xps 14

 

i originally planned to reformat it and install windows on the ssd cache but that plan was squashed when the cache was only 8gb. buying an ssd for it now which will give even better battery life and make it a little lighter. overall still a very good...

battery life is outstanding. i can watch movies non stop for 5 hours. just regular use on and off it lasts all day on a single charge ; pretty fast in daily operations. pretty much everything comes up instantly and closes instantly. no hiccups ; loud...

2 usb ports, neither are on the mouse side of the computer ; 32 gb ssd cache shows to only be 8 gb on my partition manager

Update

 

The other reviewer is obviously Dell, giving it that many starts? not a confirmed owner also nice try Dell

Same as before

This laptop is garbage, confirmed by Dell directly this model and the 15 inch version have BAD wifi cards. Dell is offering to ship out an UGLY HUGE wifi usb dongle that takes up one of my available 2 slots, that was before disconnecting my call after...

It is a little heavy if you need to carry it all day. And I think Macbook has better touchpad.

For the first time I am highly frustrated with Amazon and Dell. I have owned Dell computers for about 10 years now and it seems the quality continues to diminish. I opened the box after waiting 8 days for the computer (so much for prime)and out of the...

XPS 14

 

Love it! I have had my XPS 14 for about a week now. I originally purchased the XPS 13, but ended up taking it back because I didn't want to spend $1500 on last year's technology. I debated on waiting for Dell to update the XPS 13, but then I decided to...

So close but no cigar

 

I am a mac lover that has been forced to switch to a PC due to new job- not wanting to run parallels for everything. So far, I have tried a Sony Vaio, the new samsung slim 15" and now this machine. This was far better than both the sony and panasonic...
