist, but I think you have to be really careful with Apple devices and check if all of what you'll use is compatible with them. Sometimes, some programs you use could not be available on MacOS. MacBooks seem to be really amazing machines that beat the XPS on several points (for example MacBooks are known for their remarkable battery life but also great performance and build quality) but if you are currently on Windows, you should really be careful about the differences between MacOS and Windows. Downsides of MacOS include potential lack of compatibility as I mentioned, but also from what I know worse window management (resizing windows etc.). However, there are also many advantages of using MacOS versus Windows. So be REALLY careful with the OS, check comparison videos, I'm sure Reddit or RU-vid will give many precious advices on when you should prefer MacOS or Windows based on what you do (so mostly Computer Science I assume). Good luck for your choice, and please do REAL researches because I'm again not a specialist at all and could unintentionally say wrong things.

I actually think the cooling solution is pretty amazing in this XPS13 Plus. There is not other laptop of its size and weight that can pull 40W sustained after a 60W burst, or 20W sustained while being quieter than most other Intel ultrabooks. The problem is Intel. If this laptop had Ryzen 6800U or HS or the M2 chip, it would be much cooler than MBP13 M2 or other Ryzen laptop of the same size. MBP14 is a larger and heavier laptop, but the XPS13 Plus managed to scored better than the MBP14 in Cinebench R23 while in Ultra Performance, despite its smaller size and weight.

The lack of headphone jack and physical function and escape keys is a real deal breaker, I hope they return them back in future model even at the expense of thicker chassis. Instead an upgrade would be having a bigger battery, brighter high refresh rate OLED or Mini-LED displays, More key travel and ports,1080p webcam with built-in webcam privacy shutter and studio microphones.

@luoya5783 2 года назад

The lack of headphone jack is such a strange choice. I can somewhat understand it for phones, but for a laptop this big it makes no sense. People use their laptops at home too. Without a 3.5 jack, you can't use external speaker without using a dongle.

From the XPS team here. Very good review :). I'm glad you mentioned Apple frequently, we try to compare us vs them as well. We all hope Intel gets better soon so we can have more power efficient chips! One thing to add, the XPS 13 plus is one of the few with Intel P series chips, pulling 28w compared to the U series with 15w. That's why we removed the headset and the F row, we needed room to cool the beefier chip.

@JustJoshTech 2 года назад

Hi Gabriel. Thanks for this. Nice to meet you. A couple of viewers mentioned that as well re F row and and headphone jack. You guys did do a very good job with the laptop. Its certainly a powerhouse for its size. If you or someone from the Dell team wants to connect, please email me. It would be great to have a Dell contact

Dell need to use AMD U series or H series in XPS to get equal or better performance for long run with least fan noise, double graphical performance and double battery life. AMD's U series processor is in another league, it can compete with Mac book on efficiency in lower wattage without much performance loss.

Wouldn't a more direct competitor to the MacBook Pro 14 be the XPS 15? I feel the XPS 13 line is positioned more to compete with the MacBook Pro 13. Perhaps a better comparison to have made would be between the XPS 13 Plus and the MacBook Pro 13 with M2.

@essamal-mansouri2689 2 года назад

Even if you compare this to a Macbook Air (13"), the Dell XPS is only around 10% faster (multi-core) and around 30% SLOWER in single-core. If we run it on battery, it is around 30% slower than a Macbook Air in multicore. It also produces more noise, has a worse battery life, costs more, has a worse webcam and speakers. Dell is also only offering 4k or 1080p, so you'd have to upgrade to 4k to get a better screen. With only a screen upgrade, it costs $1600. That's $600 dollars more expensive atleast (Macbooks are often discounted now that the M2 is out). So all that said, comparing the XPS 13 Plus to the 2-year-old Macbook Air, shows that the Dell laptop is slower and has a worse webcam and speakers. Yet it produces more noise, less graphical performance, and has worse battery life. But still, I would give the win to Dell on the monitor and overall design. It just looks so good and the Macbook looks like it was designed 10 years ago.

@User-cb4jm 2 года назад

As someone who tried out the XPS 9310 OLED and was dissatisfied with the amount of heat generated and the poor battery life (+ awful webcam). I went with the MBP 14 after that. I was worried I’d regret not giving the XPS another chance (I love the XPS aesthetic) when I heard about the Plus, but as it appears, the areas which I care about most like battery life and surface temps still lag behind the Mac. Plus the smooth 120hz and phenomenal speakers I’ve gotten used to. I’d come from a decade of Windows to the past few years on Mac, and was open to go back to Windows with the 9310 and then settled back on the Apple Silicon Mac. I’m software agnostic and usually that means the performance and spec of a Windows laptop would traditionally win me over, but not so much in the era of Apple Silicon. It really addresses the heat and battery life issues that plagued other laptops for years.

The biggest issue with these thin and light laptops appears to be Intel and the manufacturers putting 30w chips in a chassis that can't handle it while still not out performing Apple's offerings. It really just shows that Qualcomm and Microsoft need to get ARM based laptops out yesterday or else the conclusion of all laptops in this form factor is going to be "just buy the Macbook".

@AyoHues 2 года назад

Great video. Once you’ve done the i5 vs i7 comparison, how about a future one pitching this against the best Ultrabooks from Asus & Lenovo, especially if you can get hold of high spec AMD powered models (often unobtanium). It would be very interesting to see which laptop earns the ultrabook crown. Hoping Dell get thermal performance sorted for the 15” & 17” XPS Plus but the real problem is that Intel chips are too inefficient & power hungry.
