Perspectives
Jeff Clark, Vice Chairman and Chief Operating Officer at Dell Technologies, said, “We’re getting back to our roots with a fresh focus on consumer and gaming. XPS is back, better than ever, with a complete redesign that delivers outstanding craftsmanship in our thinnest, lightest form factors yet. We’re also bringing back the XPS 13 as our most accessible XPS ever. In gaming, we’re building on recent momentum and effectively doubling Alienware’s notebook lineup. These moves are about broadening our portfolio and expanding our coverage so we can reach more customers with the best products at every price point.”
XPS Returns With Complete Redesign
Dell re-introduces the XPS line with a streamlined design for the first time. The XPS logo appears on the cover. The XPS 14 and XPS 16 feature CNC-machined aluminum, improved interfaces, sharp displays, and strong performance. They lead the industry in battery life, up to 27 hours of Netflix or over 40 hours of local video playback.
These are Dell’s thinnest laptops, measuring just 14.6 mm. The XPS-14 weighs roughly 3 lb, more than half a pound lighter than the previous generation, and the XPS-16 weighs almost 3.6 lb, lighter than its predecessor. Available with Tandem OLED (organic light-emitting diode) display options and Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors. The built-in Intel Arc graphics feature 12 XE cores, specialized processing units that enhance graphics performance. The new XPS line delivers impressive visuals with a balanced focus on portability and performance.
Later this year, Dell will add more XPS models in new styles and prices, including the XPS 13, the thinnest, lightest, and most affordable XPS yet.
