In our Dell XPS 13 review, we loved its attractive, premium chassis and powerful performance. We were also impressed by its bezel-less display and gave it a 5 out of 5-star rating and our hard to get Editor's Choice award. The Dell XPS 13 review unit we tested had a Core i7-1065G7 CPU/8GB RAM configuration.

In real-world testing, it took everything we threw at it and like a champ. We expect this laptop's i7-10510U/16GB RAM multitasking performance to be even more seamless.

At a weight of 2.8 pounds and measuring 11.6 x 7.8 x 0.6-inches, the Dell XPS 13 is one of the most ultraportable laptops around. It's on a par with the MSI Prestige 14 (2.8 pounds, 12.8 x 8.5 x 0.6 inches), and lighter than the Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 (2.9 pounds, 12.1 x 8.8 x 0.6 inches) and the MacBook Pro (13-inch 2019 with Touch Bar) (4.4 pounds, 12.8 x 8.9 x 1 inches).

Port-wise, the XPS 13 supplies you with two Thunderbolt 3 ports, a USB Type-C port with power delivery and DisplayPort, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a microSD reader. If you require more ports, we recommend you invest in an external USB hub.

If you're looking for a cheaper MacBook-like notebook, the Dell XPS 13 is a solid pick.
