The company might have trouble making a reliable touchpad (still does), but make no mistake, it knows how to build a comfortable keyboard.
Like I said, Dell didn't mess with a good thing. There's also a Kensington lock slot tucked on the right edge, up near the hinge. Over on the left, we have full-size USB and HDMI sockets, a small Thunderbolt 3 port and a headphone jack, with an SD card reader and a second full-size USB connection on the right. Housed inside that slender frame is a large enough selection of ports to satisfy most power users.
Dell xps 15 vs macbook pro 2016 specs portable#
I'm not going to pretend it's as light or compact in my bag as all the 13-inch ultraportables I've been testing recently, but it still feels portable for what it is. The machine starts at 3.9 pounds, going up to 4.4 with a touchscreen, and has a tapered profile that slims to 0.45 inches thick from from 0.66. Like the x360 - and, more crucially, the MacBook Pro it competes with - the XPS 15 is relatively thin and light. Indeed, I found that using the XPS 15 in my lap was a more comfortable experience than balancing HP's big-screen Spectre x360 on my legs. Likewise, the XPS 15 crams a 15.6-inch screen into the sort of chassis you'd normally find on, say, a 14-inch system.
For the XPS 13, that meant a 13-inch display in the body of 12-inch laptop. The XPS 15 keeps all of the physical attributes that made the XPS 13 great, including a sturdy aluminum frame, soft carbon fiber palm rest, comfortable keyboard and a nearly bezel-less display that allows for a smaller footprint than you'd get otherwise.
