Customers are saying

Customers love the XPS 13's lightweight design, impressive battery life, and excellent performance. Many appreciate its compact size and high-quality build, along with the ample RAM and storage. However, some users wish it had more ports, and a few have noted that it can get warm and the fan can be noticeable at times. Overall, the positive feedback on portability, performance, and build quality outweighs the concerns about ports and heat.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    I hate this computer. It is my work machine, and I was really excited about the specs, particularly the screen, but I absolutely hate it. The mouse is terrible - it sticks sometimes and the click-response is slow. The keyboard sounds very nice, and I do appreciate the compact keys, although I would imagine someone with larger fingers might find them challenging, but the non-buttons for the top row are only about 75% responsive and very annoying. This is the up/down volume, brightness, home, end, insert, delete row. It's very slim and light, which is something I'm happy about. The battery life is dismal. I only get about 3hrs of full use out of mine and it gives me VERY little warning before it needs power or turns off. The design of the top and where it meets the body makes it actually fairly hard to open - all sides are flat. A bevel would have been nice for grip. The lack of ports means the need for dongles, but this is to be expected with a slim and light machine such as this; it's just a little more annoying than I anticipated. The screen resolution and color is beautiful. Amazing. No complaints there! The physical design could use some work.

      Hello Disappointed,

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize for the battery performance issues you are experiencing with your XPS 13 laptop. It's important for us to hear about inconsistencies in our products for consideration of future development. Below I have provided steps with the full articles that can help you improve the battery performance of your laptop.

      Here are the steps to help improve the battery performance of your laptop:
      1. On the notification area of the taskbar, right-click the Battery icon.
      2. On the options list, click Power Options.
      3. Select a power plan on the battery meter, such as Power Saver or Balanced. Windows 10 has a built-in 'Battery Saver' mode that can be activated to extend your system's battery life. The Battery Saver mode will monitor and limit background activity and other features such as push notifications. You do have the option to enable or disable this mode within settings or within advanced Battery Saver settings, you can customize the mode to best suit your needs.

      a) Click on the Action Center icon in the taskbar and select the tile for Battery Saver.
      b) If running Cortana, type Battery Saver into the search box and select from the results.
      Within the Battery Saver settings page, you will be able to turn on and off the feature and customize the feature to best meet your needs.
      c) Turn the Battery Saver On or Off.
      d) Additional settings are available via the Battery use and Battery saver settings links.
      e) Battery use shows further info on apps and their power usage.
      f) Battery Saver Settings screen allows you to customize further the Battery Saver feature.

    Bought an Open Box that was 3 months old. Bluetooth connection, second USB c port, camera, and finger print not functional after 4 weeks, LCD dead pixels. Besides all the functional issues, the computer it self is high functioning

    Dell Junk

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This laptop was to be dedicated to work. Within 3 weeks, it stopped working. The laptop was not abused in anyway. It was not dropped, bumped, crushed or had a liquid spilled on it. After working with Dell Support for nearly 3 hours they concluded the motherboard needed to be replaced. About a week later, a Dell tech came out to my house to replace the integrated motherboard and hard drive. As a result, the operating system has to be re-installed. Another 45 min with Dell support and they conclude I have to ship it back to Dell to have the operating system installed. I may have it back it another week. Meantime, I have lost more than half a day to deal with a brand new laptop that is suppose to help solve problems. And I had to buy another laptop for work. The support staff have been professional and helpful but the structure to resolve issues puts to burden on me. This was a problem I did not create. I'll never buy another Dell again.

    Buyer Beware!!!

    STAY AWAY from Dell. I purchased my XPS 12 months ago with the very expensive Premium Protection Plus option. My screen quit working and Dell is unable to get somebody out to fix my computer while also refusing to send me a replacement. Dell has gone downhill. If you purchase a Dell, they will promise you the world with their Premium Plus protection but please know that Dell will refuse to help you if your computer breaks. do not waste your money on Dell or their very expensive support plans. They will weasel their way out of helping fix their broken product.
